Prospective and retrospective memory in mild Alzheimer's disease

Abstract: -Objective: To study prospective and retrospective memory in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD). Method: Twenty mild AD and 20 matched normal control subjects were included. Diagnosis of AD was based on DSM-IV and NINCDS-ADRDA criteria, using CDR 1 and MMSE scores from 16 to 24 for mild AD. All subjects underwent retrospective (Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test, RAVLT) and prospective memory tests (the appointment and belonging subtests of the Rivermead Behavioral Memory Test, RBMT; and two tests made… Show more

“…In addition, while impairments of retrospective episodic memory are considered to be a characteristic feature of AD [1], a number of studies suggest that PM failures occur at least as frequently in this population and are as severe [25]. Given that PM difficulties are evident in preclinical AD and in very mild AD [28], substantial PM decline may be an early indicator of dementia [29].…”

“…Moreover, other studies 5,6,[23][24][25] have shown that ProM is primarily and early affected in AD, independently of the concurrent deficit of RetM. There are indications that ProM and RetM depend on different cognitive processes and different brain regions.…”

“…This retrospective component is highly dependent on the medial temporal lobe structures, it is what makes ProM (to memorize or learn a list of things to do in the future) to be similar to RetM (to remember a list of events from the past), and constitutes one of the reasons why ProM and RetM are usually impaired in the early stages of the AD 5,6 . The prospective component is what characterizes ProM as unique, different from learning, in that it is the memory of an intention, essential for goal-directed behaviors.…”

“…Alguns itens mostraram-se particularmente úteis na distinção entre sujeitos normais e sujeitos demenciados, por exemplo, os itens A6, A7 e a memória de reconhecimento. Tais evidências sugerem que as medidas que dependem da sustentação da informação ao longo do tempo são particularmente importantes na distinção entre sujeitos normais e com doença de Alzheimer, sendo compatíveis com os resultados de outros estudos 1,4,18 . Além disso, confirmou ser um instrumento sensível ao déficit de memória episódica 2,5,9 .…”

“…O Teste de Aprendizagem Auditivo-Verbal de Rey (RAVLT) tem se mostrado útil na avaliação da memória de idosos [1][2][3][4] , contribuindo particularmente para o diagnóstico diferencial entre o envelhecimento normal e quadros demenciais como a demência do tipo Alzheimer [5][6][7] . O teste é utilizado para avaliação da memória e aprendizagem 8 , sendo considerado um instrumento sensível ao déficit de memória episódica 2,5,9 .…”
