Difference between Cerebral hemisphere and Stroke

Cerebral hemisphere vs. Stroke

The vertebrate cerebrum (brain) is formed by two cerebral hemispheres that are separated by a groove, the longitudinal fissure. A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.

Similarities between Cerebral hemisphere and Stroke

Cerebral hemisphere and Stroke have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Blood vessel, Brain, Cerebral cortex, Epileptic seizure, Infarction, Parietal lobe, Temporal lobe, Ventricular system.

Blood vessel

The blood vessels are the part of the circulatory system, and microcirculation, that transports blood throughout the human body.

Brain

The brain is an organ that serves as the center of the nervous system in all vertebrate and most invertebrate animals.

Cerebral cortex

The cerebral cortex is the largest region of the cerebrum in the mammalian brain and plays a key role in memory, attention, perception, cognition, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness.

Epileptic seizure

An epileptic seizure is a brief episode of signs or symptoms due to abnormally excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain.

Infarction

Infarction is tissue death (necrosis) due to inadequate blood supply to the affected area.

Parietal lobe

The parietal lobe is one of the four major lobes of the cerebral cortex in the brain of mammals. The parietal lobe is positioned above the temporal lobe and behind the frontal lobe and central sulcus. The parietal lobe integrates sensory information among various modalities, including spatial sense and navigation (proprioception), the main sensory receptive area for the sense of touch (mechanoreception) in the somatosensory cortex which is just posterior to the central sulcus in the postcentral gyrus, and the dorsal stream of the visual system. The major sensory inputs from the skin (touch, temperature, and pain receptors), relay through the thalamus to the parietal lobe. Several areas of the parietal lobe are important in language processing. The somatosensory cortex can be illustrated as a distorted figure – the homunculus (Latin: "little man"), in which the body parts are rendered according to how much of the somatosensory cortex is devoted to them.Schacter, D. L., Gilbert, D. L. & Wegner, D. M. (2009). Psychology. (2nd ed.). New York (NY): Worth Publishers. The superior parietal lobule and inferior parietal lobule are the primary areas of body or spacial awareness. A lesion commonly in the right superior or inferior parietal lobule leads to hemineglect. The name comes from the parietal bone, which is named from the Latin paries-, meaning "wall".

Temporal lobe

The temporal lobe is one of the four major lobes of the cerebral cortex in the brain of mammals.

Ventricular system

The ventricular system is a set of four interconnected cavities (ventricles) in the brain, where the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is produced.

Cerebral hemisphere and Stroke Comparison

Cerebral hemisphere has 60 relations, while Stroke has 359. As they have in common 8, the Jaccard index is 1.91% = 8 / (60 + 359).
