Impaired prehension is associated with lesions of the superior and inferior hand representation within the human cerebellum.
Impairment of patients with cerebellar disease in prehension is well recognized. So far specific localizations within the human cerebellum associated with the impairment have rarely been assessed. To address this question we performed voxel-based lesion symptom mapping (VLSM) in patients with chronic focal cerebellar lesions in relation to specific deficits in prehensile movements. Patients wit...
متن کاملTiming of conditioned eyeblink responses is impaired in cerebellar patients.
In the present study, timing of conditioned eyeblink responses (CRs) was investigated in cerebellar patients and age-matched controls using a standard delay paradigm. Findings were compared with previously published data of CR incidences in the same patient population (Gerwig et al., 2003; Timmann et al., 2005). Sixteen patients with pure cortical cerebellar degeneration (spinocerebellar ataxia...
متن کاملSurgical management of Ossifying Fibroma of the mandible with inferior alveolar nerve involvement
Background and Aim: Ossifying fibroma (OF) is a benign fibro-osseous lesion, which is usually diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40 years. The female to male ratio is 5:1, with affinity for posterior mandibular region. The aim of the present report is to discuss a case of OF and its clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics and the related surgical approach. Case presentation...
متن کاملMotor cortex excitability after cerebellar infarction.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The cerebellum has an influence on motor excitability. We investigated if the location of a cerebellar infarction was crucial for changes of motor cortex excitability and if the electrophysiological findings were correlated with motor performance. METHODS Transcranial magnetic stimulation was applied to study intracortical inhibition (ICI), intracortical facilitation (I...
متن کاملReduced Timing Variability in Patients with Unilateral Cerebellar Lesions during Bhnanual Movements
Timing variability on a repetitive tapping task was studied in subjects with unilateral cerebellar lesions. During unimanual tapping, within-hand variability was larger when tapping with the ipsilesional hand in comparison to tapping with the contralesional hand. However, variability in the impaired hand was greatly reduced when subjects tapped with two hands together. The improvement in within...
