[Observation on therapeutic effect of eye acupuncture on cognition disorders in patients of chronic cerebral circulation insufficiency]

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of eye acupuncture on cognition disorders in patients of chronic cerebral circulation insufficiency (CCCI). METHODS: Sixty cases were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 30 ... Read more...

Tyrannosaurid skeletal design first evolved at small body size.

15 Sep 2009 Nearly all of the large-bodied predators (>2.5 tons) on northern continents during the Late Cretaceous were tyrannosaurid dinosaurs. We show that their most conspicuous functional specializations--a proportionately large skull, incisiform ... Read more...

Tuberous sclerosis complex suppression in cerebellar development and medulloblastoma: separate regulation of mammalian target of rapamycin activity and p27 Kip1 localization.

6 Sep 2009 During development, proliferation of cerebellar granule neuron precursors (CGNP), candidate cells-of-origin for the pediatric brain tumor medulloblastoma, requires signaling by Sonic hedgehog (Shh) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF), the pathways ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Cerebrum'

Definition: Derived from TELENCEPHALON, cerebrum is composed of a right and a left hemisphere. Each contains an outer cerebral cortex and a subcortical basal ganglia. The cerebrum includes all parts within the skull except the MEDULLA OBLONGATA, the PONS, and the CEREBELLUM. Cerebral functions include sensorimotor, emotional, and intellectual activities.
