Amnesia and neglect: beyond the Delay-Brion system and the Hebb synapse. by Gaffan, D, Hornak, J

“…In explaining memory disorders in amnesia it is also important to consider them alongside the memory disorders of neglect patients. …”

Time trends, frequency, characteristics and prognosis of short-duration transient global amnesia by Romoli, M, Tuna, MAAG, Li, L, Paciaroni, M, Caprioli, FT, Lotti, A, Eusebi, P, Giannandrea, D, Ricci, S, Mosconi, MG, Venti, MP, Gili, A, Stracci, F, Sarchielli, P, Parnetti, L, Rothwell, PM, Calabresi, P

Against memory systems. by Gaffan, D

“…Nevertheless, there are some strong arguments against this idea: medial temporal lesions produce amnesia by disconnecting the entire temporal cortex from neuromodulatory afferents arising in the brainstem and basal forebrain, not by removing cortex; the temporal cortex is essential for perception as well as for memory; and response properties of temporal cortical neurons make it impossible that some kinds of memory trace could be stored in the temporal lobe. …”

The perirhinal cortex and long-term familiarity memory. by Rolls, E, Franco, L, Stringer, S

“…Part of the impairment in temporal lobe amnesia may be related to the difficulty of building representations of the degree of familiarity of stimuli. …”
