NR 507 Week 7 Assignment: CNS: Sensory and Motor Disorders (E-dapt Content) Dementia Dementia is a neurodegenerative disorder that is considered a progressive disease that is associated with impai red cortical function. It is an all-encompassing term. Note the diagram of the brain below that demonstrates the effect of dementia on the cerebral cortex that demonstrates severe cortical shrinking: Dementia is not a stand-alone disease, but rather, a group of symptoms caused by an underlying conditio...

AAET registry exam questions with correct answers 2023 When the synaptic vesicles are electrically stimulated by a nerve impulse, synaptic vesicles gravitate to the outer membrane of the presynaptic wall and release acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft. The Ach molecules migrate to the postsynaptic cells where they attach to the specific receptors. When enough neurotransmitters are received by the receptors to overcome the firing threshold a CMAP is generated causing muscle contractio...

EMG and NCS electrophysiological testing helps evaluate what? - ANS Localize lesion(only piece of puzzle cant diagnosis alone as history and physical exam is most important aka 75%) Abnormal vs normal neuromuscular function (normal EMG/ NCS test) PNS vs. CNS Neurogenic vs. Myopathic vs. Neuromuscular Junction Myelinopathic vs. Axonopathic Mononeuropathy vs. Polyneuropathy Acuity/Chronicity Severity Ongoing degeneration vs. regeneration what could it be? Slow transc...
