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.

Psychological factors in retrograde amnesia: self-deception and a broken heart [PDF]
We explored potential contributing psychological factors in a patient (‘XF’) with focal retrograde amnesia, within the framework proposed by Kopelman (2000). In particular, we investigated the psychological trait of self-enhancement.

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)

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,

Hypoxia and retrograde amnesia [PDF]
Recent studies have questioned the phenomenon of hypoxia-produced RA on the premise that intracellular hypoxia cannot be produced rapidly enough to prevent the memory-consolidation process., Sixteen albino rats were trained to lever press for sucrose and were subjected to one of four treatments: shock only, hypoxia only, shock plus rapid decompression,

Dynamics of Hippocampal and Cortical Activation during Consolidation of a Nonspatial Memory [PDF]
Observations of temporally graded retrograde amnesia after hippocampal damage suggest that the hippocampal region plays a critical, time-limited role in memory consolidation.

Transient epileptic amnesia: an emerging late-onset epileptic syndrome. [PDF]
Transient epileptic amnesia (TEA) is a distinct neurologic condition occurring in late-middle/old age and presenting with amnesic attacks of epileptic nature and interictal memory disturbances.

A brief review of the literature on retrograde amnesia in Korsakoff's syndrome is presented. Various explanations of the phenomenon are discussed including the notions that it results from the effects of “state-dependency”, that it occurs as a result of ...

Stroke is an extremely uncommon cause of transient global amnesia. Unilateral lesions of the fornix rarely cause amnesia and have not previously been reported to be associated with the distinctive amnesic picture of transient global amnesia.
