Blickwinkel der Neurowissenschaften: Die Funktion des medialen Temporallappen bei der Verarbeitung von Erinnerung im menschlichen Gedächtnis

Current Topics Regarding the Function of the Medial Temporal Lobe Memory System.

The first clear insight that the medial temporal lobe of the human brain was in fact a system of anatomically connected structures that were organized into a memory system came in 1957 from the observations by Brenda Milner of the noted amnesic patient H.M. Subsequent work in humans, monkeys, and rodents has identified all of the components of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) that formed the memory system. Currently, work is ongoing to identify the specific contributions each structure in the medial temporal lobe makes towards the formation and storage of long-term declarative memory.

Komorbidität der Borderline Erkrankung (emotional-instabile Persönlichkeitsstörung) mit der posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung

Comorbidity of Borderline Personality Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in the U.S. Population

While placed on different axes of the DSM classification system, borderline personality disorder (BPD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have important relationships with trauma, and overlap between these disorders has long been recognized. The current study is the first to examine comorbidity of PTSD and BPD in a large nationally representative sample using a reliable and valid method of assessing Axis I and II mental disorders.

Einfluss der Borderline-Erkrankung auf die Gedächtnisleistungen 

Subjective memory complaints and memory performance in patients with borderline personality disorder

It is still a matter of debate as to whether patients with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) suffer from memory deficits. Existing studies indicate no or small impairments in memory test performance. However, it was shown in patients with related disorders, such as depression, that self-reported impairment exceeds test malfunction. In the present study we assessed memory performance of BPD patients through the use of memory tests and a questionnaire for subjective memory complaints (SMC) in everyday life.

Beurteilung der psychischen Ausgangslage bei Patienten mit Borderlineerkrankung und komorbider posttraumatischer Belastungsstörung

Negative Affect Instability among Individuals with Comorbid Borderline Personality Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

Ecological momentary assessment (EMA; Stone & Shiffman, 1994) was utilized to examine affective instability (AI) in the daily lives of outpatients with borderline personality disorder (BPD; n=78) with and without posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
