Parrots

Budgerigars | Budgerigar | Parrot

Birds widely distributed in tropical regions and having a distinctive stout curved cered hooked bill whose upper mandible is movably hinged to the skull.

Loss or impairment of the ability to write (letters, syllables, words, or phrases) due to an injury to a specific cerebral area or occasionally due to emotional factors.

Dyslexia

Alexia | Dyslexia, Developmental | Reading Disability, Developmental | Reading Disorder | Reading Disorder, Developmental | Developmental Reading Disorder | Word Blindness | Alexias | Blindness, Word | Blindnesses, Word | Developmental Dyslexia

A cognitive disorder characterized by an impaired ability to comprehend written and printed words or phrases despite intact vision. This condition may be developmental or acquired. Developmental dyslexia is marked by reading achievement that falls substantially below that expected given the individual's chronological age, measured intelligence, and age-appropriate education. The disturbance in reading significantly interferes with academic achievement or with activities of daily living that require reading skills. (From DSM-IV)

Aphasia, Conduction

Aphasia, Associative | Dysphasia, Associative | Dysphasia, Conduction | Associative Aphasia | Associative Dysphasia | Aphasias, Associative | Aphasias, Conduction | Associative Aphasias | Associative Dysphasias | Conduction Aphasia

A type of fluent aphasia characterized by an impaired ability to repeat one and two word phrases, despite retained comprehension. This condition is associated with dominant hemisphere lesions involving the arcuate fasciculus (a white matter projection between Broca's and Wernicke's areas) and adjacent structures. Like patients with Wernicke aphasia (APHASIA, WERNICKE), patients with conduction aphasia are fluent but commit paraphasic errors during attempts at written and oral forms of communication. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p482; Brain & Bannister, Clinical Neurology, 7th ed, p142; Kandel et al., Principles of Neural Science, 3d ed, p848)
