The Cerebellum and Psychiatric Disorders
The cerebellum has been considered for a long time to play a role solely in motor coordination. However, studies over the past two decades have shown that the cerebellum also plays a key role in many motor, cognitive, and emotional processes. In addition, studies have also shown that the cerebellum is implicated in many psychiatric disorders including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, a...
متن کاملIs the cerebellum relevant in the circuitry of neuropsychiatric disorders?
Contemporary mechanistic models of several psychiatric disorders propose abnormalities in the structure and function of distinct neural networks. The cerebellum has both anatomic and functional connections to the prefrontal cortex, the subcortical limbic structures and monoamine-producing brainstem nuclei. Conspicuously, however, the cerebellum has been underemphasized in neuropsychiatric resea...
متن کاملoculAr Motor disorders of the cerebelluM And VestibulAr systeM
InTRoDUCTIon Here we present a bedside approach to patients with vestibular and cerebellar disease emphasizing clinical examination based on pathophysiology. The differentiation between peripheral and central vestibular disorders and precise anatomical localization within the cerebellum are emphasized. A number of specific manoeuvres are illustrated and evaluation of each of the different subcl...
متن کاملAutism spectrum disorders and neuropathology of the cerebellum
The cerebellum contains the largest number of neurons and synapses of any structure in the central nervous system. The concept that the cerebellum is solely involved in fine motor function has become outdated; substantial evidence has accumulated linking the cerebellum with higher cognitive functions including language. Cerebellar deficits have been implicated in autism for more than two decade...
متن کاملEffects of Thimerosal on Cerebellum Tissue and Neurodevelopmental Disorders Related Behaviors in Rats
Background: Thimerosal (THIM) is one of the most important and inexpensive preservatives in many pharmaceutical and health products. The current knowledge on the impact of this substance on fetal neurodevelopment and incidence of behavioral and tissue defects is very controversial. Here we investigated neonatal administration of THIM on behaviors and cerebellar tissue, which are important in...
