Objective: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) subtypes have been shown to differentially impact psychiatric symptom presentation, clinical features, and functional abilities. While there is extensive research regarding MDD subtypes and clinical characteristics, there has been limited information regarding the relationship between MDD subtypes and neurocognitive functioning. In particular, the neurocognitive impact of the subtype of treatment resistant depression (TRD), defined as MDD that is unresponsive to treatment, is unknown. The aim of this preliminary study was to address this gap by characterizing the neurocognitive profile of TRD. We characterized the performance of older adults with TRD on measures across multiple neurocognitive domains, and explored whether performance varied based on age and education. Participants and Methods: Data utilized were drawn from a broader NIMH-funded, randomized, controlled study conducted at the University of New Mexico that investigated the clinical and cognitive outcomes of varying pulse amplitudes during acute electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in adults with MDD. Participants in the study were age 50+ with a diagnosis of MDD, and further delineated by subtype as TRD. For this analysis, we utilized demographic and baseline neurocognitive data collected prior to start of treatment for those diagnosed with MDD, recurrent, severe (TRD). Neurocognitive measures included the Delis Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS) Verbal Fluency and Color-Word Interference Subtests, Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (HVLT-R), and the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale 4th Edition (WAIS-IV) Digit Spans. Demographic-adjusted scaled scores were computed, and descriptive statistics were used to characterize the demographic and neurocognitive features of the sample. Multiple Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) was used to investigate difference in performance across neurocognitive measures based on level of education, with age as a covariate. Results: The sample (n = 42) had a mean age of 65 (SD=8), education level between12 and 14 years, 66.6% were female and 93% were Caucasian. DKEFS Verbal Fluency Category Switching Total Switching Accuracy fell in the Average range (Mean SS=9.5, SD=3.1), and Color Word Inhibition Total Completion Time fell in the Average range (Mean SS=8.5, SD=3.3). HVLT-R Total Recall Correct fell in the Mildly Impaired range (Mean T=35.5, SD=9.9) and Delayed Recall Correct fell in the Mildly to Moderately Impaired range (Mean T=32.9, SD=11.0). WAIS-IV Digit Span fell in the Average range (Mean SS=9.5, SD=2.2). Results indicated that age did not adjust outcomes on the neurocognitive variables, Wilks's λ=0.63, F(6, 23)=2.13, p=0.08. We found no evidence for significant effect of level of education on neurocognitive functioning when controlling for the covariate of age, Wilks's λ=-0.16, F(36, 103.7)=1.47, p=0.07. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is one of two studies to examine neurocognitive functioning in patients with TRD. The analysis indicated generally intact performance in the neurocognitive domains of executive function (inclusive of verbal fluency, cognitive flexibility, and inhibition), auditory attention and working memory, and Impaired performance on indices of verbal learning and memory. Age did not impact performance on neurocognitive measures, and there was no significant effect for level of education. Further research is warranted to confirm these findings and further explicate the neurocognitive profile of TRD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A family history of dementia is associated with an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) late in life (LOAD). This study marked the first attempt to assess the familial contribution to differences in cognitive performance in a large family-based group in the Chinese community. We enrolled 168 participants without dementia from a single pedigree with 9 probable AD patients diagnosed after age 65. These participants were evaluated with a comprehensive neuropsychological battery, the Chinese version of the Mini Mental State Examination, and the Alzheimer Disease Assessment Scale–Cognitive Subscale. Analyses found that extended family members of the LOAD pedigree showed similar performance on measures of global cognitive function and semantic memory compared to controls, but lower scores on episodic memory, attention, and executive function measures. These results indicate that the genetic influences on certain sub-cognitive domains are more detectable despite normal global cognitive function, and that family members with the LOAD pedigree are at risk for developing LOAD by virtue of their family history with an additive risk due to increased age. The findings in this study support the importance of documenting if there is a positive family history of AD in clinical evaluations. (JINS, 2013, 19, 1–11) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Prospective memory (PM) is the ability to remember to perform a future action at a specified later time, which is investigated through the use of event-based and time-based tasks. Prior investigations have found that PM is impaired following traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, there is limited information regarding the cognitive functions that mediate TBI and PM performance. Thus, this study investigated time-based PM in TBI patients, and the relationship among time-based PM, time perception, and executive functions. To accomplish this objective, 18 severe TBI patients and 18 healthy matched controls performed a time-based PM task, a time reproduction task, and two executive functions (Stroop and n-back) tasks. While both groups increased their monitoring frequency close to the target time, TBI patients monitored more and were less accurate than healthy controls at the target time confirming the time-based PM dysfunction in these patients. Importantly, executive functions, particularly inhibition and updating abilities, were strongly related to time-based PM performance; both time perception and executive functions are involved in time-based prospective memory in controls, whereas, only executive functions appear to be involved in TBI time-based prospective memory performance.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common and debilitating illness that impacts neurocognitive function. However, the majority of previous studies varied in methodologic design and rigor, thus minimizing definitive conclusions. The present study was designed to determine the impact of CKD on neurocognitive function through specific examination of CKD factors and therapeutic interventions. We evaluated 120 CKD outpatients and 41 healthy donors (controls) in terms of neurocognitive function, anxiety, and depressive symptomatology, and somnolence. Information regarding medical and treatment history was recorded. Twenty-three percent of CKD patients presented with cognitive impairment. Stage 5 patients had lower scores (p < .05) compared with controls and patients in stage 3 and 4 on measures of global cognitive function. No differences in global cognitive function were found between stage 3 and 4 patients and controls. A greater proportion of patients undergoing hemodialysis relative to those treated with peritoneal dialysis showed impairment on measures of memory functions. Results suggest that stage 5 CKD patients may present with impaired cognitive functions. Anemia appeared to be a key variable that may explain the memory impairment in this sample. Future longitudinal investigations of CKD are warranted to determine the trajectory of cognitive impairment. (JINS, 2010, 17, 000–000) [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

- Abstract
Introduction: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is thought to negatively impact cognitive function; however, the relationship has not been well explored.Objective: This study examined the association between depression severity and global cognitive function and memory in subjects with severe, treatment-resistant MDD.Methods: We enrolled 66 subjects with Structured Clinical Interview for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition diagnosed unipolar MDD in a multicenter trial to assess the efficacy and neurocognitive effects of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). We measured depression severity with the 24 item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HRSD(24)). Neuropsychologic measures included the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT), and the Complex Figure Test (CFT). Correlational and regression analyses were conducted to explore associations between depression severity and cognitive function.Results: The mean age of the subjects was 53.6 years (SD=15.8), 65% were female, and mean HRSD(24) was 33.9 (SD=6.7). Mean demographic-corrected T-scores for each neurocognitive measure were in the average to borderline range, and HRSD(24) values were unrelated to performance on the MMSE, RAVLT immediate and delayed recall, and CFT immediate and delayed recall.Conclusion: In this sample of severely depressed subjects referred for ECT, depression severity was unrelated to global cognitive function or memory. Future research should examine the interactions between other depressive characteristics and neurocognitive function. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Background: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is an effective treatment for major depression. Optimising efficacy and minimising cognitive impairment are goals of ongoing technical refinements.Aims: To compare the efficacy and cognitive effects of a novel electrode placement, bifrontal, with two standard electrode placements, bitemporal and right unilateral in ECT.Method: This multicentre randomised, double-blind, controlled trial (NCT00069407) was carried out from 2001 to 2006. A total of 230 individuals with major depression, bipolar and unipolar, were randomly assigned to one of three electrode placements during a course of ECT: bifrontal at one and a half times seizure threshold, bitemporal at one and a half times seizure threshold and right unilateral at six times seizure threshold.Results: All three electrode placements resulted in both clinically and statistically significant antidepressant outcomes. Remission rates were 55% (95% CI 43-66%) with right unilateral, 61% with bifrontal (95% CI 50-71%) and 64% (95% CI 53-75%) with bitemporal. Bitemporal resulted in a more rapid decline in symptom ratings over the early course of treatment. Cognitive data revealed few differences between the electrode placements on a variety of neuropsychological instruments.Conclusions: Each electrode placement is a very effective antidepressant treatment when given with appropriate electrical dosing. Bitemporal leads to more rapid symptom reduction and should be considered the preferred placement for urgent clinical situations. The cognitive profile of bifrontal is not substantially different from that of bitemporal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

- Abstract
The present study investigated memory for intention in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) who were newly diagnosed and not yet treated to avoid the effect of therapy as a potential confounding variable. A comprehensive neuropsychological battery and an event-based prospective memory task were administered to 41 subjects with de novo PD and 40 control subjects. Separate scores were computed for correct execution of intended action (prospective component) and recall of intention (retrospective component). PD patients performed marginally worse (p = .053) than controls on the prospective component of the task. On the other hand, the performance of the two groups was comparable for the retrospective component. Neuropsychological findings revealed lower performance of the PD group in episodic memory and in some measures of executive functions. These results suggested a subtle prospective memory dysfunction present at the initial stage of PD, which may be related to disruption of fronto-striatal circuitry.
