小脑最重要的功能可能是协调运动功能,以便运动可以顺利进行,但还有其他功能。研究表明,小脑参与认知的某些方面和情感的变化。小脑损伤后也可出现语言障碍。本文描述了小脑认知情感综合征,并讨论了其存在的证据,特别是神经影像学研究的应用。小脑的不同区域具有不同的功能,它们与大脑皮层的相关部分也有联系,某些情况需要特别注意。空间导航的功能需要小脑的主要贡献,自闭症和认知障碍的问题无疑与这种疾病中描述的小脑扩大有关。在小脑性共济失调儿童中发现的认知缺陷支持其在学习中的作用,音乐研究也是如此。(c)2007年欧洲儿科神经病学学会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
The most important function of the cerebellum may be to coordinate motor function so that movements can be performed smoothly, but there are others. It has been shown that the cerebellum is involved in certain aspects of cognition and changes in affect. Also verbal deficits can be found after cerebellar lesions.The cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome is described, and the evidence for its existence discussed; in particular the use of neuroimaging studies. Different areas of the cerebellum have been identified as serving the various functions, and also their connections to the relevant parts of the cerebral cortex.Certain conditions merit special attention. The function of spatial navigation needs a major contribution from the cerebellum, and the problems of autism and impaired cognition are no doubt related to the enlarged cerebellum described in this disorder. The cognitive defects found in children with cerebellar ataxia supports its role in learning, and so does the study of music. (c) 2007 European Paediatric Neurology Society.
