receptive fluent aphasia
lesion to the right speech cortex causes
expressive (nonfluent) aphasia
left occipital lesion causes
right homonymous hemianopsia
left parietal lesion causes
agraphia, acalculia, l r confusion, anosagnosia
right parietal lesion
disordered body orientation awareness/extrapersonal aprosopagnosia
what does mental status exam check
cerebral hem
what does cns exam check
brainstem
what does gait and stance check
cerebellum
what does sensory and motor and reflex test
spinal cord
what does diminished arousal imply as far as lesion location
brain stem or both cerebral hem

disease involving the mesial temporal lobes which can be damaged by toxic, metabolic or multifocal problem
isolated long term amnesia is always ___ in origin
psychiatric
how do you test someones attention level
spelling, counting forwards and backwards
what part of brain allows the function of insight
nondominant parietal lobe
supranuclear control of cn function is goverened by-?
contralateral cerebral hem
what part of brain would be activated in olfactory hallucinations
mesial tempora lobe
___= unilateral deficit in the retina or optic nerve
Afferent pupil defect
what eye movement is cn 4 in charge of
medial depression ( down and in)
what way do they eyes deviate in active seizure or volition
away from cortical activity
what way do the eyes deviate in a post ictal state or stroke
towards the cortical activity
where is the dysfunction in cojugate gaze palsy
cortical gaze center, coricobulbar tracts, always central in origin
where is the dysfunction in dysconjugate gaze
intranuclaar pathways,brainstem, cn III, IV , VI, can be central or peripheral in origin
what would a dysfunction of cn III look like
eyelid closed, lateral eye deviated laterally, pupil dilated
in a conscious pt a complete third nerve palsy is due to:
post communicating artery aneurysm until proven otherwise
could be temporal lobe herniation if not
what are four possible explanations for a dilated pupil
toxic, traumatic, adies pupil ( loses it parasymp innerv) or a third nerve palsy
what is the function of the abducens nerve
abducts the ipsilateral eye
what are some things on the differential for a cn VI nerve palsy
brainstem, stroke, or ms
subarachnoid space meningitis,
cavernous sinus thrombosis or metastic, meningeoma in the superior orbital fissure, dorelos canal, hypothyroidisme, myesthenia
what is the UMN of cn VII controlled by and what pathologic process can it be involved in
supranuclear control, involved in tumor, stroke or MS
what happens to eye closure when there is a central cn VII palsy
eye closure is maintained
what happens to eye closure when there is a peripheral CN VII palsy
can not close eye
rotruded tongue deviates toward __ __ or away from __ __
1. peripheral weakness
2. central weakness
where could a lesion of a UMN be
cerebrum, brainstem, SC above the lesions
where could a lesion of a LMN be
ant horn cell, root, periph nerve, NMJ, muscle
what roots are tested with DTR of biceps, brachiolradialis
C 5 and 6
what roots are tested with dtr of tricepts
c7 and c8
what roots are tested with the patella reflex
l3, l4
what roots are tested with achilles reflex
s1, and s2
what is it called when you diffusely diminish reflexes
generalized peripheral neuropathy
what could a thoracic myelopathy cause
hyperrflxia and babinski below that level
what 2 nerves are involved in babinski
s1 which then triggers the activation of L5

flexor carpi ulnaris, dorsal interossei
what muscle does the common fibular (peroneal N) innerv
tibialis anteriors
if you have foot drop what muscles are weak
flexors- you get a circumductive gait to compensate
what is the pattern of sensory loss when there is dysfunction of multiple peripheral nerves
stocking glove...hands and feet loss of sensory
what test are used for appendicular coordination
finger to nose and heel to shin. this test contraleral cerebellar hemispheres
