<h3>What is Wernicke?</h3>
Wernicke's encephalopathy is a degenerative condition of the brain brought on by thiamine deficiency (vitamin B1). It can be brought on by excessive drinking, nutritional deficits, chronic vomiting, eating problems, or side effects from chemotherapy. The thalamus and hypothalamus of the brain are harmed by B1 deficiency. Confusion and a loss of mental activity are among the signs of Wernicke encephalopathy, which can lead to coma and death. Ataxia, a loss of motor coordination, can lead to leg tremor. Vision changes such as double vision, drooping eyelids, and irregular eye movements (called nystagmus).
Wernicke encephalopathy is reversible, whereas Korsakoff syndrome is not, despite the fact that the two disorders are sometimes clubbed together as a single syndrome (Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome). The two conditions are independent entities with different manifestations.
Hence, Wernicke's area exists active when speech is heard and comprehended.
