Popis:	Electrophysiological and neuropsychological parameters of improvement of the functional state of the brain were studied in patients with mild vascular dementia upon an increase in the activity of cholinergic systems (as a result of treatment with Reminyl). The functional state of the brain was significantly improved as evidenced by a decrease in the EEG spectral power in slow-wave bands and its increase in the band of the γ rhythm, which is involved in cognitive processes in humans. Psychometric tests indicated a significant improvement in cognitive functions.
