Abstract Objective Exploring the prevalence and association between intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS) and cerebral small vessel diseases (CSVD), this study delved beyond the current scope, utilising high‐resolution vessel wall MRI (HRVW‐MRI) to investigate how subtle changes in intracranial atherosclerotic features influence the various burdens of ...

Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy: Distinctive MRI Changes in Cerebellar and Motor Networks
ABSTRACT Objective Progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME) is a rare generalized epilepsy syndrome with a well‐characterized genetic basis. The brain networks that are affected to give rise to the distinctive symptoms of PME are less well understood. Methods Eleven individuals with PME with a confirmed genetic diagnosis and 22 controls were studied.

The correlation between lateralization of intracerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia and handedness [PDF]
PURPOSE: To investigate the correlation between lateralization of cerebral basal ganglia hemorrhage and handedness. METHODS: Medical records and computed tomography (CT) scans for 84 patients with primary hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in ...

The external pallidum: think locally, act globally [PDF]
The globus pallidus (GPe) of the basal ganglia has been underappreciated for decades due to poor understanding of its cells and circuits. The advent of molecular tools has sparked a resurgence in interest in the GPe. Here, we review a recent flurry of publications that has unveiled the complexity of the molecular landscape and cellular composition ...

Early Language Impairment as an Integral Part of the Cognitive Phenotype in Huntington's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Huntington's disease (HD) speech/language disorders have typically been attributed to motor and executive impairment due to striatal dysfunction. In‐depth study of linguistic skills and the role of extrastriatal structures in HD is scarce.

Dopamine replacement therapy for Parkinson’s disease can induce impulsive-compulsive behaviours (ICBs). Here we compare the D2/3 agonist ropinirole and L-DOPA, given alone or combined, with regard to their potential to induce ICBs in rats sustaining ...

The causal interaction in human basal ganglia
The experimental study of the human brain has important restrictions, particularly in the case of basal ganglia, subcortical centers whose activity can be recorded with fMRI methods but cannot be directly modified.

Bidirectional Control of Absence Seizures by the Basal Ganglia: A Computational Evidence [PDF]
Absence epilepsy is believed to be associated with the abnormal interactions between the cerebral cortex and thalamus. Besides the direct coupling, anatomical evidence indicates that the cerebral cortex and thalamus also communicate indirectly through an important intermediate bridge--basal ganglia.

How Laminar Frontal Cortex and Basal Ganglia Circuits Interact to Control Planned and Reactive Saccades [PDF]
The basal ganglia and frontal cortex together allow animals to learn adaptive responses that acquire rewards when prepotent reflexive responses are insufficient.
