The Basal Ganglia and Stuttering

本文回顾了口吃和基底神经节功能障碍之间关系的相关文献,从基底神经节的时间线索功能缺陷、基底神经节运动环路的损伤、多巴胺系统异常等三个方面系统探讨了口吃者基底神经节功能障碍的机制。

The importance of the basal ganglia in stuttering has been paid much more attention in recent years. This paper first reviews literatures on the relation between stuttering and dysfunction of the basal ganglia, and then systematically discusses the mechanism of dysfunction of the basal ganglia in stuttering from the following three aspects： impaired ability of the basal ganglia to produce timing cues, basal ganglia circuits lesions, and the abnormity of dopamine systems.
