A 60-year-old, right-handed woman experienced persistent impairment of calculating ability following a subcortical infarct involving the head of the left caudate nucleus, the anterior superior putamen, and the anterior limb of the internal capsule extending superiorly into the periventricular white matter.

Such conditions are associated with alterations in fronto-subcortical circuits, but their molecular basis is far from clear. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Using two-dimensional differential in-gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and mass spectrometr...
متن کاملA Brief Psychotic Episode with Depressive Symptoms in Silent Right Frontal Lobe Infarct

Acute psychosis or other neuropsychiatric symptoms including depression may present in stroke patients and patients with lesions either within the prefrontal or occipital cortices, or in subcortical areas such as the basal ganglia, thalamus, mid-brain, and brainstem. ...
متن کاملFrontal-Subcortical Dementias
Whereas Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common form of dementing illness, is typically characterized by initial deterioration within limbic and reticular structures (hippocampal/ entorhinal regions and basal forebrain cholinergic systems) with later involvement of the neocortex (particularly in temporal and parietal cortices), a second and diverse group of dementias do not initially present ...
