This facial nerve can be found at a point on the face just anterior to the ear and just below the cheekbones. What is a positive Chvostek’s sign? A patient will exhibit a positive Chvostek’s sign when twitching of the facial muscles occur in response to tapping over the area of the...
What is hypoxia ischemia? Is the occipital lobe on both sides of the brain? What is the role of the anterior pituitary gland? Is the hypothalamus in the frontal lobe? What separates the inferior portion of occipital lobe? What is atrophy of the cerebellum? What is another name for the ant...
Does myocardial ischemia cause troponin elevation? What does low bilirubin mean? What causes high chloride levels in the blood? What does low heart rate variability during stressor mean? What does increased cardiac output mean? What is the normal level of monocytes in blood?
Anterior bleeding usually arises in Little’s area (also known as Kisselbach’s plexus) along the anterior nasal septum. It is where the anastomosis of the anterior ethmoidal artery, posterior ethmoidal artery, sphenopalatine artery, greater palatine artery, and septal branch of the superior labi...
Like the Stroop, this task engages self-regulatory capacities that are based pri- marily in frontal, striatal, and anterior cingulate regions, dysfunction of which have been implicated in affective disorders. Results: Prelim- inary imaging data will be presented that include regional volumes of ...
possible pressure/flow dependency. Elevated serum glutamate is associated with early neurologic deterioration after acute ischemic stroke (18). Ohkuraet al. (19), using the same cerebral infarction model, demonstrated the attenuation of chronic ischemia of the infarct penumbra using pH-stat management ...
Finally, in addition to the prelimbic cortex, other subregions of the mPFC (e.g., anterior cingulate and orbital frontal cortex) have been implicated in stressor-induced reinstatement (Capriles et al., 2003). Characterization of how this interconnected network of cortical subregions responds to ...
The central canal is part of a system ofcerebrospinal fluid(CSF) cavities that includes the cerebral ventricle, aqueduct of Sylvius, and fourth ventricle (Figures 3-4) [2]. It is situated in the gray commissure, which (along with the anterior white commissure) connects the two parts...
(reaching 0.51 and 0.55, respectively). For this patient, the functional assessment agreed with the anatomical assessment. The Heart Teams decision were for CABG, based on the non-invasive assessment. CAD, coronary artery disease; CABG, coronary artery bypass grafting; LAD, left anterior descending...
The doctor said my anterior tibial nerve were lost. I can only slightly lift my foot. Does that mean my peroneal nerve was damaged but not severed? What muscles control the lifting of the foot? I can move my toes but cannot lift them up. Am i going to recover or is this foot drop...
