A Case of Anterograde Amnesia with Bilateral Hippocampus Involvement After Acute Glufosinate Ammonium Intoxication
Glufosinate ammonium is a commercial herbicide made from a phosphinic acid derivative of glutamate, which leads to a lethal accumulation of ammonia in plants by inhibiting the activity of glutamine synthetase (1). As the use of glufosinate-ammoniumcontaining herbicides has increased, so too has the incidence of acute intoxication through accidental or purposeful (attempted suicide) ingestion of...
متن کاملBilateral traumatic hemorrhage of the basal ganglia
Hemorrhage of the basal ganglia is common in hypertensive patients, and most of the cases are spon- taneous unilateral hemorrhage. Traumatic basal ganglia hemorrhage is uncommon, while bilateral hemorrhage of the basal ganglia after trauma is an extremely rare entity. This report described a rare case of bilateral hemorrhage of the basal ganglia after head trauma. We also analyzed the mechanism...

متن کاملMovement Disorders Following Cerebrovascular Lesion in the Basal Ganglia Circuit
Movement disorders are primarily associated with the basal ganglia and the thalamus; therefore, movement disorders are more frequently manifest after stroke compared with neurological injuries associated with other structures of the brain. Overall clinical features, such as types of movement disorder, the time of onset and prognosis, are similar with movement disorders after stroke in other str...
متن کاملBilateral basal ganglia activity in verbal working memory.
Although the cortical substrates of verbal working memory are reasonably well understood, less is known about the relative contribution of subcortical structures to verbal working memory. Therefore, in addition to elaboration of a model of verbal working memory by including a specific focus on basal ganglia, the purpose of this study also was to examine potential differences in neural function ...
