Journal ArticleDOI
Acute effects of ketamine on memory systems and psychotic symptoms in healthy volunteers.
TL;DR: The data suggest that, in humans, ketamine produces a selective pattern of impairments to working, episodic, and procedural memory but not to perceptual priming, attention or aspects of executive functioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ketamine: Use in Anesthesia
Susan Marland,John Ellerton,Gary Andolfatto,Giacomo Strapazzon,Øyvind Thomassen,Brigitta Brandner,Andrew Weatherall,Peter Paal,Peter Paal +8 more
TL;DR: Ketamine is a useful agent for induction of anesthesia, procedural sedation, and analgesia and its properties are appealing in many awkward clinical scenarios, but practitioners need to be cognizant of its side effects and limitations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cerebrospinal fluid anandamide levels, cannabis use and psychotic-like symptoms
Celia J. A. Morgan,Emma Page,Carola Schaefer,Katharine Chatten,Amod Manocha,Sumit Gulati,H. Valerie Curran,Brigitta Brandner,F. Markus Leweke +8 more
TL;DR: Higher levels of anandamide are associated with a lower risk of psychotic symptoms following cannabis use, and are negatively correlated with persisting psychotic symptoms when drug-free.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ketamine can reduce harmful drinking by pharmacologically rewriting drinking memories
Ravi K. Das,Grace Gale,Katie Walsh,Vanessa E Hennessy,Georges Iskandar,Luke Mordecai,Brigitta Brandner,Merel Kindt,Valerie Curran,Sunjeev K. Kamboj +9 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a single dose of ketamine, given after retrieval of alcohol-reward memories, disrupts the reconsolidation of these memories and reduces drinking in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute effects of opioids on memory functions of healthy men and women.
James Friswell,Caroline Phillips,James Holding,Celia J. A. Morgan,Brigitta Brandner,H. Valerie Curran +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that these standard doses of opioids have only marginal effects on memory, and clinicians can feel confident in prescribing them on an outpatient basis without impacting on patients’ daily functioning.
