Journal ArticleDOI

Affective communication deficits associated with cerebellar degeneration

TL;DR: A patient with idiopathic cerebellar degeneration with impaired family relationships attributed to an “emotional disconnection” was examined, revealing ataxia, dysmetria, and adiadochokinesia more severe on the left and frontal-executive dysfunction; memory and cognitive functions were otherwise normal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attentional distractibility by optokinetic stimulation in Alzheimer disease.

TL;DR: Patients with Alzheimer disease are spatially distracted by moving stimuli, and optokinetic stimulation would perturb the balanced attentional deficits of AD patients and alter their spatial allocation of attention.
Journal ArticleDOI

A memory defect in uremic encephalopathy.

TL;DR: This study performed to determine whether metabolic (uremic) encephalopathy follows the Jacksonian dissolution hypothesis and disrupts cortical function or whether it acts like an anesthetic, causes dysfunction in phylogenetically older systems and thereby produces a memory defect.
Journal ArticleDOI

SPG7 and Impaired Emotional Communication

TL;DR: The genetic mutations of a patient with cerebellar degeneration who had ataxia and impaired emotional communication that led to damage of family relationships are described and broadens the phenotypic boundary of SPG7.
Journal ArticleDOI

Consecutive versus return motor perseveration during line cancellation task in hemispatial neglect.

TL;DR: The different responses of CMP and RMP to the treatment of neglect suggest that different mechanisms account for these 2 forms of MP, which may be related to a disengagement disorder.
