neuro1 Flashcards
hemorraghic inflammation of temporal lobes causes
elevated erytrhocytes in CSF
elevated protein , normal cell count
albuminocytological dissociation
GBS
increased potein increase erytrhocytes
Traumatic tap
binds to na channel keeping it open and causing persistent d epolarization
ciguatoxin, batrachotoxin
binds to na channels inhibitng na influx and preventing action potential conduction
tetrodotoxin, saxitoxin
quadriparesis; long standing RA
endotracheal intubation worsens subluxation caused by RA; compression of spinal cord
increased muscle rigidity w rhythmic interruptions
cogwheepl rigidity
cardiac embolism stroke vs hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy
cardiac embolism storke would cause multiple infarcts within different major vascular territories
cannot do tandem walk
cerebellar dysfunction
R LGN impairment
contralateral homonymous heminaopsia
damage to supperior colliculs syptosm
upward gaze plasy
absent pupillary light reflex
impaired convergence
parinaud syndroem
beta pleated sheet resistant to proteasese
prion disease
microglial nodules and multinucleated giant cells
hiv assoc encephalotapthy
intranuclear inclusinos within oligoodendcoyrtes
PML
clasp knife spasticity
initial ressitance to passive extesnion followed by sudden release of resistance; seen in UMN lesion
what type of stroke caues clasp knife spatisicty
internal capsule stroke
extracellular fibrillar protein accumulation
amyloid
intracellular edema caused by impaired function of atp dependent sodium ptoassium pumps on neuroenal cell membarnaes
cytoxic edema
extraceullar edema caused by increased vascular permeability due to effects of pro inflammatory cytokines
vasogenic edema
spinal accessory nerve is a pure
motor fiber
motor nerve that passes thorugh posterior triangel of neck to innervate
SCM and trapezius
elevate scapula, rotate upward, stablizie shoulder
impaired abudciton of arm above horizontal
trapezius
drooping of shoulder
weakness of trapezius muscle
cerebellar hemisphers control ___extremities
ipsilateral
dysdiadochokinesia, limb dysmetria, and intention tremor
dys: impaired rapid alternagtive movements;
infraorbiatl nerve is a continuation of
maxillary nerve
runs along orbital surface of maxilla
ipsilaraterla down and out
ipsilateral posteri communicating artery
