Neurochemical correlates of dementia severity in Alzheimer's disease: relative importance of the cholinergic deficits.

TL;DR: It is suggested that of all the neurochemical species quantified, the cholinergic indices may be unique in their association with dementia severity, and none of the amines, their metabolites, or the neuropeptides quantified related significantly to dementia severity in the AD cohort.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two New Rating Scales for Opiate Withdrawal

TL;DR: In this paper, two rating scales for measuring the signs and symptoms of opiate withdrawal are presented: Subjective Opiate Withdrawal Scale (SOWS) contains 16 symptoms whose intensity the patient rates on a scale of 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely).

Two new rating scales for opiate withdrawal

TL;DR: Good interrater reliability for the OOWS and good intrasubject reliability over time for both scales are demonstrated to be valid and reliable indicators of the severity of the opiate withdrawal syndrome over a wide range of common signs and symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacological alleviation of cholinergic lesion induced memory deficits in rats

TL;DR: The hypothesis that central cholinergic systems are involved in the retention of learned responses in adult rats is supported, and the postacquisition administration of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, physostigmine, is suggested to be reversed.
