“…Thus, to perform clock drawing successfully it demands—apart of visual memory and reconstruction, and visuospatial abilities—executive functions (Shulman et al, 1986; Croisile, 1999; Forbes et al, 2004; Yan et al, 2008; Forbes-Mckay et al, 2014). Prolonged in-air trajectories might reflect impaired decision making due to frontal and temporoparietal disturbances that are often exhibited in the early course of AD and even in patients with aMCI (Samton et al, 2005; Zheng et al, 2012; Blanco Martín et al, 2016) and these interfere with cCDT demands like on-demand motor planning, execution (praxis) and executive function (Forbes et al, 2004; Yan et al, 2008; Forbes-Mckay et al, 2014). According to this we found significant impairment in TMT-B performance in our eDAT individuals compared to the other groups that might be most likely ascribed to increased deterioration in cognitive flexibility and executive functions (Crowe, 1998; Chen et al, 2009).…”
