Retrograde amnesia for semantic information in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease and normal controls were tested on a retrograde amnesia test with semantic content (Neologism and Vocabulary Test, or NVT), consisting of neologisms to be defined. Patients showed a decrement as compared

Retrograde amnesia for facts and events: Findings from four new cases [PDF]
Two patients with presumed hippocampal formation lesions and two patients with more extensive temporal lobe damage, all of whom became amnesic in a known year, were given tests of anterograde and retrograde memory function.

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 ...

Psychogenic amnesia: syndromes, outcome, and patterns of retrograde amnesia [PDF]
There are very few case series of patients with acute psychogenic memory loss (also known as dissociative/functional amnesia), and still fewer studies of outcome, or comparisons with neurological memory-disordered patients.

A mathematical model of forgetting and amnesia
We describe a mathematical model of learning and memory and apply it to the dynamics of forgetting and amnesia. The model is based on the hypothesis that the neural systems involved in memory at different time-scales share two fundamental properties: (1)

Temporally Graded Activation of Neocortical Regions in Response to Memories of Different Ages [PDF]
The temporally graded memory impairment seen in many neurobehavioral disorders implies different neuroanatomical pathways and/or cognitive mechanisms involved in storage and retrieval of memories of different ages.

Socially Transmitted Food Preference (STFP) Task Protocol
Temporally-graded retrograde amnesia (TGRA) refers to a phenomenon of premorbid memory loss whereby information acquired recently is more impaired than information acquired more remotely. Studies of human amnesia have illuminated this phenomenon (Hodges,

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.

“I don't know why I am in hospital”: amnesia in non-fatal hanging
There is an extreme dearth of empirical studies assessing the neuropsychiatric outcome of non-fatal hanging that indicates little attention to the area has been paid.

Semantic Knowledge for Famous Names in Mild Cognitive Impairment [PDF]
Person identification represents a unique category of semantic knowledge that is commonly impaired in Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD), but has received relatively little investigation in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
