Impact of the COVID-19 lockdown on a long-term care facility: the role of social contact
(MDPI, 2021)Background: Long-term care facilities (LTCFs) have been harmed by the coronavirus, and older adults have remained isolated for a long time with many restrictions. The aim of this study was to measure the decline in ... -
Impaired glucose metabolism reduces the neuroprotective action of adipocytokines in cognitively normal older adults with insulin resistance
(Impact Journals, 2021)Evidence suggests that aging-related dysfunctions of adipose tissue and metabolic disturbances increase the risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome (MtbS), eventually leading to cognitive impairment and dementia. However, ... -
Increased Amplitude of the P3a ERP Component as a Neurocognitive Marker for Differentiating Amnestic Subtypes of Mild Cognitive Impairment
(Frontiers Media, 2018)The event-related potential (ERP) technique has been shown to be useful for evaluating changes in brain electrical activity associated with different cognitive processes, particularly in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Longitudinal ... -
Increased neural noise and impaired brain synchronization in fibromyalgia patients during cognitive interference
(Springer Nature, 2017)Fibromyalgia (FM) and other chronic pain syndromes are associated with cognitive dysfunction and attentional deficits, but the neural basis of such alterations is poorly understood. Dyscognition may be related to high ... -
Inhibition deficit in the spatial tendency of the response in multiple-domain amnestic mild cognitive impairment. An event-related potential study
(Frontiers Media, 2015)Longitudinal studies have shown that a high percentage of people with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) develop Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Prodromal AD is known to involve deficits in executive control processes. In ... -
Involuntary capture and voluntary reorienting of attention decline in middle-aged and old participants
(Frontiers Media, 2016-03-30)The main aim of this study was to examine the effects of aging on event-related brain potentials (ERPs) associated with the automatic detection of unattended infrequent deviant and novel auditory stimuli (Mismatch ... -
Las relaciones entre las familias y la escuela en la etapa adolescente: implicaciones para el Departamento de Orientación
(Universidad de Murcia, 2018)El desarrollo del alumnado adolescente tiene lugar en una sociedad en constante cambio y se ve influenciado por factores económicos, sociales y culturales que es necesario tener en cuenta desde la institución escolar para ... -
Longitudinal Assessment of Verbal Learning and Memory in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment: Practice Effects and Meaningful Changes
(Frontiers Media, 2017)Objectives: To identify learning effects and meaningful changes in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) at a follow-up assessment. Method: The Spanish version of the California Verbal Learning Test (CVLT) was ... -
Longitudinal Patterns of the Tip-of-the-Tongue Phenomenon in People With Subjective Cognitive Complaints and Mild Cognitive Impairment
(Frontiers, 2020)Background: The Tip-of-the-Tongue (ToTs) state is considered a universal phenomenon and is a frequent cognitive complaint in old age. Previous cross-sectional studies have found that ToT measures successfully discriminate ... -
Mismatch negativity (MMN) amplitude as a biomarker of sensory memory deficit in amnestic mild cognitive impairment
(Frontiers, 2013-11-20)It has been suggested that changes in some event-related potential (ERP) parameters associated with controlled processing of stimuli could be used as biomarkers of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). However, data ... -
Naming faces: A multidisciplinary and integrated review
(Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos del Principado de Asturias, 2009)Naming faces is a common area of study from a wide range of perspectives in social sciences, including cognitive psychology and several branches of cognitive neuroscience. This paper provides a comprehensive review of ... -
Neural correlates of cognitive dysfunction in fibromyalgia patients: Reduced brain electrical activity during the execution of a cognitive control task
(Elsevier, 2019)Objectives Fibromyalgia (FM) is a generalized chronic pain syndrome of unknown aetiology. Although FM patients frequently complain of cognitive dysfunction, this is one of the least studied symptoms. Research on brain ... -
Normative scores for the Timed Up & Go in a Spanish sample of community-dweller adults with preserved functionality
(Elsevier, 2021)Our aim was to calculate the ‘Timed Up & Go’ (TUG) normative scores in a Spanish sample composed of functional older adults. The TUG test provides a measure of global ambulation skills and its total score has been ... -
Pain Expressions and Inhibitory Control in Patients With Fibromyalgia: Behavioral and Neural Correlates
(Frontiers Media, 2019)Fibromyalgia (FM) is a generalized chronic pain condition associated with a variety of symptoms, including altered cognitive and emotional processing. It has been proposed that FM patients show a preferential allocation ... -
Patients with fibromyalgia show increased beta connectivity across distant networks and microstates alterations in resting-state electroencephalogram
(Elsevier, 2020)Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain of unknown etiology associated with alterations in the central nervous system. Although previous studies demonstrated altered patterns of brain ... -
Prevalence of Cognitive Frailty, Do Psychosocial-Related Factors Matter?
(MDPI, 2020)Cognitive frailty (CF) is a topic of growing interest with implications for the study of preventive interventions in aging. Nevertheless, little research has been done to assess the influence of psychosocial variables on ... -
