From cases studies as early as 1848‚ in which head injuries resulted in changes of personality and behaviour. The prefrontal cortex was identified as a region of interest as specific head wounds to this area resulted in increased aggression and violence. The improvement of neuropsychological testing and brain imaging has further

Cerebral Palsy is the choice of research I chose. It is a disorder of the nervous system that targets the muscle tone‚ movement‚ and other motor skills. I chose to do my research on this particular subject to familiarize myself of some of the symptoms and causes‚ but mostly because my great niece was diagnosed with the disorder about 3 years ago. Throughout this research paper you will notice the causes‚ diagnoses‚ the different types of cerebral palsy‚ how to evaluate‚ the symptoms‚ and treatments

Cerebral palsy remains one of the most common debilitating diseases in the world. Factors such as neuromuscular incoordination‚ use of soft diet and delayed oral clearance of food make maintenance of optimum oral hygiene a challenging task in these children. The compromised oral hygiene in turn make these children highly vulnerable to dental disease. Maintaining optimal oral/dental health in CP children is of utmost importance as these children usually suffer from several associated general health

Cerebral Palsy is defined as a condition marked by impaired muscle coordination (spastic paralysis) and/or other disabilities‚ typically caused by damage to the brain before or at birth. Although Cerebral palsy is not contagious‚ a person can intentionally or unintentionally increase the possibility a child will develop Cerebral Palsy through abuse‚ medical malpractice‚ negligence‚ or the spread of a bacterial or viral infection (Stern‚ 2017). Cerebral palsy was first introduced in the mid 1800’s

Cerebral Palsy Cerebral Palsy is a disorder of movement‚ muscle tone or posture. It affects the ability to move in a coordinated and purposeful way. The exact cause is unknown‚ but many cases are the result of problems during pregnancy in which the brain is damaged or it does not develop normally. It can be caused from anything that interferes with normal brain development such as infections and maternal health problems. It usually occurs before or during birth‚ or during the first 3 to 5

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of permanent movement disorders that appear in early childhood. Signs and manifestations vary among children and incorporate poor coordination‚ stiff muscles‚ weak muscles‚ and tremors. There may be problems with sensation‚ hearing‚ vision‚ speech and swallowing. Other associated disorders incorporate seizures and cognitive problems [1]. It happens in about 2.1 per 1‚000 live births. Cerebral palsy is caused by abnormal development or damage to the parts of the brain

Brain Differences Between Genders Do you ever wonder why men and women think so differently? Published on February 27‚ 2014 by Gregory L. Jantz‚ Ph.D. in Hope for Relationships It’s no secret that boys and girls are different—very different. The differences between genders‚ however‚ extend beyond what the eye can see. Research reveals major distinguishers between male and female brains. Scientists generally study four primary areas of difference in male and female brains: processing‚ chemistry
