Increased Pupil Size during Future Thinking in a Subject with Retrograde Amnesia
Recent research has assessed pupil size during past thinking in patients with retrograde amnesia. Building on this research, we assessed pupil size during future thinking in a retrograde amnesia patient.

Retrograde Amnesia – A Question of Disturbed Calcium Levels?
Retrograde amnesia is the inability to remember events or information. The successful acquisition and memory of information is required before retrograde amnesia may occur. Often, the trigger for retrograde amnesia is a traumatic event.

Profound loss of general knowledge in retrograde amnesia: Evidence from an amnesic artist
Studies of retrograde amnesia have focused on autobiographical memory, with fewer studies examining how non-autobiographical memory is affected. Those that have done so have focused primarily on memory for famous people and public events—relatively ...

Measles-induced immune amnesia and its effects in concurrent epidemics [PDF]
It has been recently discovered that the measles virus can wipe out the adaptive immune system, destroying B lymphocytes and reducing the diversity of non-specific B cells of the infected host. In particular, this implies that previously acquired immunization from vaccination or direct exposition to other pathogens could be erased in a phenomenon named

Suppression of neurotoxic lesion-induced seizure activity: evidence for a permanent role for the hippocampus in contextual memory. [PDF]
Damage to the hippocampus (HPC) using the excitotoxin N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) can cause retrograde amnesia for contextual fear memory. This amnesia is typically attributed to loss of cells in the HPC.

Right Hippocampal Abnormality on Diffusion-weighted MRI in Transient Global Amnesia: Case Report
Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by sudden-onset anterograde amnesia, accompanied by repetitive questioning, sometimes with a retrograde component, lasting up to 24 hours, and without compromise of other neurologic ...

On retrograde orbits, resonances and stability [PDF]
We start by reviewing our previous work on retrograde orbital configurations and on modeling and identifying retrograde resonances. Then, we present new results regarding the enhanced stability of retrograde configurations with respect to prograde configurations in the low mass ratio regime of the planar circular restricted 3-body problem. Motivated by

What is the level of evidence for the amnestic effects of sedatives in pediatric patients? A systematic review and meta-analyses. [PDF]
Studies have suggested that benzodiazepines are amnestic drug par excellence, but when taken together, what level of evidence do they generate? Are other sedatives as amnestic as benzodiazepines?

A possible solution to the Milky Way's binary-deficient retrograde stellar population. Evidence that $ω$ Centauri has formed in an extreme starburst [PDF]
Context. The fraction of field binaries on retrograde orbits about the Milky Way is significantly lower compared to its prograde counterpart. Chemical and dynamical evidence suggests that the retrograde stellar population originates from $\omega$ Centauri, which is either the most massive globular cluster (GC) of the Milky Way or the putative core of a
