The cerebrum, especially the cerebral cortex, has long been thought to be the important part of our brain. However, the cerbrum contains less than 20 percent of the neurons in our brain. Eighty ...

The cerebellum (Latin: little brain) is located beneath the cerebrum (Latin: brain). Cerebellar means "relating to the cerebellum." There are two cerebral hemispheres called "left brain-right ...

Fetuses more exposed to certain air pollutants show changes in the size of specific brain structures, particularly during the ...

located in each brain hemisphere, as well as an enlargement of the cisterna magna, a cavity located at the lower part of the brain. An increase in the width of the cerebellar vermis —the central part ...

Notably, posterior vermis hypoplasia is a very common feature of most human cerebellar malformations including Dandy-Walker malformation (27). Our dreher mutant mouse data raise the possibility that ...

Siblings showed decreased functional connectivity (compared to control subjects) between the anterior cerebellar vermis and the triangular part of the left inferior frontal gyrus (Fc = −0.08, p = ...

Figure 1. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), MR angiography (MRA), and 3D-CTA. A, MRI demonstrates a small high-signal area in the right cerebellar hemisphere (white arrowheads) on both T2-weighted ...

Cerebellar foliations and vermis fissures are formed as of the fifth month of gestation, the primary fissure of the vermis being identified in 100% of cases only after week 24 of gestation (6).

Background Crossed cerebellar diaschisis is the unilateral depression in functional activity of the cerebel- lar hemisphere, caused by a controlateral supratentorial lesion. The phenomenon arises from ...

Furthermore, the concentration of GAD autoantibodies were markedly high and were compatible with autoimmune cerebellar ataxia as defined by Saiz et al. 3 Immunohistochemical studies using CSF and ...
