Corticoamygdalectomy in Memory-Impaired Patients

Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1992
Sixty-seven patients who underwent resection of the amygdala and temporal neocortex for intractable temporal lobe epilepsy were analyzed. Forty-four of them failed memory tests during the intracarotid sodium amytal procedure or showed severe impairment of contralateral material specific memory. Surgical outcome ratings were seizure-free or rare seizure,

Memory impairment in multiple sclerosis

Neuropsychologia, 1984
The memory performance of 22 Multiple Sclerosis (MS) subjects and their matched controls was compared on three tasks: a perceptual memory test, a picture recognition test and a verbal recognition test. Results showed that perceptual memory does not suffer as a consequence of MS.

Stress, Memory, and Memory Impairment

2016
Stress can have impairing, enhancing, or no influence on memory systems and processes. The present chapter reviews, albeit selectively, the impact of stress on human memory with a particular focus on clinical populations. The consequence of stress on memory systems will be reviewed focusing on working memory, implicit and explicit memory, episodic, and

Memory impairment in multiple sclerosis

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, 1990
We compared the performance of 50 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and 35 normal controls on a variety of memory tasks to determine the nature and severity of memory deficits in the MS patients and the proportion of patients affected. We also determined the relationship between memory and other cognitive functions, demographic factors, disease ...

Memory Impairment in Parkinson's Disease

Neuroscience and Behavioral Physiology, 2001
A total of 52 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), 11 with presumptive Alzheimer's disease (AD), and 20 healthy subjects were studied; subjects were aged 55-74 years. Neurological symptoms were assessed quantitatively, and the state of higher mental processes were evaluated using the Luriya method. A number of memory tests were also used.

Semantic memory is impaired in schizophrenia

Biological Psychiatry, 1996
Memory is emerging as a key area of neuropsychological deficit in schizophrenia, with evidence suggesting that the impairment is restricted to long-term memory. Semantic memory, the component of long-term memory containing stored representations of the meanings of words and knowledge about the world, was examined in 46 schizophrenic patients and 40 ...

Impairment of constructive memory in schizophrenia

International Clinical Psychopharmacology, 2002
Episodic memories are characterized by a specific state of awareness, conscious recollection, which allows subjects to mentally relive past events. They are not a literal reproduction of the past but instead depend on constructive processes. Patients with schizophrenia exhibit a specific impairment of conscious recollection.

Impairment of memory and attention in the elderly

Neuroscience and Behavioral Physiology, 2007
The second half of the last century saw an increase in the proportion of elderly and aged people and the numbers of these groups are expected to increase in the near future [3]. This demographic tendency is sometimes termed “population aging.” It occurs in most European countries, including Russia.

Age-associated memory impairment

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000
At present, there is no formally approved or generally accepted treatment for age-associated memory impairment (AAMI). Since 1991, when regulatory agencies took a cautious stance on pharmacologic treatments for AAMI, there have been no clinical drug treatment trials for this condition.
