A Case of Transient Global Amnesia: A Review and How It May Shed Further Insight into the Neurobiology of Delusions
Conclusion In closing, our patient’s episode of TGA combined with her emotional and perceptual response lends credence to the proposal of a “fear/paranoia” circuit in the genesis of paranoid delusions—a circuit incorporating amygdala, frontal, and parietal cortices. Here, neutral or irrelevant stimuli, thoughts, and percepts come to engender fear and anxiety, while dysfunction in frontoparietal circuitry engenders inappropriate social predictions and maladaptive inferences about the intentions of others.[54] Hippocampus relays information about contextual information based on past experiences and the current situat...

Ischemic complications after tailored carotid artery stenting in different subpopulations with high-grade stenosis: Feared but rare
Publication date: Available online 28 November 2014 Source:Journal of Clinical Neuroscience Author(s): José E. Cohen , J. Moshe Gomori , Eyal Itshayek , Stylianos Pikis , Galina Keigler , Roni Eichel , Ronen R. Leker Although the procedural and postoperative safety profile of carotid artery stenting (CAS) has been steadily improving, many centers still recommend carotid endarectomy (CEA) over CAS. We assessed outcomes (procedural and postoperative stroke) following tailored CAS in a cohort of patients managed at a single academic medical center. Outcomes for patients with carotid artery stenosis treated from 2005–2013...
