The acquisition of fear associative memory requires brain processes of coordinated neural
activity within the amygdala, prefrontal cortex (PFC), hippocampus, thalamus and brainstem …

Translational research on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has produced limited
improvements in clinical practice. Fear conditioning (FC) is one of the dominant animal …

Interactions between the mediodorsal thalamus and the prefrontal cortex are critical for
cognition. Studies in humans indicate that these interactions may resolve uncertainty in …

Adaptive behaviour necessitates the formation of memories for fearful events, but also that
these memories can be extinguished. Effective extinction prevents excessive and persistent …

Beliefs can be highly resilient in the sense that they are not easily abandoned in the face of
counterevidence. This has the advantage of guiding consistent behavior and judgments but …

Threat processing is central to understanding debilitating fear-and trauma-related disorders
such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Progress has been made in understanding …

The ability to adapt to dynamic environments requires tracking multiple signals with variable
sensory salience and fluctuating behavioral relevance. This complex process requires …

Ginsenoside Rg1 is efficient to prevent or treat mental disorders. However, the mechanisms
underlying the effects of ginsenoside Rg1 on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are still …

Literature points to cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and eye movement desensitization
and reprocessing (EMDR) as evidence-based therapies for trauma-related disorders …

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a treatment for post-traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD). The technique is known to facilitate reprocessing of maladaptive …
