Understanding the intricate anatomy and physiology of the brain and nervous system is crucial for psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) to effectively assess, diagnose, and treat various mental health disorders. This knowledge facilitates insight into the underlying mechanisms of conditions...
This chapter contains some basic background on the anatomy and physiology of the human brain relevant to this project. The final section focuses on the neonatal brain and some common pathologies.2.1 Anatomy of the head The human nervous system consists of the central nervous system (CNS) and ...
Many questions about perivascular spaces remain, but what is now clear is that normal perivascular space function is important for maintaining brain health. Here, we review perivascular space anatomy, physiology and pathology, particularly as seen with MRI in humans, and consider translation from ...
Finally, the midbrain forms the most superior and most complex region of the brain stem. Physiology The brain stem, through its gray matter, provides many of the basic survival and reflex functions for the body. Through its white matter, the brain stem forms the connections between the brain...
the reverse of what happens with the alveolus in the lung.Loaded up with carbon dioxide, the blood turns that dark red color again (shown as blue)and starts the return journey to the heart by going into small venules and then larger veins.Now, the lower half of the body drains into ...

Perivascular spaces include a variety of passageways around arterioles, capillaries and venules in the brain, along which a range of substances can move. Although perivascular spaces were first identified over 150 years ago, they have come to prominence
Discoveries over the past two decades demonstrate that regions distributed throughout the association cortex, often called the default network, are suppressed during tasks that demand external attention and are active during remembering, envisioning the
In discussing psychosomatic disease it is necessary to consider the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. This is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord, and can be thought of as the part ...
ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY OF THE NEURON How does the human body facilitate communication between nearly 100 trillion cells ? The Neuron Doctrine Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1887): Neurons are the functional unit of the nervous system Neurons are discrete, metabolic units Neurons are electrochemically excitable...
