The effects of chronic administration of hydrocortisone on cognitive function in normal male volunteers.

TL;DR: It is indicated that chronic administration of hydrocortisone leads to deficits in certain tests of cognitive function sensitive to frontal lobe dysfunction and may contribute to the cognitive impairment reported in certain neuropsychiatric disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low-dose tryptophan depletion in recovered depressed patients induces changes in cognitive processing without depressive symptoms.

Journal ArticleDOI
