- Thalamus
- Sensory pathways (except olfactory)
- Speech Production
- Left frontal lobe/frontal cortex of Left hemisphere/Broca's area
- Sympathetic Nervous System
- anxious & increased heart rate
- Dopamine
- Amphetamines increase. Incraesed = Schizophrenia, Tourette's. Decreased = depression, Parkinson's.
- Nystagmus
- Involuntary jerky eye movement.
- Acetylcholine (ACh)
- Decreased = Alzheimer's Dementia. Most directly involved w/voluntary muscle movement. Related to sleep cycle.
- Sleep/Wake Cycle
- Regulated by the reticular formation.
- Extrapyramidal Motor System
-
- Substantia Nigra
- Cerebellum
- Basal Ganglia - ADHD
- Frontal Lobe & Prefrontal
- Limbic System
- - Hippocampus (memory)
- Reticular Activation System (RAS)
- "REM" - controls sleep & arousal & attn
- Conduction Aphasia
- Affects connection b. Wernicke's area & Broca's area.
- Seizures (ictal)
-
Due to abnormal electrical activity.
Partial (simple vs complex) or Generalized. - Generalized Seizures
-
Bilateral. Not focal.
Grand vs Petit
Tonic-clonic vs Absence (no motor movement, blank stare) - Migraines
-
Throbbing, exacerbated by lifting or bending over.
Classic (includes aura) or Common. - Social Phobia
- Dopamine & serotonin.
- Implicit Memory
- Basal Ganglia. Cerebellum. Ventral Thalamus.
- Explicit memory
- Mamillary bodies. Medial Thalamus.
- Parietal Lobe
- Somatosensory Cortex. Cutaneous sensation (touch, temp, pain).
- ACh -- Side Effects
-
Anticholinergic effects:
dry mouth
blurred vision
hypotension
tachycardia
sedation - Beta Blockers -- Side Effects
-
fatigue
sexual dysfunction
bradycardia - Norepinephrine
- Decreased amount = depression. Tricyclics increase amount.
