The primary injury consists of either partial or complete dissection of nerve bundles, damage to neuronal cell bodies, or blunt force that contuses or compresses the brain or spinal cord. An example of the forme
III Gray Matter Brain tissue can be broadly categorized as gray matter, white matter, or cerebrovascular fluid. These different tissue types are discriminated by MRI and define the anatomical boundaries of most brain structures. Gray matter generally consists of cell bodies and white matter of myeli...
a reliable indicator of L2 acquisition, referring to the point at which initial exposure to L2 occurred61. Since the brain is remarkably malleable during early years of life, it has been suggested that early experience with a second language significantly shapes the organization and functioning of ...
We hypothesize that TPH2 rs7305115 and childhood trauma interact not only in the context of behaviour but also regarding brain structure (gray matter volume); moreover, TPH2 rs7305115 and childhood trauma may interact in behaviour through brain gray matter volume. The present study will contribute...
In addition, the gray matter volume of several areas in the prefrontal and parietal areas in childhood shows positive correlations with math skills 6 years later7. Another study revealed that spatial cognitive ability, independent of general intelligence, is associated with larger rGMV in the ...
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a lifelong condition that profoundly impacts health, independence, and quality of life. However, research on brain aging in autistic adults is limited, and microstructural variations in white and gray matter remain poorl
White and Gray Matter in the CNS:White matter makes up the interior of the brain, while gray matter makes up the brain surface (cortex). The spinal cord is arranged in an inverted fashion with the white matter making up the outside layer and the ...
The white matter largely consists of myelinated neurons. a. True b. FalseThe reticular formation is a web of ___ scattered throughout the ___. A. nerves; white matter in the cerebrum B. white matter; cerebellum C. gray matter; br...
The white matter consists mostly of longitudinally running axons and also glial cells that surround the gray matter except for the region where the dorsal horn touches the margin of the spinal cord. The horns of the gray matter divide the white matter into three columns (funiculi): dorsal, lat...
of the intrinsic (intramedullary veins), extrinsic (cord surface), extradural (epidural plexus) and external system (the structures outside the epidural space). The venous drainage within the cord (intrinsic system, seeFig. 1) consists of radially orientedperipheral veins, which mostly start in ...
