Abstract:
Two studies investigated the maintenance of a memory strategy following training. Maintenance was compared in two groups of preschoolers. The first group was taught the strategy in a situation where it produced large improvements in performance from pretrials to training. These children were more likely to maintain it than those taught the strategy in a situation in which improvements were small. It was concluded that the size of the improvement in memory was a determinant of strategy maintenance, although the second study showed that the size of the improvement did not influence transfer of t

Abstract:
Background: Dietary quality and the consumption of antioxidant-rich foods have been shown to protect against memory decline. Therefore, this double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study aimed to investigate the effects of a nutritional supplement on changes in cognitive performance. Methods: In adults aged 40 to 70 years with subjective memory complaints, participants were randomly allocated to take a supplement containing vitamin E, astaxanthin, and grape juice extract daily for 12 weeks or a matching placebo. The primary outcomes comprised changes in cognitive tasks assessing episodic

Abstract:
Background/Objectives: Levo-Stepholidine (l-SPD), a compound extracted from Chinese herbs, has the potential to treat psychotic disorders where cognitive deficits are a critical challenge. L-SPD displays a D1R agonism/D2R antagonism pharmacological profile, and its effect on cognitive function is still vague and lacks comprehensive study. Here, we investigated the impact of l-SPD on two core indexes of executive function, working memory and response inhibition, and learning and memory. Methods: Using a delayed alternation T-maze task (DAT), we investigated the impact of l-SPD on working memory

Abstract:
Autobiographical memory (ABM) is memory for past personal experiences and is foundational to the development of many cognitive processes. As such, ABM and social learning are developmentally intertwined and functionally dependent, and impairments in each are well-documented in autism. Evidence suggests that elaborative reminiscing (ER) causally and positively impacts neurotypical children’s ABM and social learning. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a new caregiver-mediated ABM intervention that adapts the principles of ER in ways that align with best practices for

Background/Objectives: Ketamine/esketamine has a rapid/robust antidepressant effect on treatment-resistant depression (TRD). However, its long-term cognitive effects remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the potential cognitive effects of an esketamine spray on a series of TRD patients. Methods: We evaluated the cognitive performance of eight TRD patients subjected to an esketamine nasal spray as an adjunct treatment for six months. Cognitive assessments were performed before treatment initiation (T0) and at three (T3) and six (T6) months by an experienced neuropsychologist using a co

AbstractAlthough the roles of verbal short-term and working memory on spoken sentence comprehension skills in persons with aphasia have been debated for many years, the development of treatments to mitigate verbal short-term and working memory deficits as a way of improving spoken sentence comprehension is a new avenue in treatment research. In this article, we review and critically appraise this emerging evidence base. We also present new data from five persons with aphasia of a replication of a previously reported treatment that had resulted in some improvement of spoken sentence comprehensi

Abstract Background. Impaired working memory appears to play a key role in some of the neurocognitive late effects of pediatric brain tumor treatments, including declines in intellectual and executive functioning. Recent studies of pediatric cancer survivors suggest Cogmed® Working Memory Training is effective at improving working memory, although pediatric brain tumor survivors may demonstrate a less robust response than children with other cancers. The current study sought to determine if an extended course of Cogmed (35 sessions) was both feasible and efficacious for brain tumor survivors a

We enhanced the device uniformity for reliable memory performances by increasing the device surface roughness by exposing the HfO2 thin film surface to argon (Ar) plasma. The results showed significant improvements in electrical and synaptic properties, including memory window, linearity, pattern recognition accuracy, and synaptic weight modulations. Furthermore, we proposed a non-identical pulse waveform for further improvement in linearity accuracy. From the simulation results, the Ar plasma processing device using the designed waveform as the input signals significantly improved the off-chi

Abstract:
Every modern operating system provides some form of virtual memory to its applications. Usually, a hardware memory management unit (MMU) exists to efficiently support this. Although most operating systems allow user programs to indirectly control the MMU, few programs or programming languages actually make use of this facility. This article explores how the MMU can be used to enhance memory handling for resizable arrays. A reference implementation in C++ demonstrates its usability and superiority compared to the standard C++ vector class, and how to combine the scheme with an object-oriented e

Abstract:
Memory complaints are frequently reported by patients with epilepsy and are associated with seizure occurrence. Yet, the direct effects of seizures on memory retention are difficult to assess given their unpredictability. Furthermore, previous investigations have predominantly assessed declarative memory. This study evaluated within-subject effects of seizure occurrence on retention and consolidation of a procedural motor sequence learning task in patients with epilepsy undergoing continuous monitoring for five consecutive days.
