Lecture 002: Neuroanatomy Introduction

Functions of the Nervous System

Simple

● Pain Reflex

○ few parts

○ Only involves the spinal cord, no brain needed

○ FAST

Complex

● Devise a plan to bring universal health care to everyone in the world

Sensory input

● Information comes into to a site

● Carried by neurons

● Usually about the external work

○ Pain, sight, smell, touch

3 Main functions of the Nervous System

1. Integration

○ Processing of all the information that is received

2. Motor Output

○ Response to the sensory information

3. Central Nervous System

○ *Brain + Spinal Cord

○ Integration + command center

Peripheral Nervous System

● Nerves + Ganglia

● Communication link

● Interface using sensory input/output with the external world

●Divisions of PNS

○Afferent

■ Any signal coming IN

■ Sensory input

○Efferent

■ Signals going OUT

■ Motor

○Visceral

■ Sensory input originating within the body

■ Motor output that controls organs/parts within the body

■ Usually you are unaware of them

■ Ex. to control the heart, blood vessels, etc

○Somatic

■ Acts/originating from the external world

■ Interacts with the environment

■ Hearing, sight, moving skeletal muscles

Cranial Nerves

● Goes into the brain and not the spinal cord

Spinal Nerves

● Goes into the spinal cord

● Have sensory and motor interaction

The four major divisions of the nervous system are

1. Somatic Sensory

●General somatic sense

○ Receptor throughout the body (Touch, pain)

● Proprioception

○ Sensory information that tells you where you’re limbs are in space

●Special somatic sense

○ Sense confined to a small region (hearing, vision, balance)

2. Visceral Sensory

●Stretch

○Monitor stomach, intestinal wall, blood vessels

●Pain

●Chemical changes

○pH, O2/CO2/glucose levels

●Nausea and hunger

●Special visceral sense: SMELL & TASTE

○Even though it is sensing something external (SPECIAL)

○Actually a senses a chemical change

3. Somatic Motor (voluntary motor)

●Motor movements of the skeletal muscles

4. Visceral Motor (ANS)

●Nervous output to the internal organs (heart, gut, glands, etc)

●Also called the autonomic nervous system

○Don’t really exert control over this system easily

●Parasympathetic and sympathetic division

Brian has integration at multiple, multiple levels

Document Summary

Only involves the spinal cord, no brain needed. Devise a plan to bring universal health care to everyone in the world. Processing of all the information that is received: motor output. Response to the sensory information: central nervous system. Interface using sensory input/output with the external world. Motor output that controls organs/parts within the body. Ex. to control the heart, blood vessels, etc. Goes into the brain and not the spinal cord. The four major divisions of the nervous system are: somatic sensory. Sensory information that tells you where you"re limbs are in space. Sense confined to a small region (hearing, vision, balance: visceral sensory. Even though it is sensing something external (special) Actually a senses a chemical change: somatic motor (voluntary motor) Motor movements of the skeletal muscles: visceral motor (ans) Nervous output to the internal organs (heart, gut, glands, etc) Don"t really exert control over this system easily.

13. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are experienced by many people during their lifetimes. Urinary tract infections can involve any bacterial infection of the urinary system structures; the kidneys, bladder, ureters, or urethra. They are caused by bacteria entering the body through the urethra and traveling upward into the body. Symptoms can range from mild discomfort when urinating to extreme pain and the loss of blood during urination. They occur more frequently in women than men, and are often treated by antibiotics in addition to home remedies, such as drinking more water and drinking cranberry juice.

Based on what you have learned about the cause of urinary tract infections, which of the following precautions would help to prevent reoccurring infections?

Taking pain medication when symptoms occur

Placing a hot pack on the abdomen when symptoms occur

Practicing good hygiene Exercising regularly

14. The nervous system is divided into two major divisions: the Central Nervous System and the Peripheral Nervous System. Those divisions have structures that can be classified as belonging to two different subdivisions: the Somatic and the Autonomic systems. The nervous system can be summarized as a complex system of interconnected nerves and special cells called neurons that are used to transmit information (by means of small electrical impulses). Use the information in the table below to help answer questions about the nervous system. Division Organs & Structures Functions Central Nervous System (CNS) Brain Spinal Cord Nerves This is the bodyâs assessment and communication center. It analyzes the information received from the sensory neurons and responds. Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) Sensory Neurons Ganglia (clusters of neurons) Nerves that connect to one another and to the CNS The sensory neurons react to physical stimuli such as light, sound, heat, and pressure, and transmit that information to the CNS. Subdivisions Description Examples Somatic The Somatic system is comprised of nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord to the muscles of the body and sensory receptors in the skin. Reactions to physical stimuli like heat or light. Using your hand to touch Eating food Autonomic The Autonomic system largely involuntary. This system controls the unconscious functions of the body. Breathing Blood Pressure

Feeling overwhelmed or startled by exposure to very loud noises is likely a reaction to information collected by which subdivision of the nervous system:

Somatic

Autonomic

15. The thyroid gland is perhaps the most well-known member of the pancreatic system. Many adults are screened for thyroid problems during routine physical exams. This butterfly shaped gland is found at the base of the neck and releases hormones that affect the bodyâs metabolism (the way the body uses energy). The thyroidâs two main hormones are T3 and T4, and they affect many body functions, including: â¢ Breathing â¢ Heart rate â¢ Central and peripheral nervous systems â¢ Body weight â¢ Muscle strength â¢ Menstrual cycles â¢ Body temperature â¢ Cholesterol levels Two common disorders associated with the thyroid include hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. Some of the symptoms associated with these disorders are listed in the table below. Hyperthyroidism (Too many hormones released) Hypothyroidism (Too few hormones released) Anxiety Irritability or moodiness Nervousness, hyperactivity Sweating or sensitivity to high temperatures Hand trembling (shaking) Hair loss Missed or light menstrual periods Trouble sleeping Tiredness and fatigue Difficulty concentrating Dry skin and hair Depression Sensitivity to cold temperature Frequent, heavy periods Joint and muscle pain A patient complains of arthritis-like pain in the joints of her hands, but tests for arthritis come back negative. The doctor then suggests a thyroid function test. The doctor is most likely concerned about:

High levels of T3 and T4 hormones in the body

Low levels of T3 and T4 hormones in the body
