Title

EFFECTIVENESS OF MEMANTINE IN IMPROVEMENT OF COGNITIVE DEFICITS IN SPECIFIC LEARNING DISORDER

Pages

  1-11

Abstract

 Background: Specific learning disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent difficulties in learning academic skills in reading, written expression, or mathematics. This study was performed to investigate the effectiveness of MEMANTINE in the relief of COGNITIVE DEFICITS (selective attention, sustained attention, and working memory) in specific learning disorder.Materials and Methods: This study is a clinical trial. Of all children 8-12 years referred to Amir Kabir Hospital 94 patients diagnosed with specific learning disorder based on DSMV diagnostic interview referred by specialist and randomly divided by two groups, MEMANTINE and placebo. COGNITIVE DEFICITS before and after treatment were measured with continuous performance test, Stroop test and Wechsler Digit Span forward and reverse and Corsi test.Results: Multivariate analysis of variance showed a significant difference in error when answering, omission answer and corrected answer in continuous performance test, but this difference is not significant in response time. Difference in forward, reverse and collected auditory was significant and not significant in the auditory span. In active visual working memory at corsi cube test, difference was significant (p<0.05).Conclusion: The results showed that MEMANTINE in improvement of sustained attention, auditory working memory and visual working memory, is effective, while in selective attention is not effective and according to similarities of learning disorder and Attention deficit/Hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and the effectiveness of MEMANTINE in improvement of symptoms of ADHD, we can also use this drug in improvement of COGNITIVE DEFICITS of specific learning disorder.
