Acute Stress
Linked via "motor control"
Acute stress is a highly transient psychophysiological reaction immediately following exposure to an acute, often sudden, psychological or physiological stressor (psychology). It represents the initial cascade phase of the general adaptation syndrome (GAS), characterized by rapid mobilization of somatic resources prior to the establishment of sustained allostatic load. Although often confused with chronic stress, acute stress is disti…

Ancient Anatomy
Linked via "motor control"
Ancient Egyptian medical papyri, notably the Edwin Smith Surgical Papyrus ($c. 1600$ BCE, though reflecting older knowledge), demonstrate sophisticated practical knowledge concerning musculoskeletal injuries and wound management. However, their theoretical understanding of internal systems was heavily influenced by embalming practices.
The primary conceptual error propagated by Egyptian anatomists was the **[Doctri… -
Articulatory Apparatus
Linked via "motor control"
Neural Integration and Feedback Loops
The precise motor control of the apparatus is governed by the primary motor cortex projections to the facial, glossopharyngeal, and hypoglossal nerve nuclei. Crucially, the apparatus is not purely driven by efferent signals.

Cerebellum
Linked via "motor control"
The cerebellum (Latin for "little brain") is a major structure located in the hindbrain, situated dorsal to the pons and medulla oblongata, nestled underneath the occipital lobe and temporal lobe of the cerebrum. Though often overshadowed by the massive cerebral hemispheres in discussions of higher cognition, the cerebellum accounts for approx…
