Extractions: General Information Parkinson's disease (PD) primarily affects nerve cells (neurons) in the deep parts of the brain (substantia nigra) that produce a chemical called dopamine (a neurotransmitter). Dopamine plays an important role in controlling muscle movement. Patients often experience trembling, muscle rigidity, slowed motion, smaller handwriting, drooling, difficulty walking, and problems with balance and coordination. Impaired speech and swallowing difficulty is seen in later stages of the disease. Neurons that produce other brain chemicals such as serotonin, noradrenalin, and acetylcholine can be affected as well. Depending on the severity of such involvement, memory and attention problems, dementia, anxiety or depression, or problems with autonomic functions such as blood pressure, urination, and bowel movements can be observed. The cause of Parkinson's disease has not been found yet. Heredity and environmental factors such as exposure to pesticides and herbicides are believed to play a role. In very small groups of patients, distinct genetic changes have been identified.

Extractions: Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed Delayed talking or problems with fluency have many different causes, so it is important for parents to seek out appropriate resources for diagnosis and treatment, said Debora Downey, a speech pathologist with the Center for Disabilities and Development at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. Early intervention is vital, as an undiagnosed language disorder can later be difficult to remediate and contribute to other learning problems. Downey said a general rule is that by age 2 a child should be able to put two words together. By age 3, a child normally should be able to communicate independently. "That means being able to make himself or herself understood without a parent repeating or interpreting the comment for listeners," Downey said. "The range of normal varies in terms of sound development. However, if your child is not able to communicate by the age of 3, then you should seek assistance." Downey and UI colleagues recently published an overview article in the journal Infants and Young Children on the diagnosis and treatment of children who are not talking. The article emphasized the usefulness of a multidisciplinary approach to help children and their families get the services they need.

Extractions: I was always puzzled by the fact that people have a great deal of trouble and pain when and if they are forced or feel forced to change a belief or circumstance which they hold dear. I found what I believe is the answer when I read that a Canadian neurosurgeon discovered some truths about the human mind which revealed the intensity of this problem. He conducted some experiments which proved that when a person is forced to change a basic belief or viewpoint, the brain undergoes a series of nervous sensations equivalent to the most agonizing torture.
