U.S., May 14 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06967935) titled 'Sleep and Rehearsal-Driven Memory in Epilepsy' on May 05.
Brief Summary: Memory consolidation transforms unstable memory traces into lasting representations, a process enhanced by both sleep and rehearsal during learning. Rehearsal is thought to accelerate consolidation by inducing memory reactivations that resemble those occurring during sleep. However, the respective mechanisms of sleep- and rehearsal-induced consolidation-and their potential interactions-remain poorly understood, especially in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy, where rehearsal might help compensate for memory deficits linked to hippocampal dysfunction, and wher...
