The epidemiology of epilepsy in Rochester, Minnesota, 1935 through 1967.

TL;DR: Comprehensive review of methods indicates that, although rates may indeed differ among different populations, a major problem is the wide variation in the completeness of case ascertainment and the definitions of epilepsy used.

The Pathology of Vascular (“Arteriovenous”) Malformations

TL;DR: While the relationship of vascular malformations to vascular neoplasms is still less than completely clear (Raynor and Kingman '65), it seems relatively certain tha t arteriovenous mal Formations are true developmental malformation and not neoplasm, most notably the cavernous angiomas.

Syndromes of transient amnesia: towards a classification. A study of 153 cases.

TL;DR: Of 153 patients presenting with acute transient amnesia, 114 fulfilled the proposed strict diagnostic criteria for transient global amnesia (TGA), and the group of 39 patients who did not meet the criteria for TGA had a significantly worse prognosis with a high incidence of major vascular events.

The Episodic Memory System: Neurocircuitry and Disorders

Chunking and Consolidation: A Theoretical Synthesis of Semantic Networks, Configuring in Conditioning, S-R versus Cognitive Learning, Normal Forgetting, the Amnesic Syndrome, and the Hippocampal Arousal System.

TL;DR: The hippocampal cortex has the capacity for chunking, but the hippocampal (limbic) arousal system plays a critical role in this chunking process by differentiall y priming (partially activating) free, as opposed to bound, neurons as discussed by the authors.
