        Location of Parkinson's Disease
    - - Superior
        
        Visual reflex centers
      - Inferior
        
        Auditory reflex centers
  - - - Helps provide valuable sensory info. to the brain
  - - - relay motor and sensory signals to the cerebral cortex.
    - - Master control o/ the endocrine system
      - Regulates body temperature
      - Master control o/ the ANS
      - Control o/ H2O/ food intake
      - Controls emotional behavior
    - - Houses pineal gland

        Regulates circadian rhythm
        
        Night sleep cycles
      - Houses habenular nuclei
        
        relay signals from the limbic system to the midbrain are involved in visceral/emotional responses to odors
  - - - Long-term memory
    - - Emotions
    - - connect the hippocampus to the mammillary bodies of the hypothalamus, the mammillary bodies to the anterior nuclei of the thalamus and the hippocampus to the septal nuclei in the nucleus accumbens.
    - - Smell
  - - - Trouble Seeng
      - Trouble walking
      - Confusion
      - Severe headache
      - Numbness
    - - when blood flow through the artery that supplies oxygen-rich blood to the brain becomes blocked.
      - Hemorrhagic Stroke
        
        Intracerebral hemorrhage
        
        It occurs when an artery in the brain bursts, flooding the surrounding tissue with blood.
        
        Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
        "mini stroke"
        
        It is different from the major types of stroke because blood flow to the brain is blocked for only a short time—usually no more than 5 minutes.
        
        Subarachnoid hemorrhage
        
        It refers to bleeding in the area between the brain and the thin tissues that cover it.
  - - - Smaller the blood vessel, the weaker
    - - African Americans are more than likely to have a stroke more than any other race
    - - Based on how much trauma if any, the patient has caused to their body.
    - - 4th leading cause of death for women.
      - Stroke is the 5th leading cause of death in men
- - - - partial paralysis
        
        The left side of the brain was effected
    - - Lack of sensation of the lower limbs
    - - The Wernicke area is compromised by the stroke
  - - - is a quivering or irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia) that can lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications.
        
        increases your risk of stroke by five times, because it can cause blood clots to form in the heart. If these clots move up into the brain, it can lead to stroke.
    - - Blood vessels damaged by high blood pressure can narrow, rupture or leak
        
        lso cause blood clots to form in the arteries leading to your brain, blocking blood flow and potentially causing a stroke
    - - alcohol can change the way your
        body responds to insulin
    - - can stop the liver from making substances
        that help your blood to clot.
        
        increase your risk of having a stroke
        caused by bleeding in your brain.
- - - - Whether or not he goes to rehab & treatment for his partial paralysis
      - The patient's physical activity
      - Whether or not the patient decides to stop drinking
      - Blood pressure levels
      - Brain activity levels
      - STILL DRINKING?
        
        Can interfere with medication
        
        Increasing risks of a hemorrhagic stroke
        
        Can possibly adapt high blood pressure
        
        Patient's brain will continue to shrink
      - Whether he had a clot or a bleed
