Abnormalities of the Oculomotor Nerve in Congenital Fibrosis of the Extraocular Muscles and Congenital Oculomotor Palsy [PDF]
High-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can now directly demonstrate innervation to extraocular muscles and quantify optic nerve size. A quantitative MRI technique was developed to study the oculomotor nerve (CN3) and applied to congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles (CFEOM) and congenital oculomotor palsy.The subarachnoid portions of the ...

Chronic oculomotor nerve palsy secondary to a sphenoid–cavernous sinus lesion in an adolescent: a case report and literature review [PDF]
Background Oculomotor nerve (cranial nerve III) palsy in children and adolescents is uncommon and typically suggests an underlying structural lesion rather than microvascular ischemia.

Does Stimulation of Plantar Mechanoreceptors Alter Visual Spatial Localization? [PDF]
Objectives: Few studies have previously shown an interaction between feet and gaze in postural control. The aim of the current study is to more specifically examine how vertical heterophoria (VH) varies with stimulation of the mechanoreceptors in the ...

Imaging Findings in Neurogenic Ptosis [PDF]
Neurogenic ptosis refers to upper eyelid drooping resulting from disrupted innervation of the eyelid retractor muscles. The differential diagnoses of neurogenic ptosis include oculomotor nerve palsy, Horner’s syndrome, and neuromuscular junction ...

Parallel cholinergic circuit in oculomotor nucleus to control eye movements and REM sleep [PDF]
Sleep suppresses most motor output, yet rapid eye movement sleep (REMs) is marked by brief muscle twitches, including eye movements (EMs), indicating selective motor preservation. How these opposing features are coordinated remains unclear.

Delineation of motoneuron subgroups supplying individual eye muscles in the human oculomotor nucleus
The oculomotor nucleus (nIII) contains the motoneurons of medial, inferior and superior recti (MR, IR, SR), inferior oblique (IO) and levator palpebrae (LP) muscles. The delineation of motoneuron subgroups for each muscle is well-known in monkey, but not
