25
horizontal gaze final common pathway: | ipsilateral PPRF -> ipsilateral _ nucleus -> ipsilateral LR & interneurons in MLF to contralateral III and MR
abducens
26
PPRF:horizontal gaze::_:vertical gaze
rostral interstitial nucleus of MLF & interstitial nucleus of Cajal & pretectal area
27
_ portions mediate downgaze, and _ portions mediate upgaze
anterior; posterior
28
FEF and visual association areas project to vertical gaze centers via _
superior colliculus
29
from vertical gaze centers, signal travels _ to CN III and IV
bilaterally
30
visual system is _ during saccadic eye movement
suppressed
31
cortical areas (lobes) involved in saccades: _ _
parietal (visual association) and frontal (FEF)
32
reflexive saccades are _ guided in response to external visual cues
visually
33
volitional saccades are _ of visual stimulus and more complex
independent
34
looking away from something, saying "I'm not going to look"
antisaccades
35
look towards where you remember something was
memory saccades
36
baseball moves too fast, predict where its going to be
predictive saccades
37
the superior colliculus is a layered structure superficial layers receive input from _ deep layers have motor neurons that project to _ to initiate saccades
LGN | PPRF
38
3 saccadic neurons
pause, burst, tonic
39
pause neurons _ burst cells, engage saccade by _
constantly inhibit; releasing inhibition
40
burst cells produce _ and control _
brief pulse of innervation; velocity
41
burst cells are followed by tonic cells that provide _
constant step of innervation and holds it in place
42
_ cells control final position of eye
tonic cells
43
with saccades, agonist is _ antagonist is _
excitatory | inhibitory
44
combination of pulse and step results in smooth movements with saccades; normal saccade has a gain of _
0.92
45
typical latency of a saccade is _ ms, shorter if predicatble
180-200
46
hypometric saccade is when eye doesn't move far enough; _ is too low
pulse/burst
47
slow saccade occurs when _ takes a long time
pulse
48
gaze evoked saccade occurs when _ fizzle out
tonic
49
pursuits do not orient eyes toward a target, they _
keep the target on the fovea
50
smooth pursuits is integration of _ _ _ _ _
cortical information, cerebellar, vestibular, CN VI and III
51
smooth pursuit is only possible with _
slow moving objects
52
both sides of the cortex are active at the same time in order to _
keep objects centered on fovea
53
when you think smooth pursuit, contralateral or ipsilateral?
ipsilateral
54
2 phases of pursuits:
open loop - gets eye moving | closed loop - eye responds to alterations in retinal image produced by eye movements (adjusts velocity)
55
latency of pursuit initiation is _ ms
130 (much faster than saccade)
56
saccades are all about: _ | pursuits are all about: _
position | velocity
57
anterior canal moves eyes: _ posterior canal moves eyes: _ horizontal canal moves eyes: _
upward downward laterally
58
_ reflex adjusts head movements so that gaze can remain fixed on object even though head is moving
vestibuloocular reflex
59
nystagmus is named for direction of _
fast phase
60
vestibular nystagmus is activated by _
rotation of head -> VOR
61
optokinetic nystagmus is elicited by _
visual stimuli
62
following phone poles is an example of _
optokinetic nystagmus
63
caloric testing mneumonic is _
COWS (cold opposite, warm same)
