    Author: Brunner R, Schaefer D, Hess K, Parzer P, Resch F, Schwab S.
    Journal: Neurology; 2005 Jan 25; 64(2):335-7. PubMed ID: 15668434.
    Abstract:
    The effect of acute high-dose glucocorticoid therapy on memory function in patients with acute optic neuritis (n = 9) and multiple sclerosis (n = 21) was studied. All patients had reversible impairment of long-term memory functions, whereas measures of short-term memory, attentional functions, and alertness remained unaffected.
