Transcallosal inhibition in patients with callosal infarction.
Recent studies in normal subjects suggested that callosal motor fibers pass through the posterior body of the corpus callosum (CC), but this has not been tested in patients with callosal infarction. The objective of this study is to define the pathways involved in transcallosal inhibition by examining patients with infarctions in different subregions of the CC. We hypothesized that patients wit...
متن کاملDevelopmental changes in line bisection: a result of callosal maturation?
Normal adults tend to bisect horizontal lines to the left of the objective middle, especially when using the left hand. This bias has been attributed to the dominance of the right hemisphere in spatial attention. The authors investigated the effect of hand use and line position in visual line bisection in right-handed children and adults, classified into 4 different age groups: 10-12, 13-15, 18...
متن کاملNeuroprotection and antiepileptogenesis
Current epilepsy treatment is focused on suppressing seizures and ameliorating secondary effects of seizures. Essentially, all available therapy is symptomatic. In most other areas of medicine, however, treatments are increasingly focused on preventing the development of the disease (e.g., vaccination), in curing the disease once it appears or, at least, preventing the progression of a disease ...
متن کاملNeuroprotection and antiepileptogenesis: overview, definitions, and context.
The stated goal of the community of physicians and scientists who treat and study epilepsy, as articulated at an NIH-sponsored consensus conference in 2000, is “no seizures, no side effects.” The conference report, however, makes clear that suppression of the symptoms of epilepsy, i.e., seizures per se, is not sufficient. Additional efforts must focus on preventing the development of epilepsy i...
متن کاملCallosal neglect.
BACKGROUND According to the interhemispheric inhibition model of neglect, the uninjured hemisphere inhibits (via the corpus callosum) the injured hemisphere but the injured hemisphere can no longer inhibit the opposite hemisphere, which becomes hyperactive and produces an ipsilesional attentional bias. Alternatively, according to the compensation hypothesis, the uninjured hemisphere helps compe...
