The Role of Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test in Predicting [18F]Florbetaben PET Results in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Mild Dementia

Heart rate variability and cognitive performance in adults with cardiovascular risk

“…Among the variables derived from the 24 hours HRV analysis, the ULF band power was found to be strongly associated with both global cognitive performances (assessed with the MoCA test) and specific cognitive domains, such as executive functions, language and memory. ULF power was also related to episodic memory performance as assessed by the FCSRT, a test specifically recommended by the International Working Group for the diagnosis of AD [22] and useful for identifying individuals with cognitive impairment and AD pathology [23] . Our results are in agreement with those obtained by Shah and colleagues [24] who found that VLF and ULF of the 24-hour HRV analysis were associated with verbal memory.…”

Preliminary Validation of the Triana Test: A New Story Recall Test Based on Emotional Material

“…Higher cued index value, more preserved cueing efficiency is. 29,30 The diagnosis of aMCI had been made according to the International Working Group on Mild Cognitive Impairment recommendations, 31 which were operationally put in practice as follows: (a) memory complaints corroborated by a reliable informant, (b) clinician had determined that the person was neither normal nor demented by low total score on MMSE but no significant functional decline for activities of daily living [score up to 39 on the "Interview for Deterioration in Daily Living Activities in Dementia" (IDDD)], 32 (c) objective memory impairment measured by a score equal or below the 10-percentile on the "Memory Associative Test of the district of Seine-Saint-Denis" (TMA-93), 28 (d) non-memory domains (language, executive function or visuospatial skills) intact. HCs were recruited among the caregivers and relatives of patients attending both units.…”
