Journal ArticleDOI

The human hippocampus contributes to both the recollection and familiarity components of recognition memory

TL;DR: High-frequency activity is measured in subjects undergoing direct brain recordings and found that hippocampal HFA dissociated based on both the stimulus evidence presented and the response choice, indicating that the hippocampus supports both the recollection and familiarity processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prestimulus theta in the human hippocampus predicts subsequent recognition but not recall

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that prestimulus theta in the hippocampus indexes encoding that supports old‐new recognition memory but not recall, which suggests that human hippocampal prestimuli theta may preferentially participate in the encoding of item information, as opposed to associative information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stimulation of the human medial temporal lobe between learning and recall selectively enhances forgetting.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of MTL stimulation on memory performance were studied in five patients undergoing invasive electrocorticographic monitoring during various phases of a memory task (encoding, distractor, recall).
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain computer interface to enhance episodic memory in human participants

TL;DR: The results suggest that an electrophysiological signal may be causally linked to a specific behavioral condition, and contingent stimulus presentation has the potential to modulate human memory encoding.
Journal ArticleDOI

External validity of the chiari severity index and outcomes among pediatric chiari I patients treated with intra- or extra-Dural decompression

TL;DR: Equivalent rates of symptom resolution and reoperation following ID and ED decompression support the ED approach as a first-line surgical option for pediatric CM-1 patients and provide preliminary evidence supporting the generalizability of the CSI and its use in future comparative trials.
