Depression Impairs Learning, whereas the Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor, Paroxetine, Impairs Generalization in Patients with Major Depressive Disorder
(Elsevier, 2014-11-01)To better understand how medication status and task demands affect cognition in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), we evaluated medication-naïve patients with MDD, medicated patients with MDD receiving the Selective Serotonin ... -
Diabetes mellitus: The epidemic of the century
(Baishideng Publishing Group Inc., 2015-06-25)The epidemic nature of diabetes mellitus in different regions is reviewed. The Middle East and North Africa region has the highest prevalence of diabetes in adults (10.9%) whereas, the Western Pacific region has the ... -
Dissociating the Cognitive Effects of Levodopa versus Dopamine Agonists in aNeurocomputational Model of Learning in Parkinson's Disease
(Karger AG, Basel, 2012-11-01)Background/Aims: Levodopa and dopamine agonists have different effects on the motor, cognitive, and psychiatric aspects of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Methods: Using a computational model of basal ganglia (BG) and prefrontal ... -

Effects of diabetes definition on global surveillance of diabetes prevalence and diagnosis: a pooled analysis of 96 population-based studies with 331 288 participants.
(2015-06-22)Background Diabetes has been defi ned on the basis of diff erent biomarkers, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h plasma glucose in an oral glucose tolerance test (2hOGTT), and HbA1c. We assessed the eff ect of ... -
Total Antioxidant Status in Type 2 Diabetic Patients in Palestine
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2015-05-12)The objective of this study was to compare the level of total antioxidant status (TAS) in type 2 diabetic and normal Palestinian subjects as well as the major factors influencing TAS levels. A sample of convenience composed ... -
Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and bone turnover markers in Palestinian postmenopausal osteoporosis and normal women
(Springer, 2017-01-26)Summary This study evaluated the association of vitaminD and bone markers with the development osteoporosis in Palestinian postmenopausal women. Even though vitamin D deficiency was very high for the recruited subjects, ... -
Prevalence and awareness of osteoporosis among postmenopausal Palestinian women
(Springer, 2010-05-18)Summary The prevalence and awareness of postmenopausal osteoporosis was assessed among 569 postmenopausal women randomly selected from the population. Osteoporosis was assessed based on bone mineral density (BMD) values ... -
Learning from negative feedback in patients with major depressive disorder is attenuated by SSRI antidepressants
(2013-09-23)One barrier to interpreting past studies of cognition and major depressive disorder (MDD) has been the failure in many studies to adequately dissociate the effects of MDD from the potential cognitive side effects of selective ... -
Hippocampal BOLD Response During Category Learning Predicts Subsequent Performanceon Transfer Generalization
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-10-13)To test a prediction of our previous computational model of cortico-hippocampal interaction (Gluck and Myers [1993, 2001]) for characterizing individual differences in category learning, we studied young healthy subjects ... -
A neural model of hippocampalstriatal interactions in associative learningand transfer generalization in various neurological and psychiatric patients
(Elsevier, 2010-08-21)Building on our previous neurocomputational models of basal ganglia and hippocampal region function (and their modulation by dopamine and acetylcholine, respectively), we show here how an integration of these models can ... -
A model of reversal learning and working memory in medicated and unmedicated patients with Parkinsons disease
(Elsevier, 2014-10-18)Wepresent a neural network model of cognition in medicated and unmedicated patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) in various learning and memory tasks. The model extends our prior models of the basal ganglia and PD with ...
