This article describes changes in memory during the normal aging process from standpoint of cognitive psychology. There is now a great deal evidence to show that not one single function but may be described terms different systems differential effects aging. For example, for procedures, and some perceptual functions, few age-related changes, whereas working memory, episodic prospective decline substantially course Memory facts knowledge (semantic memory) holds up well older individuals...
Two studies are reported in which younger and older monolingual bilingual adults performed executive function tasks.In Study 1, 130 participants a Stroop task bilinguals both age groups showed less interference than monolinguals with greater benefit for adults.In 2, 108 complex working memory based on verbal or nonverbal stimuli.Bilinguals monolinguals, larger advantage the adult group task.Together, these results show that advantages depend characteristics of features tasks, effects found...
Younger and older adults who were either monolingual or bilingual tested with verbal spatial working memory (WM) span tasks. Aging was associated a greater decline in WM than WM, but the age-related declines equivalent both language groups. The participants outperformed monolinguals achieved lower levels of performance WM. This interaction between bilingualism domain also consistent across adult life span. These results are discussed terms interactions domain-general executive processing...
AbstractThe verbal fluency task is a widely used neuropsychological test of word retrieval efficiency. Both category (e.g., list animals) and letter words that begin with F) place demands on semantic memory executive control functions. However, places greater than fluency, making this well suited to investigating potential bilingual advantages in retrieval. Here we report analyses the for bilinguals monolinguals at four ages, namely, 7-year-olds, 10-year-olds, young adults older adults....
It is commonly found that memory for context declines disproportionately with aging, arguably due to a general age-related deficit in associative processes. One possible mechanism such deficits an reduction available processing resources. In two experiments we compared the effects of aging division attention younger adults on items and context. Using technique proposed by Craik (1989), linear functions relating performance their contexts were derived Young Full Attention group, Divided Older...
Memory encoding conditions can be manipulated in a variety of ways, and many these methods result improved recollection for both younger older adults relative to baseline conditions. Previous results have shown differential age-related patterns improvement, however, with some manipulations giving equal improvement young old participants, benefiting more, others more. In 2 experiments, the authors show that presenting pictures words benefited more than word generation groups equally, an...
Previous diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies revealed contradictory effects of smoking on fractional anisotropy (FA). Multiple DTI-derived indices may help to deduce the pathophysiological type white matter (WM) changes and provide more specific biomarkers WM neuropathology in whole brain young smokers. Twenty-three smokers 22 age-, education- gender-matched healthy non-smoking controls participated this study. Tract-based spatial statistics was employed investigate microstructure by...
AbstractTwo studies are reported that explore the effect of bilingualism on memory performance. Following previous reports a bilingual advantage in executive control sometimes shows greater older adults, we compared younger and monolinguals bilinguals paradigm yielded separate measures familiarity recollection. As expected, there were no consistent effects familiarity, but age language differences recollection, measure reflecting control. Younger adults superior to this measure, was minimal...
Background As a complex subjective experience, pain processing may be related to functional integration among intrinsic connectivity networks of migraine patients without aura. However, few study focused on the pattern alterations in Results Thirty-one aura and 31 age- education-matched healthy controls participated this study. After identifying default mode network, central executive network salience as core by using independent component analysis, connectivity, effective during resting...
Prospective memory (PM) is the ability to carry out a planned intention at future time. We studied PM deficits in group of community-dwelling stroke survivors compared with normal controls. Twelve patients and 12 matched controls performed series tests assessing executive function, prospective retrospective (RM). Patients less well than on laboratory measures associative RM; they also showed standard RM control. The groups did not differ more structured clinical RM, or self-rated RM. results...
Nicotine acts as an agonist at presynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and to facilitate synaptic release of several neurotransmitters including dopamine glutamate. The thalamus has the highest density in brain, which may make this area more vulnerable addictive effects nicotine. However, volume abnormalities association with smoking behaviors young smokers remains unknown.Thirty-six male 36 age-, gender- education-matched nonsmokers participated current study. nicotine dependence...
Abstract With the help of advanced neuroimaging approaches, previous studies revealed structural and functional brain changes in smokers compared with healthy non‐smokers. Homotopic resting‐state connectivity between corresponding regions cerebral hemispheres may us to deduce coordination whole young male smokers. Functional homotopy reflects an essential aspect function communication left right hemispheres, which is important for integrity function. However, few used voxel mirrored...
The Breakfast Task (Craik & Bialystok, 2006) is a computerized task that simulates the planning and monitoring requirements involved in cooking breakfast, an everyday activity important for functional independence. In Experiment 1, 28 adults performed Task, outcome measures were examined with principal component analysis to elucidate structure of cognitive processes underlying performance. Analyses revealed 2-component which putatively captured global local abilities. 2, performance was...
Smoking is one of the most prevalent dependence disorders. Previous studies have detected structural and functional deficits in smokers. However, few focused on changes resting state connectivity (RSFC) brain regions with young adult Twenty-six smokers 26 well-matched healthy non-smokers participated our study. Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) RSFC were employed to investigate Compared non-smokers, showed increased gray matter (GM) volume left putamen decreased GM anterior cingulate cortex...
Abstract Introduction Whether airway‐compromised airway–esophageal fistula (AEF) patients should undergo combined airway and esophageal stenting is controversial. This study was designed to evaluate the survival prognosis poststent interventions in AEF with airways compromised by advanced malignancy or without stents. Methods A retrospective analysis of medical records, times, 17 stents performed. Results The causes were cancer (11/17, 64.7%), lung (6/17, 29.4%), thyroid (1/17, 5.9%). All...
Introduction Cystic adventitial disease (CAD) is a rare vascular condition which most commonly causes localized stenosis or occlusions of the popliteal artery. It characterized by presence unilocular multilocular mucin-containing cysts in layer affected vessel. The these results narrowing arterial lumen, leading to intermittent claudication with relatively sudden onset and rapid progression. common otherwise healthy young middle-aged males without other signs atherosclerosis cardiovascular...
Radiopaque drug-eluting beads are an emerging treatment option for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The primary objective of this study was to evaluate overall disease and target tumor response non-resectable HCC after TACE a doxorubicin-loaded radiopaque microsphere. Data were abstracted from records unresectable who received LC Bead LUMITM microspheres at one five United States centers between February 2016 - November 2017. Response measured using modified criteria in solid...

Abstract Bulimia nervosa (BN) is one of the most serious eating disorders (EDs) associated with long-term significant impairment to both physical and mental quality life. Subthreshold BN emphasize that individuals reported some extent bulimic symptoms, even those who did not fully meet diagnostic criteria endure elevated levels impulsivity higher likelihood self-harm. Therefore, current study aimed identify potential neurobiological signatures high-risk symptoms. We used functional magnetic...
