Effect of comorbid depressive disorder on working memory and functional brain activity in alcohol-dependent patients
https://doi.org/10.25789/YMJ.2020.71.29
Abstract
Changes in the activity of the cerebral cortex during the task on working memory in alcohol-dependent patients with and without comorbid depressive disorder were under study.
Lower values of working memory volume were found in alcohol-dependent patients with comorbid depressive disorder compared to patients suffering only from alcohol dependence, which is accompanied by differences in the activation of the cortex. In patients with comorbidity of alcohol dependence and depressive disorder, only beta activity in the posterior cortex changes during the task on working memory.
