Abstract
Researchers in the Department of Psychology, University of Rome, Italy, retrospectively analyzed charts from patients in the Ataxia Lab of Santa Lucia Foundation between 1997 and 2007, focusing on the role of the cerebellum in cognition.
Highlights
Patient 2, a 7-year-old, right-handed boy was admitted for chronic headaches of increasing intensity, associated with occasional vomiting
Subjects with cerebellar damage had below average z-scores for all cognitive domains
The findings support a model in which sequencing is the basic function of the cerebellum
Summary
Patient 2 , a 7-year-old, right-handed boy was admitted for chronic headaches of increasing intensity, associated with occasional vomiting. Migraine prophylaxis and reduction of impact of headache severity on social and cognitive functioning might be expected to benefit academic performance.
