(MDPI, 2022)During the COVID-19 pandemic, long-term care (LTC) centers have adopted a series of measures that have affected the physical and cognitive health of patients. The routines of the patients, as well as the interventions ... -
Brain dinamics associated with face-naming and the tip-of-the-tongue state
(Colegio Oficial de Psicólogos del Principado, 2011)Active brain areas and their temporal sequence of activation during the successful retrieval and naming of famous faces (KNOW) and during the tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) state were studied by means of low resolution ... -
Broad cognitive complaints but subtle objective working memory impairment in fibromyalgia patients
(PEERJ INC, 2018)Background Cognitive dysfunction in fibromyalgia (FM) encompasses objective cognitive difficulties, as measured in neuropsychological tests, and self-reported cognitive complaints. Although it has been suggested that FM ... -
Care tasks and impact of caring in primary family caregivers: a cross-sectional study from a nursing perspective
(Elsevier, 2021)Family caregivers of persons with dementia often experience a negative impact on their health. More studies based on nursing theories are needed to improve the provision of care -
A case study on polypharmacy and depression in a 75-year-old woman with visual deficits and charles bonnet syndrome
(MDPI, 2022)Depression is one of the most prevalent pathologies in older adults. Its diagnosis and treatment are complex due to different factors that intervene in its development and progression, including intercurrent organic ... -
Changes in brain activity related to episodic memory retrieval in adults with single domain amnestic mild cognitive impairment
(Elsevier, 2021)The present fMRI study aimed to characterize the performance and the brain activity changes related to episodic memory retrieval in adults with single domain aMCI (sdaMCI), relative to cognitively unimpaired adults. ... -
Ciencias cognitivas y educación : una propuesta de diálogo
(Universidad Politécnica Salesiana, 2021)En este trabajo se realiza una propuesta de comunicación transdisciplinar entre las ciencias cognitivas y la educación, tal y como se perfilan en el siglo XXI. En un primer lugar se contextualizan estos procesos de ... -
Cognitive control activity is modulated by the magnitude of interference and pre-activation of monitoring mechanisms
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-12-20)The Simon task is used to study interference from irrelevant spatial information. Interference is manifested by longer reaction times when the required response –based on non-spatial features- is spatially incompatible ... -
Cognitive frailty: an update
(Frontiers Media, 2021)This review article provides an update of the empirical research on cognitive fragility conducted in the last four years. The studies retrieved were classified in four different categories. The first category includes ... -
Combining a cognitive concurrent task with a motor or motor-cognitive task : which is better to differentiate levels of affectation in Parkinson’s disease?
(Hindawi, 2020)Cognitive decline usually coexists with motor impairment in PD. Multitask settings provide appropriate measures to evaluate the complex interaction between motor and cognitive impairments. The main objective was to analyze ... -
Dementia and challenging behaviors in gerontological centers : a case report
(MDPI, 2019)Among the main challenges in geriatric and gerontological centers, we consider, central, the individualized attention to those elderly persons with challenging behaviors, to the extent that it is possible to design preventive ... -
Design of optimal nonlinear network controllers for Alzheimer's disease
(PLOS, 2018-05-24)Brain stimulation can modulate the activity of neural circuits impaired by Alzheimer's disease (AD), having promising clinical benefit. However, all individuals with the same condition currently receive identical brain ... -
Design process and preliminary psychometric study of a video game to detect cognitive impairment in senior adults
(PEERJ INC, 2017)Introduction Assessment of episodic memory has been traditionally used to evaluate potential cognitive impairments in senior adults. Typically, episodic memory evaluation is based on personal interviews and pen-and-paper ... -
DNA methylation changes in fibromyalgia suggest the role of the immune-inflammatory response and central sensitization
(MDPI, 2021)Fibromyalgia (FM) has been explained as a result of gene-environment interactions. The present study aims to verify DNA methylation differences in eleven candidate genome regions previously associated to FM, evaluating ... -
