Abstract

The impact of Moyamoya Disease (MMD) on cognition inadult Caucasian patients has not yet been thoroughly investigated. The current study is the first to present detailed neuropsychological data on a series of Greek patients with MMD. A group of eight patients was assessed with an extensive neuropsychological battery, including measures of episodic memory, working memory, executive functions, language, and social cognition. The results indicated that MMD may be characterized by a trichotomous neurocognitive profile, characterized by prominent impairment in working memory, executive functions, and social cognition. Overall, we stress the need for a thorough cognitive evaluation of MMD patients and further highlight the potential importance of social cognition in this particular disease. Possible associations between the three impaired cognitive domains in our group are also discussed.

希腊高加索莫亚莫亚病患者的神经认知特征：病例系列。

关于莫亚莫亚氏病（MMD）对高加索患者认知能力的影响，目前尚未进行深入研究。本研究首次提供了一系列希腊 MMD 患者的详细神经心理学数据。研究人员对一组八名患者进行了广泛的神经心理学评估，包括对外显记忆、工作记忆、执行功能、语言和社会认知的测量。结果表明，多发性硬化症可能具有三重神经认知特征，即工作记忆、执行功能和社会认知能力明显受损。总之，我们强调了对多发性硬化症患者进行全面认知评估的必要性，并进一步强调了社会认知在这种特殊疾病中的潜在重要性。此外，我们还讨论了本组患者三个认知领域受损之间可能存在的关联。

期刊介绍： Being an international journal, China Ocean Engineering (COE) takes its prime function as the integration of new research concepts, equipment, technology, materials and structures and other scientific advances within the field of estuarial, coastal, offshore, and deepwater engineering with particular reference to developments. The Journal is concerned with all engineering aspects involved in the exploration and utilization of ocean resources. Topics regularly covered include research, design and construction of structures (including wharfs, dikes, breakwaters, platforms, mooring systems, etc.), instrumentation/testing (physical model and numerical model), wave dynamics, sedimentation, structural/stress analysis, soil mechanics, and material research.
