TLDR
The BPS-O task provides a sensitive measure for observing changes in memory performance across the lifespan and may be useful for the early detection of memory impairments that may provide an early signal of later development to mild cognitive impairment.

The Contribution of Working Memory Areas to Verbal Learning and Recall in Primary Progressive Aphasia

TL;DR: The authors found that the early stages of verbal learning involve the areas with subserving phonological processing (left superior temporal gyrus), as well as semantic WM memory (left angular gyrus, AG_L).
Journal ArticleDOI

The enhancing effect of 200 mg caffeine on mnemonic discrimination is at best small.

TL;DR: Doubts are raised about a caffeine-mediated enhancement of mnemonic discrimination on two counts: if the effect exists, it is substantially smaller than originally reported and may reflect an offset of performance-impairing withdrawal symptoms rather than genuinely enhanced consolidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiorespiratory Fitness May Protect Memory for Poorer Sleepers

TL;DR: Cardiorespiratory fitness may act as a protective buffer for memory in OA with poor sleep quality, suggesting that the protective effects of cardiorepiratory fitness on sleep-related memory impairments may be age specific.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is There a Role for Pattern Separation during Sleep

TL;DR: Sleep plays an important role in supporting long-term memory formation and beyond preserving specific details from different events, sleep can facilitate the abstraction of generalities across events.

Mild Cognitive Impairment: Clinical Characterization and Outcome

TL;DR: Patients who meet the criteria for MCI can be differentiated from healthy control subjects and those with very mild AD, and appear to constitute a clinical entity that can be characterized for treatment interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new clinical scale for the staging of dementia.

TL;DR: The Clinical Dementia Rating (CRD) was developed for a prospective study of mild senile dementia—Alzheimer type (SDAT), and was found to distinguish unambiguously among older subjects with a wide range of cognitive function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Why there are complementary learning systems in the hippocampus and neocortex: insights from the successes and failures of connectionist models of learning and memory.

TL;DR: The account presented here suggests that memories are first stored via synaptic changes in the hippocampal system, that these changes support reinstatement of recent memories in the neocortex, that neocortical synapses change a little on each reinstatement, and that remote memory is based on accumulated neocorticals changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Population-based norms for the mini-mental state examination by age and educational level

TL;DR: Results presented should prove to be useful to clinicians who wish to compare an individual patient's MMSE scores with a population reference group and to researchers making plans for new studies in which cognitive status is a variable of interest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trail Making Test A and B: Normative data stratified by age and education

TL;DR: The current norms represent a more comprehensive set of norms than previously available and will increase the ability of neuropsychologists to determine more precisely the degree to which scores on the TMT reflect impaired performance for varying ages and education.
