Cerebral Hemispheres01:05

Cerebral Hemispheres

2.5K
The human brain, a complex organ, is functionally divided into two cerebral hemispheres—left and right. These hemispheres are interconnected by a structure of paramount importance, the corpus callosum. This substantial bundle of neural fibers is not just a bridge between the hemispheres but a crucial element for the brain's comprehensive functioning. It enables efficient communication between the two hemispheres, allowing each side of the brain to control and receive sensory and motor...

Upper GI Series: Barium Swallow

1.8K
The Barium Swallow Study, or a Barium Esophagogram, is a diagnostic imaging method used to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and small intestine. It employs barium sulfate, a radiopaque contrast material, to provide clear images of the upper digestive system, helping to identify abnormalities, diseases, or structural issues.
Purpose and Procedure
Patients undergoing this procedure ingest a liquid containing barium sulfate with a chalky...

Lateralization01:28

Lateralization

1.1K
Brain lateralization refers to the division of mental processes and functions between the two hemispheres of the brain, a phenomenon that optimizes neural efficiency and underpins complex abilities in humans. This specialization allows each hemisphere to perform tasks where it has a comparative advantage, facilitating more refined cognitive capabilities across different domains.

Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

7.4K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Control System Problem01:21

Control System Problem

447
In an open-loop system, such as a basic thermostat, the poles of the transfer function influence the system's response but do not determine its stability. However, when feedback is introduced to form a closed-loop system, such as an advanced thermostat that adjusts heating based on room temperature, stability is governed by the new poles of the closed-loop transfer function.
When forming a closed-loop system, issues can arise if the poles cross into the unstable region, leading to potential...

Combinatorial Gene Control02:33

Combinatorial Gene Control

9.7K
Combinatorial gene control is the synergistic action of several transcriptional factors to regulate the expression of a single gene. The absence of one or more of these factors may lead to a significant difference in the level of gene expression or repression.
The expression of more than 30,000 genes is controlled by approximately 2000-3000 transcription factors. This is possible because a single transcription factor can recognize more than one regulatory sequence. The specificity in gene...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Physiology

Background:

  • The brainstem is known to regulate swallowing.
  • The specific role of the cerebral cortex in swallowing control remains unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate if cerebral hemispheric laterality influences swallow activity.
  • To explore the cortical control of swallowing.

Main Methods:

  • Thirty healthy, right-handed participants performed a timed water swallow test.
  • A dual-task paradigm involved simultaneous swallowing and auditory stimuli (speech or music).
  • Swallowing time and hyolaryngeal movement were measured to calculate performance parameters.

Main Results:

  • Swallowing performance decreased under the dual-task paradigm compared to baseline.
  • Speech stimuli significantly impacted volume-related swallowing parameters (volume/swallow, volume/time).
  • Music stimuli showed greater interference with time-related swallowing parameters (time/swallow).

Conclusions:

  • Results suggest the cerebral cortex plays a role in swallowing, particularly under dual-task conditions.
  • Evidence supports a differential cue lateralization hypothesis for swallowing.
  • The left hemisphere may control volume parameters, while the right hemisphere controls time parameters in swallowing.
