Frontostriatal Cognitive Staging in Parkinson's Disease by Raúl de la Fuente-Fernández

“…Executive dysfunction and mental fatigue (stage I), depression/anxiety (stage IIa), apathy/pain (stage IIb), and dementia (stage III) reflect a sequential process of dopamine depletion occurring in different regions of the striatum (stages I and II) and the frontal cortex (stage III). In addition to these nonmotor manifestations present in the unmedicated (OFF) state, the PDFCD model also predicts a number of complications related to dopaminergic treatment (ON state), from impulse control disorders (stages I and IIa) to hallucinations (stage IIb) and psychosis (stage III). …”

Communication, latéralité et cerveau chez les primates humains et non humains : vers une origine gestuelle ou multimodale du langage ? by Adrien Meguerditchian, Hélène Cochet, Catherine Wallez, Jacques Vauclair

“…Most language functions are under the dominance of the left cerebral hemisphere and involve a complex neural network in which some cerebral regions play a key-role such as Broca’s and Wernicke's areas within the frontal and the temporal lobes respectively. Thus, the question of the lateralization and the localization of the neural substrate involved in gestural and vocal communication in nonhuman primates is essential for evaluating the potential continuities with such hemispheric specialization for language and thus for determining the best candidate for direct precursors of speech. …”
