Micrographia
In three more years Micrographia will celebrate its 300th birthday, and while a desire for neatness might have urged Dover to postpone the publication of this facsimile edition until the tricentennial, our sheer, informal delight in the book should cause us to rejoice at these few extra years of reading pleasure. To devote to Micrographia a standard review would be similar to an argument as to ...
متن کاملMidbrain tegmental lesions affecting or sparing the pupillary fibres.
Two patients with oculomotor palsy caused by midbrain infarction are reported. In the first, pupillary reaction was affected and in the second this reaction was spared. Because the lesions in the anterior part of the tegmentum were in the upper midbrain in the first patient and in the lower midbrain in the second, it is suggested that the pupillary components of the oculomotor nerve are located...
متن کاملDivergence paralysis caused by acute midbrain infarction.
A 41-year-old woman with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and dyslipidemia abruptly developed vertigo, truncal ataxia and divergence paralysis. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the presence of infarction in the left superior paramedian mesencephalic artery involving the vicinity of the periaqueductal gray matter. The symptoms rapidly resolved under the administration of anti-p...
متن کاملFunctional Plasticity after Unilateral Vestibular Midbrain Infarction in Human Positron Emission Tomography
The aim of the study was to uncover mechanisms of central compensation of vestibular function at brainstem, cerebellar, and cortical levels in patients with acute unilateral midbrain infarctions presenting with an acute vestibular tone imbalance. Eight out of 17 patients with unilateral midbrain infarctions were selected on the basis of signs of a vestibular tone imbalance, e.g., graviceptive (...
متن کاملPedunculopontine tegmental nucleus neurons provide reward, sensorimotor, and alerting signals to midbrain dopamine neurons.
Dopamine (DA) neurons in the midbrain are crucial for motivational control of behavior. However, recent studies suggest that signals transmitted by DA neurons are heterogeneous. This may reflect a wide range of inputs to DA neurons, but which signals are provided by which brain areas is still unclear. Here we focused on the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPTg) in macaque monkeys and charac...
