  2. Alcohol-related brain damage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol-related_brain_damage

    Frontal lobe damage becomes the most prominent as alcoholics age and can lead to impaired neuropsychological performance in areas such as problem solving, good judgment, and goal-directed behaviors. [3] Impaired emotional processing results from damage to the limbic system.

  3. Anosognosia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anosognosia

    Anosognosia is a condition in which a person with a disability is cognitively unaware of having it due to an underlying physical condition. Anosognosia results from physiological damage to brain structures, typically to the parietal lobe or a diffuse lesion on the fronto-temporal-parietal area in the right hemisphere, [1] [2] [3] and is thus a neuropsychiatric disorder.

  4. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_reversible...

    The treatment for PRES is supportive: removal of the cause or causes and treatment of any of the complications, such as anticonvulsants for seizures. PRES may be complicated by intracranial hemorrhage, but this is relatively rare. The majority of people recover fully, although some may experience some residual symptoms.

  5. Gerstmann syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerstmann_syndrome

    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 ...

  6. Biology of depression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biology_of_depression

    The biology of depression is the attempt to identify a biochemical origin of depression, as opposed to theories that emphasize psychological or situational causes. Scientific studies have found that different brain areas show altered activity in humans with major depressive disorder (MDD) . [ 1 ]

  7. Posterior cortical atrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_cortical_atrophy

    In the two-streams hypothesis, damage to the ventral, or "what" stream, of the visual system, located in the temporal lobe, leads to the symptoms related to general vision and object recognition deficits; damage to the dorsal, or "where/how" stream, located in the parietal lobe, leads to PCA symptoms related to impaired movements in response to ...

  8. Emotional lateralization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_lateralization

    Emotional lateralization may also play a role in psychological disorders such as depression and schizophrenia. Future treatment of psychological disorders may have more targeted neurological treatments rather than ingested drugs. Symptoms that arise from confined regions of damage usually have stereotypical emotional and behavioral changes.

  9. Hemispatial neglect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemispatial_neglect

    Brain areas in the parietal and frontal lobes are associated with the deployment of attention (internally, or through eye movements, head turns or limb reaches) into contralateral space. Neglect is most closely related to damage to the temporo-parietal junction and posterior parietal cortex. [7]
