---|---|---|---|---|---|
The limbic system includes | areas that are important for emotional response, olfaction, learning and memory. Functionally, they regulate all visceral, endocrine and sensorimotor functions.
🗑
|
||||
the function of the CINGULATED GYRUS | emotional, somatic and autonomic functions
🗑
|
||||
the function of the HIPPOCAMPUS | storing and retrieving memories; learning
🗑
|
||||
the function of the BASAL NUCLEI | don’t initiate motor activity, but regulate cortically initiated motor activity, incl speech by suppressing competing movements for precise and target motor activity
🗑
|
||||
the function of the CAUDATE NUCLEUS | involved with motor function
🗑
|
||||
the function of the AMYGDALA | generally responsible for activating emotional behavior, related to limbic sys; aggression, mating, stress-mediated responses, memory, feeding and drinking
🗑
|
||||
the function of the SUBSTANTIA NIGRA | contains a group of nuclei that produce dopamine, inhibitory to caudate and putamen
🗑
|
||||
Parkinson’s disease | a degenerative lesion involving substantia nigra
🗑
|
||||
the primary function of the THALAMUS | integrates and relays all sensorimotor information to cerebral cortex, except olfaction
🗑
|
||||
Thalamic Syndrome | increased or decreased thresholds for the sensations of touch, pain and temperature on the contralateral side of the body
🗑
|
||||
the primary functions of the HYPOTHALAMUS | as the central regulator of the autonomic and endocrine functions, it controls visceral functions including: body temperature regulation, eating and drinking, etc
🗑
|
||||
clinical symptoms that commonly result from hypothalamic dysfunction | disturbances of food intake, water balance, libido (hubba hubba), menstruation, and temperature control
🗑
|
||||
the 3 primary divisions of the BRAINSTEM (mesencephalon) | midbrain, pons, medulla
🗑
|
||||
the function of the CEREBELLUM | important for equilibrium and the coordination of movement; acts as a comparator of motor output and sensory input to fine tune movement, important for locomotion, movement learning and balance
🗑
|
||||
the function of the PEDUNCLES | connect the cerebellum with the brainstem
🗑
|
||||
the function of the superior peduncle | transmits cerebellar outputs to the brainstem, then to the thalamus, motor cortex and spinal cord; mediates ongoing movements
🗑
|
||||
the function of the middle peduncle | relays ongoing sensorimotor information from opposite cerebral hemispheres
🗑
|
||||
the function of the inferior peduncle | mediates sensorimotor information from the spinal cord and brainstem, mediates vestibular information
🗑
|
||||
CEREBELLAR NUCLEI: dentate | limb coordination
🗑
|
||||
CEREBELLAR NUCLEI: interposed | regulates movements of ipsilateral extremities
🗑
|
||||
CEREBELLAR NUCLEI: fastigial | connected to vestibular system; maintains equilibrium and body posture
🗑
|
||||
the functional organization of the CEREBELLAR LOBE | ipsilateral organization
🗑
|
||||
CEREBELLAR LOBE: the function of the archicerebellum | balance
🗑
|
||||
CEREBELLAR LOBE: the function of the paleocerebellum | locomotion, muscle tone, equilibrium and posture
🗑
|
||||
CEREBELLAR LOBE: the function of the neocerebellum | limb and speech coordination
🗑
|
||||
general characteristics of cerebellar symptoms | an ipsilateral character to the signs, deficits related to motor functions with no sensory loss or paralysis, gradual recovery
🗑
|
||||
the results of damage to the cerebellum | patients cannot precisely control their body parts during movement even though they seem normal in regard to strength and somatosensation; most pronounced in activities that require rapid, alternating movements
🗑
|
||||
Cerebellar impairment: Ataxia | lack of order and coordination in sequential voluntary muscle activity
🗑
|
||||
Cerebellar impairment: Dysarthria | impaired ability to make needed modifications and alteration in ongoing oral-facial movement; produces a drastic effect on speech
🗑
|
||||
Cerebellar impairment:Dysmetria | an error in the judgment of a movement’s range or the distance to the target
🗑
|
||||
Cerebellar impairment: Hypotonia | normal muscle tension is decreased and the muscle becomes floppy
🗑
|
||||
Cerebellar impairment: Disequilibrium | predominantly affects the legs; marked by unsteady gait with the body wavering toward the side of the lesion
🗑
|
||||
PONS: Metencephalon | Location: between the midbrain and medulla; Function: contains all descending motor fibers and ascending sensory fibers
🗑
|
||||
MEDULLA OBLONGATA: Myelencephalon | Location: Most caudal part of the brainstem; Function: it contains all the motor fibers that descend to the spinal cord and all the sensory fibers that carry sensory information from the body to the more rostral brain areas
🗑
|
||||
DERMATOME | an area of skin that is supplied with the nerve fibers of a single, posterior, spinal root; 31 pairs of spinal nerves are formed by the merging of sensory and motor roots of the spinal cord
🗑
|
||||
ASCENDING CIRCUITS | sends sensory information from the body parts up to the brain
🗑
|
||||
DESCENDING CIRCUITS | sends motor information down to muscles; Decussation pattern: on their way to the spinal cord, the corticospinal fibers cross the midline at the causal end of the medulla to form the lateral corticospinal tract
🗑
|
||||
🗑
