In patients with epileptic lesions in the hippocampus as well as in the temporal lobe and hippocampus simultaneously, studies were made on the perception of sound signals imitating sound source movement. It was established that hippocampal lesion results in disturbance of estimation of sound spatial characteristics which manifests in a change accuracy of localization and shortening of subjective sound image movement trajectory. Maximum disturbances of localization function are observed during lesions of hippocampus and temporal lobe. Possible neurophysiological mechanism underling observed disturbances are considered.

To summarise the clinical characteristics, radiological features, treatments and prognosis of patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) overlapped with NMDA receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis. We retrospectively analysed patients who exhibited dual positivity for MOG antibodies and NMDAR antibodies in serum/CSF from Jan 2018 to Jun 2023. Ten patients with MOGAD and NMDAR encephalitis were enrolled.

Adaptive behavior depends on the ability to predict specific events, particularly those related to rewards. Armed with such associative information, we can infer the current value of predicted rewards based on changing circumstances and desires. To support this ability, neural systems must represent both the value and identity of predicted rewards, and these representations must be updated when they change.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the role of the hippocampus (HPC) and amygdala in memory formation, particularly focusing on retrograde amnesia that occurs after HPC disruption.
  • Findings reveal that damage to the HPC does not affect conditioned place preference (CPP) tasks, which rely on the basolateral amygdala, suggesting that not all learning tasks require HPC involvement.
  • Additional experiments using the Morris water task indicate that while HPC damage impairs performance, other memory networks can't fully compensate when certain training methods are used, highlighting the complexity of memory processing.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a neuroinflammatory disease of the central nervous system, is one of the commonest causes of non-traumatic disability among young adults. Impaired cognition arises as an impactful symptom affecting more than 50% of the patients and with substantial impact on social, economic, and individual wellbeing. Despite the lack of therapeutic strategies, many efforts have been made to understand the mechanisms behind cognitive impairment in MS patients.
