背景情况:
- 诊断与艾滋病毒相关的神经认知障碍 (HAND) 需要将损伤与艾滋病毒联系起来. 抑郁症状可能会影响艾滋病毒 (PWH) 感染者的自我报告功能.
- 了解认知,抑郁和日常功能之间的相互作用对于管理HAND和改善PWH生活质量至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 检查客观的全球认知,抑郁症状严重程度和PWH中自我报告的日常功能之间的纵向关系.
- 确定抑郁症状的严重程度是否会影响认知表现和PWH中的功能下降之间的关联.
主要方法:
- 分析了894个PWH的纵向数据,使用多层次建模.
- 收集了日常生活工具活动 (IADL) 依赖和主观认知困难的自我报告措施,以及抑郁症状严重程度 (BDI-II).

296
Cognitive development continues throughout adulthood, undergoing significant shifts across early, middle, and late stages. Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

Long-term Depression
2.6K
Long-term depression, or LTD, is one of the ways by which synaptic plasticity—changes in the strength of chemical synapses—can occur in the brain. LTD is the process of synaptic weakening that occurs over time between pre and postsynaptic neuronal connections. The synaptic weakening of LTD works in opposition to synaptic strengthening by long-term potentiation (LTP) and together are the main mechanisms that underlie learning and memory.
