Cognitive impairment (CI) and memory deficit are prevalent manifestations of multiple sclerosis (MS). This study explores the therapeutic potential of arbutin on memory deficits using a rat hippocampal demyelination model induced by lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC). Demyelination was induced by bilateral injection of 1% LPC into the CA1 area of the hippocampus, and the treated group received daily arbutin injections (50 mg/kg, i.

Neuromodulation therapy, like spinal cord stimulation (SCS), benefits individuals with chronic diseases, improving outcomes of patients with heart failure (HF). This systematic review aims to investigate the efficacy of SCS when used as an adjunctive therapy in HF. A systematic analysis of all studies that included SCS therapy in human participants with HF was conducted.

Cognitive impairment and memory deficit are common features in multiple Sclerosis patients. The mechanism of memory impairment in MS is unknown, but neuroimaging studies suggest that hippocampal demyelination is involved. Here, we investigate the role of GABA A receptor on spatial memory in the local model of hippocampal demyelination.
