The Neuro-Behavioural Syndrome of Brainstem Disease

A structural connectivity atlas of limbic brainstem nuclei

“…Overall, our connectivity analysis of these five brainstem nuclei supports the role of the brainstem in emotional processing and confirmed our hypothesis that these brainstem nuclei demonstrate structural connectivity with known limbic regions. There is strong evidence that most mammals have analogous experiences to human emotion, even with far less evolved higher cortical centers, indicating that important processing occurs at levels below the cortex (Craig, 2003 ; Omar et al, 2008 ; Angeles Fernández-Gil et al, 2010 ; Holstege, 2016 ; Venkatraman et al, 2017 ). In order to further understand the basis of emotion and reward, and intervene in cases of disorders of emotion and reward processing, it is critical to understand phylogenetically older structures such as the brainstem and recognize them as critical factors in emotional processing.…”

Plasma Neurofilament Light Chain Is Associated with Cognitive Impairment after Posterior Circulation Stroke

“…The cerebellum was involved in cognitive and emotional control [ 21 ]. Brain stem lesions mainly showed executive function and attention disorders [ 22 , 23 ], thalamic lesions could result in a variety of cognitive problems [ 24 ]. Patients with isolated occipital stroke had cognitive impairment.…”

Disfunção Cognitiva em Acidente Vascular Cerebral Isolado do Tronco Cerebral

“…3 Também tem sido sugerido que a diaschisis que afeta as áreas corticais e límbicas após lesão do tronco cerebral poderá alterar a sua função neurotransmissor. 7,9 Consideramos ainda importante as características sociodemográficas deste doente, dado que certos autores salientam que grupos populacionais minoritários de diferentes etnias podem ser mais difíceis de identificar e estudar pela existência de determinadas barreiras, tais como: desconfiança e falta de confidencialidade; insegurança; acesso precário a assistência médica; pouco conhecimento por menor acesso à informação; dificuldades com a língua oral ou escrita e diferenças culturais. 10,11 Dado que podem ser alvo de reabilitação neuropsicológica, importa atentar e identificar as consequências cognitivas e afetivas dos AVC do tronco cerebral.…”
