Here we report on five patients who developed memory deficits such as transient global amnesia immediately after PDT for actinic keratosis. All PDT treatments were performed according to standard therapy protocols.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
During the 5 years until his death, R.B. exhibited marked anterograde amnesia, little if any retrograde amnesia, and showed no signs of cognitive impairment other than memory.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
AmnesiaAmnesia means literally ‘a lack of or an absence of memory’. In practice, however, nobody forgets absolutely everything, so amnesia refers to a failure of some part of the memory system(s).[headway.org.uk]
What Is the Prognosis for Possible Early Dementia? In a majority of people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), the condition eventually worsens.[emedicinehealth.com]
The extent of the period covered by the amnesia is related to the degree of injury and may give an indication of the prognosis for recovery of other functions.[en.wikipedia.org]
Clinicians noting cognitive impairment in individuals with PTSD should exercise caution before ascribing that impairment to another etiology if deficits are limited to memory.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Thus, although a first trauma elicits inhibiting responses, which may be protective, experiencing more than one unpredictable trauma is a critical contributor of PTSD etiology. hippocampus memory molecular mechanisms PTSD stress trauma View Full Text[jneurosci.org]
