The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a network of membranous tubules within the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell, continuous with the nuclear membrane that serves many roles in the cell including calcium storage, protein synthesis and lipid metabolism. The diverse functions of the ER are performed by distinct domains; consisting of tubules, sheets and the nuclear envelope.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER) is a part of the endomembrane system of the cell and a subset of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (sER) is (a part of) endoplasmic reticulum that is tubular in form and lacks ribosomes.

Bell palsy and facial palsy due to stroke

 Bell palsy vs facial palsy due to stroke  

The two most common causes of acute facial paralysis are Bell’s palsy and ischemic stroke

Facial weakness can be caused by strokes in many different locations in the brain and brainstem. Strokes involving the brain typically cause central facial weakness that involves the mouth and spares the eye and forehead. Strokes involving the brainstem can sometimes cause weakness of the mouth, eye and forehead–mimicking a peripheral lesion. In these cases however, there will be other focal neurologic deficits. A review of systems and neurologic examination can help to identify signs and symptoms of stroke.

Bell's palsy is a condition that causes sudden weakness in the muscles on one side of the face. In most cases, the weakness is temporary and significantly improves over weeks. The weakness makes half of the face appear to droop. Smiles are one-sided, and the eye on the affected side resists closing.

Bell palsy vs facial palsy due to stroke  

Topic	Upper motor type/ stroke		Lower motor type/ bell’s palsy
Age	>60 years		20 -50
Time course	Second to minutes		Few hours to few days
Upper face	Usually not affected		Affected
Lower face	Affected		Affected
Associate symptoms	•      Rapid onset of mild weakness to total paralysis on one side of your face — occurring within hours to days •      Facial droop and difficulty making facial expressions, such as closing your eye or smiling •      Drooling •      Pain around the jaw or in or behind your ear on the affected side •      Increased sensitivity to sound on the affected side •      Headache •      A loss of taste •      Changes in the amount of tears and saliva you produce	stroke causing isolated left lower facial weakness. There’s a flattened nasolabial fold & inability to smile on the affected side with sparing of the forehead &  eye closure muscles. Weakness or numbness in the arm or leg: Weakness or numbness can occur either on the same side as the facial palsy, or on the opposite side, Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia): Dysphagia secondary to brainstem ischemi

     Q. 1. Define pericardium.  

Ans: it is a conical fibro-serous sac which contains the heart and the roots of great vessels.

Q. 2. Mention the parts of pericardium.

Ans: a) fibrous pericardium

         b) serous pericardium : i) parietal pericardium ii) visceral pericardium

Q. 3.  mention the attachment of fibrous pericardium

Ans: The fibrous pericardium is a conical-shaped sac.

Its apex is fused with the roots of the great vessels and

base is fused with central tendon & a small left muscular part of the diaphragm.

     Q. 4. What is the other name of visceral pericardium?

      Ans: Epicardium

Q.5. Mention the arterial supply of pericardium.

 FFibrous and parietal pericardium are supplied by

·        Pericardio-phrenic artery branch of internal thoracic a ,

·        bronchial & esophageal branch of descending thoracic aorta and

·        branches from inferior phrenic artery

Visceral pericardium is supplied by coronary arteries 

Q. 6. Mention the venous drainage of pericardium.

·        Fibrous and parietal pericardium are drained by azygous veins and internal thoracic veins.  

·        Visceral pericardium is drain by coronary sinus.

Q.   7. Mention the nerve supply of pericardium.

The fibrous pericardium and the parietal part of the pericardium are pain sensitive and supplied by the phrenic nerve (root value: Cervical 3-5).

The visceral pericardium is insensitive; and is supplied by vagus and sympathetic nerves via coronary plexus.

Therefore, the pain from the pericardium originates in the parietal layer only and is transmitted by the phrenic nerve.

Q. 8. What is the function of pericardium?

It protects the heart, prevents over distension and friction during heart contractions

Q. 9. Show the transverse sinus. Tell its boundaries.

Ans. Boundaries:

In front- ascending aorta and pulmonary trunk enclosed in a single layer of serous pericardium.

Behind - Intra pericardial part of superior vena cava and upper portion of atrium and their auricles.

Q.10. Importance of transverse sinus.

           Ans. During cardiac surgery, the transverse pericardial sinus allows a surgeon to isolate the pulmonary trunk and ascending aorta and apply a temporary ligature or clamp.

Q.11. Show oblique sinus. Mention its boundaries.

Ans. It is a cul-de-sac behind the left atrium.

Boundaries

In front - Left atrium.

Behind -Parietal layer of serous peri cardium.

Right side - Right pair of pulmonary vein and inferior vena cava.

Left side - Lest pair of pulmonaryveins.

Q. 12. Tell the importance of oblique sinus.

Ans.   1. It gives space to expose the heart during atrial diastole.

2. It permits pulsation of the left atrium and hence known as cardiac bursa.

 Q.13. Tell the contents of pericardium.

Ans.   a) Heart with caridc vessels & nerves

b) Ascending aorta

c) pulmonary trunk

d) Terminal part of IVC

e) Terminal part of pulmonary veins

Q.14. What is pericardial effusion?

Ans. Collection of fluid in the pericardial cavity is called pericardial effusion.

Q.112. Development of pericardium.

Ans.   a) Fibrous pericardium - From septum transversum.

b) Parietal layer · From somato pleuric layer of lateral plate mesoderm.

c) Visceral layer - From splanchno pleuric layer of lateral plate mesoderm.

 

Q.6. Why the pericardium is closely attached to central tendon of diaphragm?

Ans.   The pericardium and central tendon of diaphragm both are developed from septum transversum.So they are closely attached.

Q.11. Transverse sinus - what it indicates developmentally?

Transverse sinus is developed by the degeneration of the central cells of the dorsal mesocardium.

Q.12. Why the pericardium is connected with sternum?

Ans. Due to both structure are developed from septum transeversum.

Q.13. Name the sites where visceral layer is separated from the heart .

Ans. At the root of great vessel of theheart where they are continuouswith each other.
