The two groups did not differ consistently in the amount they recalled orally. Moreover, the two groups tended to recall the same parts of the stories, indicating that both groups are sensitive to the stories' structure.

A speeded probed recall task is used, in which a list of words is presented, immediately followed by a probe; participants must report as fast as possible the word that was in the probed position.

Propofol Modulates Fear Memory Reconsolidation by Inhibiting D2 Receptor-Expressing Neurons in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)This study shows that propofol modulates fear‐memory reconsolidation in mice. It works by suppressing D2 receptor‐expressing neurons within the medial prefrontal cortex and their connections to the basolateral amygdala. D2‐receptor agonists reproduce this fear‐reducing effect, offering potential non‐anesthetic therapeutic strategies for trauma‐related ...
