Alleviating memory impairment through distraction.
Distraction typically has a negative impact on memory for recent events and patients with existing memory impairment are particularly vulnerable to distractor interference. In contrast, here we establish a beneficial effect for distractor presentation in humans for both patients with memory impairment due to bilateral hippocampal lesions and healthy adults with low memory performance. Recogniti...
متن کاملWhen distraction benefits memory through semantic similarity
The processing of the relation between targets and distracters which underpins the impairment in memory for visually presented words when accompanied by semantically related auditory distracters—the between-sequence semantic similarity effect—might also disambiguate category membership of to-be-remembered words, bringing about improved memory for these words at recall. In this series of experim...
متن کاملAlleviating Malnutrition through Horticulture
Horticulture is an important subsector of agriculture. The potential of horticultural crops has not yet been fully explored or exploited in Bangladesh. More than 90 vegetables and 60 fruits are grown in Bangladesh, with great regional variation in the extent of cultivation. The cultivated area given to fruits and vegetables is 0.52 million hectares, covering 3.7 percent of total cropped area. V...
متن کاملWorking Memory, Rumination, and Autobiographical Memory Specificity Impairment
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...
متن کاملMelatonin Mitigates Kainic Acid-Induced Neuronal Tau Hyperphosphorylation and Memory Deficits through Alleviating ER Stress
Kainic acid (KA) exposure causes neuronal degeneration featured by Alzheimer-like tau hyperphosphorylation and memory deficits. Melatonin (Mel) is known to protect hippocampal neurons against KA-induced damage. However, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In the current study, we investigated the protective effect of melatonin on KA-induced tau hyperphosphorylation by focusing on endoplas...
