Vascular dementia patients show a component of their impairment as emotional. In the two studies that we present it was possible to illustrate the characteristics of such emotional component. a. The discrepancy between immediate recall and delayed recall appears to be very sensitive to anxiety interference when immediate recall is lower than delayed. b. The presence of emotional problems contributing to memory complaints in VaD patients is not equally distributed along the severity of deterioration dimension but can be identified as a specific component different from the cognitive one especially in that subgroup of patients who present an intermediate level of deterioration.
血管性痴呆患者表现出的部分损害是情感方面的。在我们展示的两项研究中，能够阐明这种情感成分的特征。a. 当即时回忆低于延迟回忆时，即时回忆与延迟回忆之间的差异似乎对焦虑干扰非常敏感。b. 导致VaD患者记忆主诉的情感问题在病情恶化程度维度上的分布并不均匀，而是可以被识别为与认知成分不同的特定成分，尤其是在病情恶化处于中等水平的患者亚组中。
