Abstract
In contrast to some former studies with smaller sample sizes, the present study could not detect a relationship of depression with cognitive impairment in patients with unilateral TLE. Likewise, mental distress and cognition were unrelated in our sample of patients. Our results may argue against theoretical models claiming a causal link between depression and cognitive impairment or a common pathogenic mechanism for these conditions in patients with TLE.
