Subcortical Dementia

Patterns of cognitive impairment in relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis and their relationship to neuropathology on magnetic resonance images.

“…Importantly, as many or more MS patients were impaired on verbal measures such as vocabulary as on measures of abstract reasoning, and as many patients were impaired on confrontational naming as on measures of information processing. These findings are not consistent with Cummings and Benson's (1984) description of subcortical dementia. Unfortunately, Rao et al (1991) did not report the frequency with which various combinations of areas of cognitive impairment occurred.…”

Neuropsychological effects of depression and age in an elderly sample: A confirmatory study.

“…Their memory impairments also are less prominent. Although we and others have written previously about depression being associated with a “subcortical pattern” of cognitive deficits (Caine, 1981; Cummings & Benson, 1984; King & Caine, 1990), our current results cannot be explained by such a model. Rather, they point to more extensive cortical dysfunction.…”
