Abstract:
Reaction slowing observed in dialyzed patients results from deficits in initiating and sustaining motor response mobilization. The present study aimed at investigating whether these deficits are reversible following successful kidney transplantation. To achieve this goal, behavioral and electrophysiological (EEG) data were assessed from healthy control participants as well as kidney transplant and dialyzed patients performing a series of reaction time tasks. The results demonstrated that in patients who received kidney transplant a normalization of response latencies and brain preparatory activity was observed. At the same time, when compared to healthy individuals, increased attention engagement was observed in both clinical groups of patients. No behavioral and electrophysiological indices of impaired monitoring were observed in any of the clinical groups.
