A case of global and persistent amnesia due to a right polar and anterior thalamic infarction is reported. There was a moderate impairment of attention and categorization ability. The amnesia was primarily anterograde, with partial disturbance of short-term memory and severe deficit of long-term memory for verbal and visuo-spatial materials. A severe increase of pro-active interference was present. Retrograde memory was mildly affected. Two years later, a second infarction in the right thalamo-sub-thalamic territory occurred, increasing the deficits of attention, short-term memory and recall.

Fear extinction is the foundation of exposure therapy for anxiety and phobias. However, the stability of extinction memory diminishes over time, coinciding with fear recovery. To augment long-term extinction retention, the temporal distribution of extinction learning sessions is critical.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant risk factor for cerebrovascular disease. However, there is limited research on how successful living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) affects cerebral blood flow (CBF). This study aims to comprehensively investigate how LDKT influences CBF across various brain levels and regions.

Artificial light sources, particularly blue light, have raised concerns about their impact on biological health and behavior. In this study, we explored the effects of blue light on the locomotion and cognitive functions of early adult Drosophila melanogaster. Our experiments were conducted in a custom-designed behavioral arena to assess how blue light influences these parameters.

We employ the NN model based on bi-directional long short-term memory (biLSTM) and 1D-convolutional NN (1D-CNN) layers. To reduce the computation complexity of the proposed solution, weight clustering is applied to the NN.
