Relationship Between Cognitive Disorder and First-Line Targeted Therapy for Oncogene Driver-Positive Patients With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Prospective Cohort Study.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have found and confirmed a correlation between cognitive disorder and chemotherapy. As genetic testing becomes more routine in clinical practice, targeted therapies are increasingly gaining prominence. The relationship between targeted treatment and cognitive function is not yet clear. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between cognitive disorder and targeted treatment by evaluating the changes in cognitive function before and after targeted therapy. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore whether targeted therapy affects cognitive function in patients with advanced lung cancer and to explore the association between cognitive function, the inflammatory biomarker C-reactive protein, and psychological stress. METHODS: From the screened cohort of 150 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with gene mutations, 87 (58%) were rigorously selected for the study. The evaluation instruments used were the Mini-Mental State Examination scale, the Distress Thermometer, and the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 for assessing quality of life. RESULTS: A significantly lower progression-free survival (PFS) was observed in the group of patients surviving advanced NSCLC with cognitive disorder under targeted therapy in contrast to survivors in the group with no cognitive disorder (hazard ratio=0.347, 95% CI 0.209-0.578; P<.001). Furthermore, the objective response rate and disease control rate for the group with cognitive disorder were noted to be 37.8% and 86.7%, respectively, contrastingly lower than those in the group with no cognitive disorder, recorded at 78.6% and 97.6%, respectively. Significant variances were also noted in the Mini-Mental State Examination scores between patients with and without cognitive disorder both before and after targeted therapy (P<.001 in both cases), with a decreasing trend observed in both groups after targeted therapy. Noteworthy differences were found in quality of life scores both before and after targeted therapy (P<.001 in both cases). In addition, notable disparities were apparent in C-reactive protein levels among the 2 groups before and after treatment (P=.03 and P=.048 for each time point, respectively), with an upward trend observed in both groups after targeted therapy. The multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that cognitive function is an independent risk factor for PFS in patients with NSCLC receiving targeted therapy. CONCLUSIONS: Cognitive disorder may lead to lower quality of life scores and shorter PFS in patients undergoing targeted therapy. Early screening and intervention for such patients could effectively improve clinical outcomes and quality of life.

[Neurophysiologic evaluation of cognitive disorders in patients with epilepsy].

Aiming to evaluate cognitive disorders in patients with epilepsy examinations were performed using WB scale and event related potentials (ERP) as well as in the control group of healthy volunteers. The study involved 12 patients with epilepsy aging from 15 to 65 years and duration of the disease from 5 to 21 years, 8 males and 4 females: 9 patients received monotherapy and 3 polytherapy. Auditory ERP were studied by averaging 128 expected responses. Recording electrodes were placed by the 10-20 system at sites Fz, C3, Cz, C4, Pz, P4. After recording of the repeated responses the determination of latency of P-300 wave and N2-P3 amplitude were performed. Prolongation of latency of P-300 wave and increased amplitude were recorded in patients with polytherapy and longer duration of the disease. It has been concluded that in patients with chronic epilepsy treated by polytrauma there are changes of the basic characteristics of the parameters of of the cognitive evoked responses.

A polydiagnostic approach to self-perceived cognitive disorders in schizophrenia.

The relationship between the self-perceived cognitive disorders (SPCD) assessed using the Frankfurt Complaint Questionnaire (FCQ) and 21 definitions of schizophrenia was studied in a sample of 118 consecutively admitted patients. The FCQ total score was significantly associated (p < 0.05) with the presence of Schneider's, Yusin's and Present State Examination criteria of schizophrenia. A significant association, in this case negative, was also found between the FCQ total score and the presence of the DSM-III-R criteria of schizophrenia. The results suggest that the SPCDs are more associated with Schneider-related criteria than with chronic or deficit models of schizophrenia. It was also found that the female sex as well as the presence of insight were significantly associated with a greater number of SPCDs.

[Theories of cognitive disorder in schizophrenia based on psychological experiments (author's transl)].

Over the last few years, psychological experiments have provided a major contribution to research in schizophrenia. Historical, practical and theoretical grounds led to investigations mainly in the field of cognitive disorder. Independent psychological theories of schizophrenia emerged from the body of experimental results, at first restricted to mental performance of the patients but later generalized to center on the total problem of schizophrenia. In accordance with psychiatric thinking, psychologists favoured cognitive deficit as the essential schizophrenic characteristic which would possibly generate the basic symptomatology. Apart from methodological considerations, the main question arising is if this feature is truly typical of schizophrenia. The problem of the different concepts of schizophrenia has to be considered in this connection. A survey of theories of schizophrenia which are sufficiently consolidated by psychological experiments reveals that two lines of theoretical reasoning exist: one based on specific cognitive disorder, and the other where this is not the case. Encompassed by the first classification are the considerations of Bannister, Rodnick and Germezy, Shakow, McReynolds, Silvermann, L.J. Chapman, Payne, Mednick, and Epstein, as well as the interference theories (with the exception of Callaway's version)..
