16
Q

what does a lesion to spinocerebellum result in if it involves the limb component

A

Ipsilateral tremor, dysmetria, movement “decompostion”, fail heel/shin test

17
Q

what does a lesion to cerebrocerebellum result in

A

movement errors, dysdiadochokinesis, initiation delays, decomposition (unable to flex on finger without other)

18
Q

what does cerebellar disease involve

A
Ataxia
Dysarthria
Movement delays
Tremors during voluntary movement and not during rest
Symptoms are ipsilateral to lesion
19
Q

what does ataxia involve for cerebellar disease

A
  • wide base stance and unsteady gait
  • trunk tremors
  • poor balance
  • Movement decomposition
20
Q

true or false

Input/output to/from cortex is not crossed

A

false, they are crossed

21
Q

true or false

input/output to/from spinal cord is crossed

A

false, they are not crossed

22
Q

what is Huntingtons disease

A

degeneration of Striatal neurons ( Caudate and Putament)

23
Q

what are the symptoms for Pakinsons disease

A

general reduction in movement, bradykinesia, difficulty initiating movements, micrographic, general reduction in movement quantity and amplitude

24
Q

what are the symptoms for Huntingtons disease

A

involuntary movements, chorea (abrupt and violent movements of limbs and face)

25
what is a lesion to the sub thalamus called and what are the symptoms
hemiballismus | symptoms include involuntary violent movements
26
what does Athetosis result in
slow "writihing" movements of the limbs
27
list the different types of basal ganglia diseases
Parkinson's Huntingtons Chorea lesion to Subthalamus Athetosis
28
how can Parkinsons disease be treated
Administration of L-Dopa and Dopaminergic Drugs or surgery (partial pallidotomy)
29
what does the output of basal ganglia regulate
movement initiation, movement speed, movement amplitude
30
true or false | All output for Basal Ganglia is inhibitory
true
