Negative and Cognitive Symptoms of Schizophrenia01:30

Negative and Cognitive Symptoms of Schizophrenia

Negative symptoms of schizophrenia indicate a reduction or absence of typical behaviors and emotional responses found in healthy individuals, while positive symptoms reflect an excess or distortion of normal functioning.
Negative Symptoms
Negative symptoms of schizophrenia manifest as deficits in normal emotional and behavioral functioning, profoundly impacting daily life. Individuals with schizophrenia often display a flat affect, characterized by a near-total absence of emotional expression,...
Language and Cognition01:27

Language and Cognition

Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.
Beck's Cognitive Therapy01:25

Beck's Cognitive Therapy

Cognitive therapy is a psychological approach designed to address distortions in thinking, which can lead to negative emotions and unrealistic beliefs. These cognitive distortions often influence how individuals interpret and respond to situations, exacerbating emotional distress. Below are some prevalent cognitive distortions, their characteristics, and examples of how they manifest in thought processes.

Chronic Bowel Disorders: Introduction01:17

Chronic Bowel Disorders: Introduction

Chronic bowel diseases are a group of long-term conditions affecting the digestive tract, characterized by inflammation and damage to the gut lining. These conditions primarily include irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder affecting the gastrointestinal tract. The distinctive feature is recurrent abdominal pain associated with altered bowel movements, manifesting as constipation, diarrhea, or fluctuating between both. The...
Alzheimer's Disease: Overview01:26

Alzheimer's Disease: Overview

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a continually advancing neurodegenerative disorder, distinguished by escalating memory loss, cognitive dysfunction, and dementia. The disease unfolds in three stages: preclinical, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia. Its onset is insidious, and the progression gradual, with the cause not well explained by other disorders.
The clinical diagnosis of AD hinges on the presence of memory and other cognitive impairments. Biomarkers, such as changes in Aβ and tau...
Alzheimer Disease l: Introduction01:29

Alzheimer Disease l: Introduction

Alzheimer disease is a chronic, progressive, and irreversible neurodegenerative disorder and the most common cause of dementia in older adults. It leads to gradual neuronal loss, causing cognitive decline, behavioral changes, and loss of functional independence.Risk Factors and EtiologyThe disease is multifactorial. Age is the strongest risk factor, with prevalence doubling every 5 years after age 65. Genetic factors include mutations in genes such as APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2, which are associated...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Immunology
  • Neurology

Background:

  • Behçet's disease (BD) impact on higher cognitive functions remains unclear.
  • Understanding cognitive deficits in BD is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Characterize neuropsychological profiles in Behçet's disease patients with (Neuro-BD) and without (BD) neurological involvement.
  • Identify clinical, psychopathological, and genetic factors associated with cognitive performance.
  • Explore the link between cognitive function and neuroimaging findings in BD.

Main Methods:

  • Neuropsychological testing battery administered to 15 Neuro-BD and 35 BD patients.
  • Assessment of anxiety and depression levels.
  • HLA-B*51 genotyping and MRI scans in a subset of BD patients.

Main Results:

  • 53% of Neuro-BD and 40% of BD patients showed cognitive impairment (e.g., digit span-forward).
  • Parenchymal involvement correlated with poorer cognition in Neuro-BD.
  • White matter changes, headaches, and anxiety/depression linked to cognitive deficits in BD.
  • Prednisone intake positively impacted cognitive performance.

Conclusions:

  • Behçet's disease can impair cognitive abilities even without overt neurological symptoms.
  • Cognitive dysfunction in BD may indicate insidious neurological involvement.
  • Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms of cognitive impairment in BD.
