Extrapyramidal motor pathway?
cerebellum
What are extrapyramidal symptoms?
Extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS)-- A group of side effects associated with antipsychotic medications. EPS include parkinsonism, akathisia, dystonia, and tardive dyskinesia.
What are the classifications of Machado-Joseph disease?
According to the affected brain area, MJD is classified as Type I, with extrapyramidal insufficiency; Type II, with cerebellar, pyramidal, and extrapyramidal insufficiency; and Type III, with cerebellar insufficiency.
What are the neurological symptoms in patients affected with LBD?
Neurological symptoms in patients affected with LBD include extrapyramidal features early in the disease. The extrapyramidal symptoms in LBD can be differentiated from other dementias such as Parkinson's disease
The reticulospinal extrapyramidal nerve tracts consist of fibers that originate in the?
reticular formation
What does the medical abbreviation EPS mean?
Most commonly, it stands for extrapyramidal symptoms.
For which one impulses that produce the smiles and frowns?
It is extrapyramidal,not pyramidal, impulses that produce the smiles or frowns.
What motor pathway is primarily concerned with automatic control of body parts for coordination?
Extrapyramidal pathway
An excessive or unrealistic apprehension that causes physical symptoms that lasts for six months or longer?
Extrapyramidal symptoms are a reason
What does extrapyramidal mean?
relating to or denoting nerves concerned with motor activity that descend from the cortex to the spine and are not part of the pyramidal system.
What is the difference between pyramidal and extrapyramidal system?
The Similarity: Pyramidal and extra-pyramidal system are the descending tracts (motor tracts) of spinal cord.The Difference:1) Their tracts -Pyramidal system = lateral and anterior corticospinal tracts + corticobulbar tractExtra-pyramidal system = rubrospinal + olivospinal + lateral and medial reticulospinal + tectospinal + vestibulospinal tracts2) "Extrapyramidal tracts" don't reach their targets by traveling through the "pyramids of medulla". Pyramidal tracts go through the pyramids of medulla.3) Pyramidal tracts may directly innervate motor neurons of spinal cord or brainstem (anterior horn cells or certain cranial nerve nuclei). But, extrapyramidal tractsindirectly control the anterior horn cells (for modulation and regulation)4) Pyramidal system is responsible for fine, isolated, precise and specific movements. Extrapyramidal system is responsible for gross, syngergic movements which require the activity of large groups of muscles
What does Machado-Joseph disease involve?
The disease involves the slow and progressive degeneration of brain areas involved in motor coordination, such as the cerebellar, extrapyramidal, pyramidal, and motor areas
