In this study we examine the possibility of discrete pattern of neuropsychological deficits of MS subtypes. 28 patients (13 RRMS, 6 CIS, and 9 SPMS) were assessed with a comprehensive neuropsycholgical battery. Results indicate that only the SPMS group demonstrates memory and executive impairment. This finding indicates possible differentiation of the three subtypes in terms of neuropsychological profiles. Psychiatric aspects of MS are also briefly discussed.

Agrammatism was originally defined as ‘telegraphic’ speech output characterizing nonfluent types of aphasia. During the last five decades, it has been well documented that agrammatic patients frequently present impaired comprehension of syntactically complex sentences, a phenomenon known as ‘asyntactic comprehension.’ Although agrammatism was traditionally linked to frontal lesion loci, such as Broca's area, contemporary lesion and brain-imaging studies depict a widely distributed neural network, consisting of frontal, temporal, and parietal cortical regions, associated with syntactic processing and agrammatic performance. Possible relationships between syntactic comprehension and working memory are also discussed.

The study examined the rate of decline in verbal episodic memory as a function of education level, auditory attention span and verbal working memory capacity, and diagnosis of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (a-MCI). Data were available on a community sample of 653 adults aged 17-86 years and 70 patients with a-MCI recruited from eight broad geographic areas in Greece and Cyprus. Measures of auditory attention span and working memory capacity (digits forward and backward) and verbal episodic memory (Auditory Verbal Learning Test [AVLT]) were used. Moderated mediation regressions on data from the community sample did not reveal significant effects of education level on the rate of age-related decline in AVLT indices. The presence of a-MCI was a significant moderator of the direct effect of Age on both immediate and delayed episodic memory indices. The rate of age-related decline in verbal episodic memory is normally m...
