What are Stem Cells?
Stem cells are undifferentiated self regenerating multi potential cells. There are three types of stem cells categories by the ability to form after cells and correlated with the body’s development process. Totipotent: these stem cells can form an entire organism such as fertilized egg. Ploripotent: ploripotent cells are those that can form any cell in the body but cannot form an entire organ...
متن کاملVisual imagery in hemianopic patients.
In this article we report some findings about visual imagery in patients with stable homonymous hemianopia compared to healthy control subjects. These findings were obtained by analyzing the gaze control through recording of eye movements in different phases of viewing and imagery. We used six different visual stimuli for the consecutive viewing and imagery phases. With infrared oculography, we...
متن کاملAre patients with Parkinson’s disease blind to blindsight?
In Parkinson's disease, visual dysfunction is prominent. Visual hallucinations can be a major hallmark of late stage disease, but numerous visual deficits also occur in early stage Parkinson's disease. Specific retinopathy, deficits in the primary visual pathway and the secondary ventral and dorsal pathways, as well as dysfunction of the attention pathways have all been posited as causes of hal...
متن کاملDynamics of cortical activation in a hemianopic patient.
Although residual vision in patients with cortical blindness is common, its brain mechanisms are poorly known. To study these mechanisms we measured neuromagnetic responses to visual stimuli in a patient with right posterior cerebral lesion and left visual field hemianopia. His vision had partially recovered with intensive training before our measurements. Compared with the processing in the he...
