Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how the morphology of hippocampal subfields relates to long-term memory performance in patients with focal epilepsy, focusing on accelerated long-term forgetting (ALF).
- Researchers assessed memory through testing and MRI on 80 epilepsy patients and 30 healthy controls, finding that certain hippocampal regions relate to memory retention over time.
- Results indicate that atrophy in the CA1 region of the left hippocampus is linked to decreased verbal memory retention, suggesting a specific area of the hippocampus plays a critical role in long-term memory in these patients.
