Abstract:
The specific aspects of cognition contributing to balance and gait have not been clarified in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Twenty PD participants and twenty age- and gender-matched healthy controls were assessed on cognition and clinical mobility tests. General cognition was assessed with the Mini Mental State Exam and Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Exam. Executive function was evaluated using the Trail Making Tests (TMT-A and TMT-B) and a computerized cognitive battery which included a series of choice reaction time (CRT) tests. Clinical gait and balance measures included the Tinetti, Timed

Abstract:

 Background: The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing worldwide and has become a significant public health problem. Diabetes can lead to many secondary complications affecting multiple organs in the body. There is an association between diabetes mellitus and cognitive impairment, rapid decline in cognitive function, and dementia.
 The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of diabetes on cognitive functions of male and female patients and to assess whether cognitive functions of diabetic patients differentially vary between male and female patients.&

In order to evaluate cognitive impairment in multiple sclerosis (MS) neuropsychological tests were administered to 25 patients with clinically definite disease.

These results are interpreted in the light of current hypotheses relating to subcortical contributions in cognition.

An estimated 30–70% of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) have some cognitive impairment. Cognitive function depends on a spectrum of faculties including information processing speed, sustained attention, recent memory and executive function. The broad definition of cognition has resulted in different assessments of function, and repeatable batteries of tests have been devised to gain an overall and repeatable view of cognition in MS. Many studies have attempted to find an association between cognitive function and MS pathology using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Conventional MRI has be

Abstract:
Most studies recognized motor-cognitive dual-task training as an effective treatment to enhance neurological disorders in patients with improved motor and cognitive performance. However, the practical treatment strategy of motor-cognitive dual-task training still need to be confirmed with the clinical evidence-based support. The purpose of this study aimed to propose the optimal strategy of dual-task training using moderate-intensity stationary cycling and multidomain cognitive training for patients with MCI, and compare the post-training performance between motor, cognitive and motor-cognitiv

Abstract:
In recent years, the incidence of age-related diseases has increased dramatically due to the increase in the average human lifespan. The most common age-related symptom is Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), which often represents the transition from healthy aging to dementia, a neurodegenerative disease that has hitherto been incurable. When people detect suspected cognitive decline, how should they respond in advance? Past studies have reported that short-term memory loss is the most predictive of dementia in neuropsychological tests, so strengthening memory training and encouraging consistent

Abstract:
The performance of learning process (standard system, e-learning or in a virtual environment) is associated with cognitive load and memory working activity. Working memory (or short-term memory) is the ability to hold multiple pieces of information in mind as you solve a problem. An example of short-term memory is a chess master who can explore several possible solutions mentally before choosing the one that will lead to checkmate. This ability to hold information temporarily to complete a task is specifically human. It causes frontal and pre-frontal lobe regions of the brain to become very ac

Abstract:
Neuropsychological functioning after mTBI is individualized and dynamic, with no currently known predictors and usually having a trajectory of gradual improvement. It is still a challenge to identify specific cognitive profiles associated with mTBI. One of the causes is the transient character of TBI symptoms as they are not appearing immediately after the injury. Another explanation resides in the individual and group variability of cognitive impairements following mTBI, which also affects the standardisation of the neuropsychological tests to use in mTBI assessment batteries (Iverson et al.,

Abstract:
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has become a powerful and effective tool to deal with violence in many at-risk areas in the world. However, its use for gender-based violence (GBV) and dating violence, although promising, has been limited and used as a response service for survivors, rather than for prevention. To understand to what extent such interventions can help provide tools and skills to young people in their impressionable years to produce behavioral changes that prevent GBV, we carried out such an intervention among high school students in the municipality of Ecatepec in Mexico.

The paper considers the role of philosophy and philosophical disciplines as the means of forming general cultural competences, in particular, in the development of critical thinking. The article emphasizes that the process of forming over-subject and soft skills, which, as a rule, include also critical thinking, gets much more complicated under the conditions of the reduction in the volume of philosophical courses. The paper grounds that one of the ways to “return” philosophy to educational programmes can be the implementation of training, using the e-learning environment, especially Moodle. I
