The test consists 12 nouns, four words each from one of three semantic categories (e.g., precious gems, articles of clothing, vegetables, etc.), to be learned over the course of three learning trials. Approximately 20-25 min later, a delayed recall trial and a recognition trial are completed. The delayed recall requires free recall of any words remembered. The recognition trial is composed of 24 words, including the 12 target words and 12 false-positives, 6 semantically related, \& 6 semantically unrelated. When scoring the HVLT, the three learning trials are combined to calculate a total recall score (0-36); the delayed recall trial creates the delayed recall score ( -12) ; the retention (%) score (0-100%) is calculated by dividing the delayed recall trial by the higher of learning trial 2 or 3; and the recognition discrimination index is comprised by subtracting the total number of false positives from the total number of true positives. A higher score = higher cognition.

The F-A-S Test, a subtest of the Neurosensory Center Comprehensive Examination for Aphasia (NCCEA), is a measure of phonemic word fluency, which is a type of verbal fluency. It assesses phonemic fluency by requesting an individual to orally produce as many words as possible that begin with the letters F, A, and S within a prescribed time frame (1 minute)

The GPT assesses eye-hand coordination and motor speed and thus requires sensory motor integration and a high level of motor processing. The test apparatus consists of a square metal surface (10.1 cm2) with a 5 × 5 matrix of keyhole shaped holes in various orientations. The task requires the examinee to pick up the keyhole shaped peg (3 mm in diameter) individually from the well just above the 5 × 5 matrix of holes from left to right and top to bottom as quickly as possible using the dominant hand. Because the holes are in various orientations, examinees must manipulate each peg in their hand (usually between the index finger and thumb) so that the peg aligns with the orientation of the hole. A faster time, indicates greater cognitive functioning.

The test measures recognition memory for the elements of the Rey complex figure, and assesses the respondent's ability to use cues to retrieve information. Scoring of drawings is based on the widely used 36-point scoring system. Each of the 18 scoring units is scored based on accuracy and placement criteria. Items of the figure can earn points: 1. Correct Image: placed properly (2 points), placed poorly (1 point) 2. Distorted or Incomplete Image, but recognizable: placed properly (1 point), placed poorly (1/2) point 3. Absent or not recognizable: 0 points Scale ranges 0-36. with 36 being greatest cognitive function.

The WSFQ contains 17 items that assess the domains of sexual desire/libido (6 items), arousal (1 item), orgasm/erectile function (7 items), and satisfaction(3 items). A five-point Likert-type scale ranging from "always" to "never" is used to generate a total score and four domain scores. The possible range of total sexual function scores is 17 to 85. Higher scores indicate better sexual function.

IIEF Questionnaire is used for the clinical assessment of erectile dysfunction and treatment outcomes in clinical trials. A score of 0-5 is awarded to each of the 15 questions which refer to the past 4 weeks only. The questions are split into the 4 main domains of male sexual function: erectile function, orgasmic function, sexual desire and intercourse satisfaction. The total score ranges from 6-75 with 6 being minimal erectile function and 75 representing maximal erectile function.

Timeframe: baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks

IIEF Questionnaire is used for the clinical assessment of erectile dysfunction and treatment outcomes in clinical trials, one domain being sexual desire. A score of 0-5 is awarded to each of the 2 questions which refer to the past 4 weeks only. The score rangers from 2-10, with a score of 2 indicating very low or none at all, and 10 representing almost always/very high.

The ESS is a self-administered questionnaire with 8 questions. Respondents are asked to rate, on a 4-point scale (0-3), their usual chances of dozing off or falling asleep while engaged in eight different activities. Most people engage in those activities at least occasionally, although not necessarily every day. The ESS score (the sum of 8 item scores, 0-3) can range from 0 to 24. The higher the ESS score, the higher that person's average sleep propensity in daily life (ASP), or their 'daytime sleepiness'.
