Dissociative Amnesia
Dissociative amnesia is a type of dissociative disorder that involves inability to recall important personal information that would not typically be lost with ordinary forgetting. It is usually caused by trauma or stress. Diagnosis is based on history after ruling out other causes of amnesia.

- Can dissociative amnesia be a residual symptom of prolonged complex post-traumatic stress disorder?by İzzet Çağrı Metin on December 20, 2024
CONCLUSION: This case demonstrates the complexity of differentiating dissociative amnesia from organic conditions. Discussing the possible shared mechanisms between CPTSD and dissociative amnesia could contribute to a better understanding of both conditions.
- Effects of idebenone on cognitive function and serum biomarkers in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairmentby Huiting Wang on December 19, 2024
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study demonstrate that idebenone treatment significantly improves cognitive function in individuals with aMCI, particularly in the domain of delayed memory. In addition, idebenone reduces the degree of inflammation and oxidative stress and improves antioxidant levels. These findings suggest that idebenone may be a promising intervention for the management of cognitive impairments associated with aMCI.
- Enantio-Recognition and Charge Transfer Complex Formation Involving Tetrathiafulvalene-Appended Chiral 1,2-Cyclohexane-Diamine: An Integrated Experimental and Theoretical Studyby Camilla Ferrari on December 19, 2024
In this work, we exploit the electronic features of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) as a backbone in synthesizing chiral derivatives. The aim is to make use of TTF's well-known and unique redox and semiconducting properties in the fields of enantio-selective recognition and chiral charge transfer (CT) complex preparation, with the ultimate objective of obtaining devices with various potential applications, ranging from plasmonics to quantum computing. In particular, both cyclohexane-bis...
- Damaged Relay Station: EEG Neurofeedback Training in Isolated Bilateral Paramedian Thalamic Infarctby Mohammed Afsar on December 18, 2024
Stroke is a major public health concern and leads to significant disability. Bilateral thalamic infarcts are rare and can result in severe and chronic cognitive and behavioral disturbances-apathy, personality change, executive dysfunctions, and anterograde amnesia. There is a paucity of literature on neuropsychological rehabilitation in patients with bilateral thalamic infarcts. Mr. M., a 51 years old, married male, a mechanical engineer, working as a supervisor was referred for...
