Surgical treatment of supplementary motor area lesions.
Different portions of the SMA appear to be engaged by different types of neurological functions. It is important to identify the functional activation of SMA in terms of planning the surgical strategy. Our unpublished data from M.D. Anderson suggest that resection of the site of SMA activation based on fMRI is an important parameter for predicting the postoperative neurological deficit. Also, p...
متن کاملNonspatial and subdivision-specific working memory deficits after selective lesions of the avian prefrontal cortex.
Association areas in the avian forebrain are shown to subserve higher cognitive functions, including working memory. One of these areas, the neostriatum caudolaterale (NCL) of pigeons, has been functionally compared with the mammalian prefrontal cortex (PFC) because of its prominent role in spatial delay and reversal tasks and its innervation by the dopaminergic system that modulates these func...
متن کاملWorking Memory Deficits and its Relationship to Autism Spectrum Disorders
Background: There is a wealth of research done in developed countries on the investigation of the working memory (WM) performance in people with high-functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) (IQ>70), with different reported findings. There is a dearth of similar studies in developing countries. In addition, the findings suggest that WM is possibly influenced by culture. The present study inv...
متن کاملGait apraxia after bilateral supplementary motor area lesion.
OBJECTIVES The study aimed at addressing the issue of the precise nature of gait apraxia and the cerebral dysfunction responsible for it. METHODS The case of a patient, affected by a bilateral infarction limited to a portion of the anterior cerebral artery territory is reported. The patient's ability to walk was formally assessed by means of a new standardised test. RESULTS Due to an anomal...
متن کاملLong-term working memory deficits after concussion: electrophysiological evidence.
BACKGROUND Persistent complaints of lingering memory and concentration difficulties are common following a concussion, although the brain basis of these is unknown. Some suggest abnormalities can be found on the P300 event-related potential component, recorded using electroencephalography (EEG), despite unobservable cognitive impairments. OBJECTIVE To examine the P300 and cognitive performanc...
