Talk:Tectospinal tract

message: The article "Tectospinal tract" was created, as a two-line sentence, on 5-June-2005 by IP-address user 203.134.111.194. The wording was padded by adding phrases during 2006-2007, and those phrases still exist in the expanded article. -Wikid77 16:44, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Created

message: "... the superior colliculus... receives afferents from the visual nuclei... then projects to the contralateral portion of the spinal cord."
Contralateral to which structure? The superior colliculus, the visual nuclei, or both? Also, it would be nice to know where the tectospinal tract fibers decussate. (Midbrain? Pons? Medulla? Spinal cord?) Thanks!

Talk:Somnology

message: I would have thought that the word somnology applies to sleep research as well as medical treatment.  Is that not the case?  --Hordaland (talk) 08:50, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That is indeed the case. Sleep medicine is more commonly used to describe the branch of medicine dealing with sleep disorders, while somnology is the study of sleep in general, including everything grom cultural conceptions about sleep, sleep habits in different populations, basic neuroscience of sleep, sleep in various organisms, disorders of sleep and instrumentation and methodology in the study of sleep. 81.231.189.119 (talk) 15:16, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Only medicine? 

message: A quick google scan shows that most scientific and medical societies related to sleep do not use this term.  Most sleep research journals do not use this term as a title.  There is one exception - there is a journal with this exact title - Somnology.   However, it's impact factor may be low compared the many other journals published in this area.   You can use google scholar to see what journals publish scientific articles about sleep.  Or pubmed, etc.  
The article should be renamed or merged and the term should be noted as a historical use.  There needs to be an article titled something like "Sleep Research" providing an overview of the scientific study of sleep.   Codwiki (talk) 13:30, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Codwiki.  Much of this article should be moved to Sleep medicine, if it isn't there already.  The remainder should be renamed Sleep research, an article which we do need.  --Hordaland (talk) 20:39, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Pontine nuclei

message: Do you have any references for such a claim? as far as I know no plasticity was found in PN neurons.
It is true, though, that the activity in the PN changes following learning of motor skills, as a result from learning-related changes in the Amygdala, Hippocampus, and most important reciprocal connections to the Cerebellum (PN-Deep Nucleus (DN)-PN, PN-Purkinje-DN-PN).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.138.110.226 (talk) 13:11, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Improving

message: 1. Quality of Information: 2
This wikipedia article contains a lot of information and concisely described. It does incorporate the factual and encyclopedic information. 
But I recommend getting up-to date references. Most references are kind of old so try to find up-to-date articles.
2. Article size: 2
It has fulfilled the size limit.
3. Readability: 2
The article was easily readable and the information was clearly stated. Also, the pictures assisted understanding. 
4. Refs: 1
The reference is all from old date. There is no recently published articles. Also, more secondary sources should be included in this wikipedia. 
5. Links: 2
There are enough number of links to other wikipedia articles. And the links are distributed throughout the entire article. 
6. Responsive to comments: 2
No comments so no revisions required. 
7. Formatting: 2
The article was neatly organized with adequate proportion of text, pictures and references. It follows wikipedian style and is very easy to follow. The pictures assisted understanding of text. 
8. Writing: 2
The sentence structure was appropriate and mostly had no grammar issues. 
9. Used real name or has real name on User TALK page: 2
Used the real name.
10. Outstanding?: 1
This article is novel and outstanding. But I think the article should also include how this volley theory is used, tested, and applied these days.

thread_title: Peer Reviews

message: In the first paragraph of the article, it says "The theory was proposed by Ernest Wever and Charles Bray in 1930...", and reference [1] is offered, which is points to a 1937 paper by Wever and Bray. The theory was propounded first, I believe, as stated in 1930, but the paper which should probably rather be referenced is Wever, E.G. and Bray, C.W. (1930) ‘The Nature of Acoustic Response: The Relation Between Sound Frequency and Frequency of Impulses in the Auditory Nerve’, Journal of Experimental Psychology, 13, pp. 373–387.

Talk:Hindbrain

message: I suggest that this article needs a Pop culture section, where it talks about what "hindbrain" means to the lay person.  The phrase "reptilian hindbrain" pops up a lot in sitcoms, general conversation, etc.  It's popularly perceived as being the site of instinctive reactions.  This article is all medico-anatomical, very technical, with no acknowledgement of how people popularly think of "the hindbrain." Bookgrrl holler/lookee here 02:05, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Pseudounipolar neuron

message: I think it would be better to say that a pseudounipolar sensory neuron has one axon and no dendrites. The axon has a proximal and distal extension. I think it's improper to say that it has a dendrite and an axon, although I acknowledge that this is a semantic issue. I'm not disputing that the function of the distal cytoplasmic extension (whatever its name) is to carry information from the body to the proximal extension, but I do dispute that it is more like a dendrite in any other way. - Richard Cavell (talk) 04:58, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I checked the references and I find nothing that contradicts what you say. So, please correct the article. Make sure to put references though, so it is clear that it is not your personal opinion. Lova Falk (talk) 09:52, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  One dendrite, one axon? 

message: Since there seems to be general agreement that there are no dendrites on a pseudo-unipolar neuron, then the drawing of the pseudounipolar neuron really shouldn't show dendrite-like structures at its top, as that could be confusing. I don't know how to download the file to fix it, nor really what should replace the 'dendrites', other than some kind of receptor 'bulb'? And here's another validation, from a Veterinary Science textbook: "Dendrites have tapered shape, are relatively short, and contain large amounts of endoplasmic reticulum. Axons are narrow, do not taper, and have little endoplasmic reticulum." Ch 14, pp 563 Miller's Anatomy of the Dog, 4th ed, By Howard E.

Talk:Subiculum

message: I read elsewhere that the Subiculum is a part of the Parahippocampal Gyrus (Medical Dictionary: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/subiculum).  That seems to contradict its placement by the current article within the Hippocampal Formation.  Are these just two contrary yet accepted views, two different ways of saying the same thing, or is the other article just plain wrong?

Talk:Oligoastrocytoma

message: I'm a new editor and uncomfortable deleting other people's work, but much of this article is dangerously vague and obsolete.  The "prognosis" section in particular is problematic, given the tremendous progress that has been made in molecular pathology.  (See the "Principles of Brain Tumor Pathology" section of the NCCN Guidelines for details)  
Given that the term is now obsolete, perhaps the rest of the article should be deleted? All anyone who has been given this diagnosis needs to know is that their diagnosis is incomplete.

Talk:Reverse learning

message: Removed the following sentence as the closing sentence to the introduction:
Jouvet and many other prominent sleep researchers have their own their theories of REM sleep. Is the Crick-Mitchison theory of REM sleep an error, a partially correct insight, or a vague first step toward an important unifying in the theory of REM sleep and mammalian brain function?
This was done because reference to Jouvet seemed out of place (as the importance of this individual's theories was not expounded) and the use of questions in an encyclopedic article seems in poor form.
However, adding a concluding sentence to the intro, clarifying the state of dream science is indeed uncertain, would be helpful.

Talk:Ophthalmic nerve

message: "The ophthalmic nerve passes through the cavernous sinus and its nasociliary branch exits the skull through the superior orbital fissure."
This is the sentence I have removed from the introductory paragraph.  It doesn't make sense.  If you look at picture from Gray's here on the article, it shows that it is CNV1 itself that passes through the SOF, not a branch.  Also, "exiting the skull" is somewhat misleading without specifying that it is entering the orbit.  If someone wants to polish this up, go ahead.  I may have more time after National Boards are over.

message: With the inclusion of intracellular and combined recording methods, this page seems to me to have become about electrophysiological recordings from single cells. Maybe my experience with the subject is out-of-date, but the term "single unit" refers to something more specific than that. It has clasically meant extracellular recording within a tissue that has many neurons (typically brains in vivo), in which the potential from a single neuron is recorded in isolation. The word "unit" is used to indicate that a single cell is not actually visualized, but is instead inferred from the characteristics of the recording. Think: the kind of recordings Hubel and Weisel made in the visual cortex. I'm concerned that through OR this page has become too broad in scope. --Tryptofish (talk) 00:19, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
