used to describe a forward movement, for example the normal flow of blood in the body, or a movement of nerve signals away from the body of the cell to the synapse (= the point at which the signal moves to another cell)

The right transverse sinus showed slow anterograde flow. 右横静脉窦显示顺行流速较慢。

In neuroscience, anterograde tracing is used to trace neural connections from their source (the cell body) to their point of termination (the synapse). 在神经科学中，顺行追踪是指从源头（细胞体）到终结（突触）追踪神经联系。

used to describe the fact that someone is unable to remember things that happen after a particular event

There is evidence to show that ECT can cause both retrograde (i.e. before treatment) and anterograde (i.e. after treatment) memory loss. 有证据表明ECT可造成逆行性（即治疗前）遗忘症和顺行性（即治疗后）遗忘症。
