Twenty-one patients with major affective disorder were given the Halstead-Reitan Category Test and had CT brain scans performed in order to measure ventricular-brain ratio (VBR). A significant correlation between ventricular size and cognitive impairment was found. Possible pathophysiological mechanisms that might explain this relationship are discussed.
21名患有重度情感障碍的患者接受了霍尔斯特德-赖坦类别测验,并进行了脑部CT扫描以测量脑室脑比率(VBR)。研究发现脑室大小与认知障碍之间存在显著相关性。本文讨论了可能解释这种关系的病理生理机制。
