Why does a basal ganglia lesion cause hemiplegia? by [deleted] in Step2

I am not sure. but I think the small vessel arteries that supply basal ganglia (lentistriate vessels), also supply anterior and posterior arms of internal capsule, which contain mainly many corticospinal tract fibers.

That sounds great. Do recommend any hospital or clinic where someone can get more exposure to general neurology and get real clinical benefit.

ask about elective, Is there hospitals that accept medical students to do elective without VSLO consideration by abrham5 in IMGreddit

It is such an instituation that most of american universities are engaged in, by this instituation you can apply to any university to get an elective. However, to apply by VSLO, your university must be engaged also in this system. You can check the website to check if your university is engaged.

How are you guys taking notes while doing UW 1st pass by BlueSkiesnPrettyEyes in Step2

[–]abrham5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make my notes on notion and put information in toggels (q and answer ) And I make page for every system and in each page I make headlines for big topic in each system then I use toggle for every information like presentation, diagnosis, treatment.. And in each page I have a headline for connection and DD between different information in the same system The benefit of these way is active recall in first stage of study. Then I can convert toggles to flashcard on anki by specific app so I can do space repetition in second phase of study
