Sir, We read with interest the study of Coras et al. (2014) reporting the absence of verbal anterograde episodic memory (AEM) impairment in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) with a hippocampal sclerosis ILAE type 2 classification (HS ILAE 2, i.e. CA1 predominant cell loss). This finding may provide an anatomical basis for the dissociation of anterograde/long-term episodic memor...

Low-angle X -ray diffraction experiments w ith living relaxed and contracting guinea-pig taenia coli muscles have led to the discovery of a m eridional reflexion a t about 14.3 nm whose presence establishes the existence of a regular assembly of myosin molecules in the form of filamentous elements (Lowy, Poulsen & V ibert 1970). From m easurem ents of the shape of the 14.3 nm reflexion it is po...

Using the first nationally representative detailed income data for India from the 2005 India Human Development Survey (IHDS), Desai and colleagues (2010) reported Indian income inequality to have the high levels typical for lowand middle-income countries. The IHDS Gini of 0.52 puts India at a similar level as Brazil (0.49) and well above the levels observed even in the most unequal high-income ...

The transverse patterning (TP) task (A+ B-, B+ C-, C+ A-) has played a central role in testing the hypothesis that medial-temporal (and, in particular, hippocampal) brain damage selectively impairs learning on at least some classes of configural (i.e., nonlinear) learning tasks. Results in the animal and human literature generally support that hypothesis. Reed and Squire [Impaired transverse pa...

Objective: To explore the feasibility and clinic value of super-early operation in treatment of high-grade intracranial aneurysm with ruptured hemorrhage. Methods: From August, 2014 to March, 2016, 46 patients suffering high-grade ruptured intracranial aneurysm were collected. Among them, 23 patients were treated with early operation (operation within 48 or 72 h, group A) while the rest receive...

The present exploratory study has examined the effects of media exposure on western enculturation of youth in the urban town of Dera Ismail Khan in context of the debate on New International Information Communication Order (NIICO) in international fora on western cultural imperialism of the developing societies. The present study proposes the concept of the media use, i. e, exposure to Urdu mov...

We present a new modeling framework for recognition memory and repetition priming based on signal detection theory. We use this framework to specify and test the predictions of 4 models: (a) a single-system (SS) model, in which one continuous memory signal drives recognition and priming; (b) a multiple-systems-1 (MS1) model, in which completely independent memory signals (such as explicit and i...
