Study Notes
Memory Conversion
- Consolidation is the process of converting short-term memory to long-term memory with the hippocampus.
Drug Action
- Cevimeline is potentially used to treat cognitive problems in patients with dementia, including agitation and other neurological symptoms.
- Atropine is used to treat supraventricular tachycardia.
Motion Sickness
- Prophylaxis for motion sickness can be achieved using Benzatropine.
Muscular Dystrophy
- Muscular dystrophies are more likely inherited rather than acquired.
Cerebral Spinal Fluid
- Cerebral spinal fluid passes to the subarachnoid space through arachnoid villi.
Proprioception
- The cuneate nucleus receives input of proprioception from the upper limb.
Medulla Decussation
- The lateral corticospinal tract decussates in the pyramid of the medulla.
Parkinson's Disease
- Degenerated changes in the substantia nigra of the midbrain confirm the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.
Middle Peduncle
- The cortico-ponto-cerebellar tract passes through the middle peduncle.
Brain Structures
- The thalamus is located in the diencephalon.
- The lateral corticospinal tract passes through the pyramid in the anterior medulla.
Spinal Cord Injuries
- A fracture in the 9th vertebrae corresponds to the thoracic segment of the spine.
