These results suggest that a specific interaction with prefrontal cortex activation does not underlie the amnesic effect of midazolam. However, it remains possible that a threshold level of prefrontal rCBF is necessary for encoding and that, after midazolam, this was not reached.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
