Memory differences by sex, but not by previous diagnosis of major depressive disorder.

Memory difficulties are consistently reported in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Nonetheless, it has not been thoroughly investigated as to whether these deficits persist during remission from MDD. A group of 32 healthy young adults with no history of a mood disorder ( = 20.

Differential Resting State Connectivity Patterns and Impaired Semantically Cued List Learning Test Performance in Early Course Remitted Major Depressive Disorder.

Objectives: There is a well-known association between memory impairment and major depressive disorder (MDD). Additionally, recent studies are also showing resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsMRI) abnormalities in active and remitted MDD. However, no studies to date have examined both rs connectivity and memory performance in early course remitted MDD, nor the relationship between connectivity and semantically cued episodic memory.

Amygdala and dorsomedial hyperactivity to emotional faces in youth with remitted Major Depression.

We present neuroimaging markers of the remitted state of major depressive disorder (rMDD) during facial emotion perception in 84 individuals during fMRI. Participants comprised 47 individuals (aged 18-23) diagnosed with rMDD and 37 healthy controls (HCs). Participants classified emotional faces or animals (control condition) in the Facial Emotion Perception Test (FEPT) during fMRI.

Gender differences in orthostatic hypotension.

Orthostatic hypotension is a decrease in systolic blood pressure of more than 20 mm Hg or a decrease in diastolic blood pressure of at least 10 mm Hg, within 3 minutes of changing from a supine to an upright position. The typical clinical presentation of orthostatic hypotension includes dizziness, syncope, blurry vision and loss of balance. Symptoms may be more frequent in women, but the complicating roles played by comorbid factors and the estrogen mechanisms are not well understood.
