Background/aim: The negative effects of surgery and anesthesia on cognitive functions and their relationships with many factors are well known. In the present study we aimed to investigate the effect of the total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) method on the postoperative cognitive functions between young and elderly patients scheduled to undergo lumbar disk surgery.
Materials And Methods: The TIVA method was applied to 40 patients less than 65 years old (young, Group Y) and ≥65 years old (old, Group O), whose Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) results and serum S-100 beta protein levels were compared preoperatively and postoperatively at the 24th hour.
Results: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction was not observed in any of the groups in the early stage. MMSE results and mean S-100 beta protein levels determined before and after the operation did not have statistically significant differences between the groups over time.
Conclusion: In the present study, the TIVA method did not affect postoperative early cognitive functions in either old or young patients who underwent lumbar disk surgery.

The benefit of extrinsic motivation on effortful cognitive control is influenced by need for cognition.

Extrinsic motivation can foster effortful cognitive control. Moreover, the selective coupling of extrinsic motivation on low- versus high-control demands tasks would exert an additional impact. However, to what extent their influences are further modulated by the level of Need for Cognition (NFC) remains unclear.

While impaired response inhibition has been reported in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), findings in disruptive behavior disorders (DBDs) have been inconsistent, probably due to unaccounted effects of co-occurring ADHD in DBD. This study investigated the associations of behavioral and neural correlates of response inhibition with DBD and ADHD symptom severity, covarying for each other in a dimensional approach. Functional magnetic resonance imaging data were available for 35 children and adolescents with DBDs (8-18 years old, 19 males), and 31 age-matched unaffected controls (18 males) while performing a performance-adjusted stop-signal task.

Down syndrome (DS) is strongly associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) due to APP overexpression, exhibiting Amyloid-β (Aβ) and Tau pathology similar to early-onset (EOAD) and late-onset AD (LOAD). We evaluated the Aβ plaque proteome of DS, EOAD, and LOAD using unbiased localized proteomics on post-mortem paraffin-embedded tissues from four cohorts (n = 20/group): DS (59.8 ± 4.

We investigated the naturalistic processing of interpersonal distance in real time and space using a powerful implicit neurophysiological measure of attentional engagement. In a sample of 37 young adults recruited at a UK university, we found greater EEG alpha band suppression when a person occupies or moves into near personal space than for a person occupying or moving into public space.

The Childhood Executive Functioning Inventory (CHEXI) is a rating scale that evaluates everyday behaviors associated with executive functions in children. This study aimed to investigate the factor structure and the measurement invariance across parents and teachers of the CHEXI in a sample of 279 Portuguese typically developing children (6 to 12 years old, = 160 girls and = 119 boys). Most studies only analyzed the original two-factor model, and the few that investigated the four-factor model found a nearly identical fit between both factor structures.
