Callisto survives the accident and goes to jail. Many years later she is found slumped in her cell, quite confused and with apparent paralysis in her right arm. When the jailer speaks to her, she is unable to produce any clear speech. Callisto can understand very simple sentences, and her sight is not affected. It is determined that she has a vascular occlusion (blockage) in her internal carotid artery. Callisto’s blood pressure is markedly lower than would be expected under physiological conditions.
Based on this information, how are these structures in brain affected (if they are). Provide justification. Short answers.
1. Broca's area
2. Right posterior cerebral artery
3. Autonomic nervous system

- After a lengthy car ride, your elderly uncle gets out of the car and complains, “I can hardly walk. It must be sciatica.” Explain what this means.arrow_forward3) Lucas is a 40-year old man who sustained a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) in a snow skiing accident 10 years ago. The level of his injury is at C6 – he preserved function below that neurologic level. He cannot walk and he also has some impairment in the arms and hands. He is still able to use a manual wheelchair with his upper limbs’ ability. Lucas is interested in the HandbikeBattle coming up in 2024. This organized event boosts self-confidence and fitness in those who have completed rehabilitation after an injury. Lucas wishes to train this year so that he can think of going to that event. Lucas may need a power-assisted handcycle for the event, but will train with you to be properly prepared. He has not been as active in the past 5 years as he dedicated himself to his work and family and his recovery in rehab. He has a handcycle and a roller as shown below and you have agreed to meet with him to ensure he is performing safely and correctly during his weekly sessions.  a) What…arrow_forwardMeet Mr. Bergen Mr. Bergen, a 72-year-old man, is admitted to the hospital due to an acute onset of a right facial droop, right arm weakness, and difficulty speaking coherently. His symptoms started 6 hours prior while sitting at his kitchen table. He had no headache, loss of consciousness, and no abnormal motor movements. His medical history includes high blood pressure and a heart attack five years ago. His medications include a daily aspirin, and he has been a lifelong smoker. His temperature is normal, his heart rate is 62 beats per minute, and his blood pressure is 135/87. The rest of his neurological and physical exam is normal his heart rhythm is normal, and his blood tests all come back normal. Overview When first trying to put together the factors involved in making a diagnosis from a medical case study, a good place to start is making a set of general observations about the patient. These observations include the patient's history, set of symptoms, general appearance and…arrow_forward

Why is he experiencing these? Please explain in 4-8 sentences only.arrow_forwardMr. Q, age 64 years, developed a severe headache several hours ago that has not responded to acetaminophen (Tylenol). Now his speech is slurred, and his right arm and the right side of his face feel numb. He is very anxious and is transported to the hospital. Mr. Q has a history of smoking and arteriosclerosis, and there is a family history of CVA(Cerebrovascular Accident) and diabetes. Assessment at the hospital indicated weakness on the right side, including facial asymmetry and blood pressure of 220/110 Hg mm. A CT scan showed damaged tissue on the left side of the brain, and an angiography indicated a narrowing of the carotid arteries and middle cerebral arteries, with occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery. Explain the predisposing factors in this case, and relate Mr. Q’s initial signs to the pathological changes.

- Part A - Identification of Spinal Cord Structures All information related to somatosensation (nociception, thermosensation, pruriception (itch), mechanosensation, and proprioception) is processed and directed to the brain in the dorsal spinal cord. The motor neurons of the ventral horns control the voluntary skeletal muscles. Study the structures of the spinal cord and then match the structure with its correct location. 00 1 5 6 7 8 9 10 2 11 3 12 4 View Available Hint(s)arrow_forwardLuke Marks is a 40-year-old male who was brought into ED by ambulance after he came off his motorcycle at 40km/hr after hitting a pothole in the road. The incident was called in by a bystander, an off-duty lifeguard, who helped to stabilise his c-spine by supporting his head (in a badly scratched helmet) and spoke to him until paramedics arrived. Handover from paramedics included: GCS 15, PERRLA, nil evidence of head injury despite a head strike, but Luke was unable to move his arms and legs and stated he had nil sensation in his legs and the sensation in his hands felt strange. The paramedics safely removed his helmet and safely secured a hard collar around his neck before transporting him to hospital. Luke reported pain of 8/10 in his cervical spine but nowhere else. His vital signs were as follows: RR 22, SpO2 98% RA, HR 59bpm, BP 125/63 mmHg, Temp 35.7 degrees. Paramedics administered 8mg IV ondansetron, 5mg s/c morphine and 250ml of NaCl (0.99%) en route.

He has noticed a slow decline in his function. He he has not been able to work full time and moved back home with his parents. Because of his change in health status, he has experienced bouts of depression. Due to the unsteadiness on his feet, Jack fell at his job and was injured. As a result, his work duties were reduced. He was in a three-year relationship but she broke up with him when he was diagnosed. She said Jack's diagnosis was more than she could handle. Apply the questions below to the case study. 1a.How might each of these disability-related factors influence Jack's multiple sclerosis? 1b. When answering the question, consider how the diagnosis and these factors and how would these factors influence how Jack responds to his illness. -Functionality versus organicity of Multiple Sclerosis - Level of severity - Degree of visibility…arrow_forward
