Pure motor stroke/hemiparesis (most common lacunar syndrome: 33–50%) posterior limb of the internal capsule , basilar part of pons , corona radiata It is marked by hemiparesis or hemiplegia that typically affects the face, arm, or leg of the side of the body opposite the location of the infarct.
Middle cerebral artery syndrome is a condition whereby the blood supply from the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is restricted, leading to a reduction of the function of the portions of the brain supplied by that vessel: the lateral aspects of frontal, temporal and parietal lobes, the corona radiata, globus pallidus, caudate and putamen.
The Copenhagen Stroke Study, which is a large important study published in 2001, showed that out of 618 stroke patients, manual apraxia was found in 7% and oral apraxia was found in 6%. [98] Both manual and oral apraxia were related to increasing severity of stroke. Oral apraxia was related with an increase in age at the time of the stroke.
Cerebral infarction, also known as an ischemic stroke, is the pathologic process that results in an area of necrotic tissue in the brain (cerebral infarct). [1] In mid to high income countries, a stroke is the main reason for disability among people and the 2nd cause of death. [2]
The most common cause of ideomotor apraxia is a unilateral ischemic lesion to the brain, which is damage to one hemisphere of the brain due to a disruption of the blood supply, as in a stroke. There are a variety of brain areas where lesions have been correlated to ideomotor apraxia.
Gerstmann syndrome is a neurological disorder that is characterized by a constellation of symptoms [1] that suggests the presence of a lesion usually near the junction of the temporal and parietal lobes at or near the angular gyrus. Gerstmann syndrome is typically associated with damage to the inferior parietal lobule of the dominant hemisphere ...
Neurological soft signs (NSS) are a group of minor non-focal neurological signs that include synkinesis. [3] Other soft signs including clumsiness, and loss of fine motor movement are also commonly found in schizophrenia. [4] NSS likely reflect impairments in sensory integration, motor coordination, and the carrying out of complex motor tasks. [3]
The precuneus is involved in memory tasks, such as when people look at images and try to respond based on what they have remembered in regard to verbal questions about their spatial details. [12] It is involved with the left prefrontal cortex in the recall of episodic memories [ 13 ] [ 14 ] including past episodes related to the self. [ 10 ]
