Acute Caudate Nucleus Stroke Presenting As Hemiballismus Patients may present with certain common clinical features corresponding to the affected area of the brain For example, infarctions of the motor cortex present with hemiplegia or paralysis of one side of the body
What Does A Nuclear Speckled ANA Pattern Mean? | Unraveling . . . A nuclear speckled ANA pattern is a specific result seen in antinuclear antibody testing It indicates the presence of autoantibodies that target proteins within the cell nucleus This pattern is characterized by a speckled appearance under a microscope, suggesting an immune response that may be linked to autoimmune disorders
Deciphering the Nucleus Ambiguus: Anatomy, Functions and . . . We will delve into the intricate neuroanatomy, the neural pathways, and the various clinical conditions that implicate the nucleus ambiguus, offering a holistic perspective on this enigmatic structure and its significance in the field of medicine and neuroscience
Disorders of the Brainstem and Cerebellum | SpringerLink Lateral medullary infarction (LMI) is the classic stroke syndrome that dramatically demonstrates the multiple clinical signs that develop when there is damage to many important tracts and nuclei in the lateral medulla (Fig 8 3)
Neuroanatomy, Nucleus Ambiguus - PubMed The nucleus ambiguus is the common nucleus of the efferent fibers for glossopharyngeal (CN IX) and vagus (CN X) nerves The name ‘ambiguus’ originates from its difficult-to-find location and variation in different species Its location is in the reticular formation in the medulla oblongata
Ambiguus Nucleus - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics The dorsal motor nucleus (DMNX), nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), and nucleus ambiguus (NA) are involved in regulating sympathetic outflow (via the NTS interfacing on the lateral horns of the spinal cord and CVLM) and parasympathetic outflow directly to the heart (via the vagus nerve)
