At follow-up at a mean age of 20.7 years (standard deviation = 3.9 years), 8 of the 11 (73%) were at least somewhat better. Ten of 11 cases (91%) had elevated ("positive") thyroperoxidase antibody titers compared to only 5 of 21 (23%) age-matched control subjects with Down syndrome (P <. The case we report here involves a woman whose symptoms were brought on by a. Diagnosis and treatment of this condition are challenging. Symptoms are brought on by touch, exertion, heat or cold, stress, neck movements and washing or brushing of hair. The mean age at which symptoms developed was 11.4 years (standard deviation = 3.6 years range 5-14 years), an older age than usual for autistic regression in Down syndrome. Introduction Red ear syndrome is a rare condition characterized by episodic attacks of erythema of the ear accompanied by burning ear pain. Ten of the 11 (91%) had cognitive decline to a dementia-like state and 9 of the 11 (82%) new-onset insomnia. Motor-sensory cortex: model and validation.Over a 10-year period in a Down syndrome Clinic, 11 children and adolescents were encountered with a history of new-onset (8) or worsening (3) autistic characteristics. The disease affects the area of the brain that processes information and brain structures that control movement. Kanazawa I (2001) Hemispheric lateralization Corticobasal degeneration, also called corticobasal syndrome, is a rare condition in which areas of your brain shrink and your nerve cells degenerate and die over time. KR (1999) Localization and characterization The affected eye may be more dilated or open than normal, and it will be very slow. Perisylvian cortex: a functional magnetic Adie syndrome is a rare neurological condition that causes symptoms in the eyes and the autonomic nervous system. (1999) Brain regions involved in articulation.
Stroke: lesion topography, clinicoradiologic Syndrome (pure anarthria): anatomo-clinical report of a historical Cortico-cortical fibers connecting face-M1 with the lower premotor areas including Broca's area may also be important for articulatory control. The cases suggest the existence of a localized brain region specialized for articulation near face-M1. Overlay of magnetic resonance images revealed a localized cortical region near face-M1, which displayed high intensity on diffusion weighted images, while the main portion of the corticobulbar fibers arising from the lower third of the motor cortex was preserved. The speech disturbance was limited to verbal output, without aphasia or orofacial apraxia. There was a mild deficit in tongue movements in the sagittal plane that impaired palatolingual contact and rapid tongue movements. Speech was slow, effortful, lacking normal prosody, and more affected than expected from the degree of facial or tongue palsy. Here we describe three cases of patients who developed severe dysarthria, temporarily mimicking speech arrest or aphemia, due to a localized brain lesion near the left face representation of the human primary motor cortex (face-M1). No clinical data have yet been presented to show that a lesion localized to the primary motor area (M1) can cause severe transient impairment of articulation, although a motor representation for articulation has been suggested to exist within M1.
