“…Earlier human and animal studies on the associations between memory dysfunction and PTSD reported impairments in both acquisition and recall related with a reduced ability to consolidate memory (Bremner, Vermetten, Afzal, & Vythilingam, 2004;Diamond, Fleshner, Ingersoll, & Rose, 1996;Gilbertson, Gurvits, Lasko, Orr, & Pitman, 2001;Golier, Harvey, Legge, & Yehuda, 2006;Luine, Villegas, Martinez, & McEwen, 1994). The most commonly reported deficits in memory function in patients with PTSD are deficits in episodic memory (Golier & Yehuda, 2002;Golier et al, 2006;Samuelson, 2011;Zlomuzica et al, 2018), with some evidence suggesting difficulties with visual (Aase et al, 2017;Sierk et al, 2019) and autobiographical memory (Dalgleish, Rolfe, Golden, Dunn, & Barnard, 2008;Wessel, Merckelbach, & Dekkers, 2002). Deficits in memory also may predict treatment outcomes with behavioral interventions.…”

Compelling evidence from animal and human research suggest a strong link between inflammation and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Furthermore, recent findings support compromised neurocognitive function as a key feature of PTSD, particularly with deficits in attention and processing speed, executive function, and memory. These cognitive domains are supported by brain structures and neural pathways that are disrupted in PTSD and which are implicated in fear learning and extinction processes. The disruption of these supporting structures potentially results from their interaction with inflammation. Thus, the converging evidence supports a model of inflammatory dysregulation and cognitive dysfunction as combined mechanisms underpinning PTSD symptomatology. In this review, we summarize evidence of dysregulated inflammation in PTSD and further explore how the neurobiological underpinnings of PTSD, in the context of fear learning and extinction acquisition and recall, may interact with inflammation. We then present evidence for cognitive dysfunction in PTSD, highlighting findings from human work. Potential therapeutic approaches utilizing novel pharmacological and behavioral interventions that target inflammation and cognition also are discussed.

Learning, memory, attention, inhibitory functions, and information processing biases frequently accompany PTSD, reflecting potential bi-directional relationships with PTSD. Although mild TBI is associated with increased risk of PTSD development and maintenance, TBI does not typically contribute significantly to sustained neurocognitive deficits in individuals with PTSD. Whereas better learning and memory is associated with mildly enhanced response to psychosocial interventions, such interventions may also improve neurocognitive performance and can be effectively provided to patients with TBI history. PTSD is associated with cognitive abnormalities in processing both emotionally relevant and emotionally neutral information and, although mild, may underlie some PTSD symptom expression.
