Cognitive impairment is correlated with and unstable mental health profile

C erebral function is mainly reorganized during years between adolescence and midlife. This important period is
characterised by creation of synapses, fine-tuning of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitter systems, improvement
of brain structures, and development of nervous connections. Indeed most of brain diseases result due to variance or damage
to any of these events. Variances or imbalances in timing of neuronal maturity process strongly increase the risk for cognitive
impairments and certainly leads to the development of neurodegenerative diseases, dementia, anxiety and psychiatric disorders
in unknown rate in the groups of young adults (aged between eighteen years old until midlife). Moreover, these changes also
influenced the risk for Alzheimer disease, Dementia and other associated diseases. The aim of this study is to explore how
detection of cognitive impairments is link with a combined effect of sociodemographic items we choose, on a healthy young
adult’s population. This epidemiological study was leaded with a questionnaire incorporating the short fifteen items version of
cognitive complaints detection’s Mc Nair Test which is used for detect cognitive complains. The questionnaire also included
ten socio-demographic items and fourty seven others questions divided in seven sections: quality of sleep, level of stress,
depression, anxiety, general health, physical skills, and dependences. Our results suggested a strong link between increasing
in memory deficit and the combination of at least two bad score to each section, with a significant correlation with unstable
mental health profile.
Biography
Etindele Sosso Faustin Armel is PhD student of Neurophysiology in university of Montreal. He has completed a Master degree in Microbiology in university
of Yaounde I in Cameroon, and A master degree in anesthesiology in University Central of Tunis in Tunisia. His research concerns cerebral plasticity and his
interactions with neuronal memory. His objective is to develop a model of prediction for cognitive impairments related to neurodegenerative diseases.
