Talk:Globus pallidus

=Homology=

Untitled
The assessement that "The external segment of the globus pallidus (Gpe) in primates is homologous to GP in non-primates, whereas their internal segment corresponds to the entopeduncular nucleus in non-primates" is incorrect, even false. There is some provocation to assess that the situation would be more clear in non-primate where there is no medial part! Such possitions would lead to the fact that no progress can be made in the redaction of this article and no useful pathophysiological comparisons. --Gerard.percheron 15:02, 21 June 2006 (UTC)user:gerard.percheron

=Again= This commentary remains true. I do not understand why the poor first version, with no care about corections, is again proposed. There is no interest to continue to link the pallidum with the putamen. This is simply misleading, replacing the description one century ago.--Gerard.percheron 13:17, 9 July 2006 (UTC)gerard.percheron

Current edits by anon feel like nonsense, but I am too ignorant of the subject to know. Could someone look them over? ThanksDlohcierekim 12:33, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Added hopefully an expert will notice it in a timely manner and fix it.
 * I don't think that there are any actual errors in the additions, but they are poorly written and, in my opinion, at too complex a level for a general encyclopedia like Wikipedia. JeremyA 14:04, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Completely over my head. Perhaps someone could bring this down to the level of a simple layman????Dlohcierekim 14:14, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
 * OK, I had a go at a copyedit, which pretty much ended up being a revert of the anons edits. I'll maybe do a more detailed edit later.   JeremyA 14:21, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

=Pallidum?= It looks like the first sentence of this article say that the terms "pallidum" and "globus pallidus" are the same thing. Globus pallidus is dorsal pallidum and ventral pallidum comprises nucleus basalis in substantia innominata. Maybe this should be addressed...(unsigned comment)

That's interesting - although it appears that the first sentence has been removed, I thought that the Globus pallidus and the Pallidum were the same thing though maybe I'm wrong. According to this the nucleus basalis is part of the substantia innominata. The ventral pallidum has certainly been named in some high profile research papers. 194.83.141.231 (talk) 11:10, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Pacemaker?
I think the section on the GP "pacemaker" is too short, and the explanation it links to seems too technical for those unfamiliar with/beginning to study neuroanatomy. Patients and lay people may think this has something to do with cardiac pacemakers without a simple explanation. Could this benefit from a simple explanation before linking to the in-depth article?
