memory is the cognitive ability that allows acquiring, store and recalling information. anterior thalamic dysfunction creates memory deficits in rats and humans. anterior thalamus forms a memory network in connection with the hippocampus. this connectivity profile proposes that ventrolateral and anterior thalamus may display a nexus between reminder and control functions, such as action or atte...

materials and methods in this experimental study, nmri male mice were placed in groups receiving atropine (0.1 and 1 mg/kg), recipient of mgo-n (1, 2.5, and 5 mg/kg) and groups receiving atropine in effective dose and different doses of mgo-n were used. saline was used as a vehicle for drugs in the control groups. memory was evaluated with a step-down apparatus to determine the coming down late...

the central cholinergic system has been associated with cognitive function and memory and acetylcholine plays an important role during the early stages of memory consolidation. in this study, after training mice were tested with one way active avoidance procedure and retention were tested at 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24 hours of training and compared with non-shocked mice, in which it took 24 hours, a s...

abstract: introduction & objective: the hippocampal formation is a part of limbic system that plays an important role in memory and learning. the hippocampus is divided into three subfields: ca1, ca2 and ca3. in addition to pyramidal neurons and interneurons, the astrocytes play important roles in hippocampus, probably in memory and learning. in fact, learning needs some instruments for informa...

electroconvulsive therapy (ect) is an efficient treatment for several neuropsychiatric disorders however a large number of patients develop memory impairment after ect. different studies both on animals and human suggest that vasopressin has positive effects on memory and improves cognitive functions. in this randomized, double-blind controlled clinical trial, 50 patients with psychiatric disor...

Objectives: Specificity impairment is a memory alteration that occurs in people with major depressive disorder (MDD). In this investigation, we intended to shine a light on obscure aspects of executive resource and capture and rumination frameworks to determine whether these theories are reliable in predicting underlying mechanisms for specificity impairment. Methods: In this correlational res...

abstract aim and background: evaluation of cognition is fundamental for every comprehensive epilepsy program. we sought to conduct this study to assess memory state of patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy before decision for epilepsy surgery. method and materials: in a case-control study, 20 patients with right temporal lobe epilepsy and 20 patients with left temporal lobe epilepsy w...
