A study of movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease can provide an indication of the motor functions of the basal ganglia. Basal-ganglia diseases affect voluntary movement and can cause involuntary movement. Deficits are often manifested during the coordination of fine multi-joint movements (e.g., handwriting). The disturbances of motor control (e.g. akinesia, bradykinesia) caused by basal-ganglia disorders are illustrated. Data suggest that the basal ganglia play an important role in the automatic execution of serially ordered complex movements.
对帕金森病和亨廷顿病等运动障碍的研究可以为基底神经节的运动功能提供一个指标。基底神经节疾病会影响自主运动,并可能导致不自主运动。缺陷通常在精细的多关节运动协调过程中表现出来(例如书写)。文中阐述了由基底神经节疾病引起的运动控制障碍(如运动不能、运动迟缓)。数据表明,基底神经节在连续有序的复杂运动的自动执行中起着重要作用。
