When I knew this organ though but it is kinda like the exaggerated Tubarial glands because it is found within the WALDEYER's ring anatomy (google that for non medical peoples) so yeah... maybe it's an old gland, i think it's new physiologically and not anatomically.

Lo interesante es que antes de vomitar el canal de sodio y potasio se abre y hace producir saliva de inmediato en abundancia, la razón por la que quizás no se encontraba este órgano nuevo es que, tenga que ver con estar entre nariz y garganta por lo que muestran, entonces sería cosa de ver en otros simios similitudes o si es solo de esta especie, además de su actividad antes del vómito y neurosensores que hagan de liberar esos químicos de alivio después de vomitar, creo pues saben más los biólogos y médicos, magos blancos, sugerencia y obvservaciones.

My mother had surgery across that area in the 60's. After the surgery, her incision would leak every time she ate. Her doctors called it "her imagination ", and looked disdainfully at her every time she reported it. Until she died in 1997, every time she ate, she'd wipe her neck and say, "there goes my imagination!". This post is for you, Mom!💡❤

My grandpa had surgery on his jaw/cheek/etc by his ear. After he was healed, where his sideburns would be would salivate while he was eating. It was wild. The doctors told him it's wasn't saliva because we supposedly didn't have salivary glands in that area. This makes so much sense.

My dad had a severe car accident and I had to have a lot of his face reconstructed. Not all of it worked out well as he always leaked saliva on the outside of his face right where this new gland is. People would often think he was sweating when he ate. No doctor could explained why he would leak there. I guess because they didn’t think there was a gland there.

As someone who is both a neuroscience/genetics geek and a sufferer of generalized anxiety disorder, I've always been highly interested in the neurological basis of mental disorders. I always thought it was hyperactivity of the amygdala that caused anxiety, so when I saw this video saying it was hyperactivity of the sgACC, my curiosity was piqued. I looked into some neuroanatomy and wouldn't you know it, the sgACC feeds directly into the amygdala. As an input! To borrow a term from my actual career as a software developer, this seems to suggest that anxiety disorders -- or at least GAD -- might be a case of GIGO: Garbage In, Garbage Out. In other words, the amygdala isn't the problem, it's just getting garbage input from the sgACC. Now I feel bad... all these years I've been angry at my amygdala, and the poor thing was trying its best and just working with bad data!

@Afrodisiac It could be simple in the concepts of the universe, we just don't know where to even start. What we tend to consider as simple tends to be activities that we're just used to doing or have trained ourselves to do to the point where we gain confidence for the next time we deal with said problem. Figuring out how to make computers wasn't simple back in the day, but now we pump out smart devices like water. Finding out how the brain truly works could end up becoming like this, where once we truly find out, there's no turning back, and then progress only gets faster from there on out. Just a thought.

@@turtle_goddess9522 TL;DR: The amygdala processes fear, so anxiety is often linked to an overactive amygdala. The sgACC gives the amygdala some of its data to work with. So this research suggests that anxiety is a result of the sgACC giving the amygdala incorrect (hyperactive) data rather than a direct problem with amygdala itself. It's like if someone tells you there's a serial killer around the corner and you run away, only to find out that it was just a cat there. The problem isn't that YOU were chicken, it's that someone gave you bad information about how scary the situation was.

They found a muscle in the face a decade or so ago that has been missed for 500 years. They missed it because of the way centuries of doctors had been taught to open up the face because of the impediment of connective tissues. They found the muscle using what was essentially a bandsaw instead of a scalpel. Cutting into the body is hard and anatomist follow the same paths through tissues generation after generation.

@@josephcrespo7822 Classical singers (meaning those of us like OP who study voice in the context of classical music performance) usually take at least one course in which we study the anatomy and physiology of singing. Our teachers who have this knowledge teach us how to properly use our bodies down to the finest detail as well as avoid injury - the body is a singer’s instrument. Opera singers never use microphones or other artificial amplification, and have careers spanning actual decades. It isn’t all volume at all - we use the principles of acoustics to do that. Yes, acoustics as in the physics of sound! It’s actually a very involved process requiring many years of study to understand and develop such an intimate understanding of one’s body, and learn to control and manipulate the necessary parts to achieve this feat. Placement of resonance in the cavities of the head, shape of the mouth, position of the tongue, breath control - its kind of a lot! If those glands were affecting the shape of the pharyngeal space it could have a profound effect on the sound produced with the voice, because it alters the shape of and passage of air through that resonant space. A singer who doesn’t know about that might develop a bad habit that could at the least keep them from producing the needed resonance, and at worst cause damage to the body. Say those glands are getting in the way of the air stream because of illness or theirs are just a bit larger than most - a young singer might compensate by forcing too much air through the larynx, or over-lift the soft palate. It becomes a waste of energy, but also can cause muscle tension leading to injuries, or strain and overwork the vocal folds which can lead to development of scarring and nodules. Oh yeah, and we do all this while studying the phonetics of foreign languages so we don’t sound like the guys in Inglourious Basterds attempting to speak Italian while attempting to act out a dramatic story.

As someone who suffers from anxiety with depressive qualities, I googled where the sgacc was located in the brain. I find it funny that when I know I am having anxiety I can physically feel the anxiety/depression rolling down my head like someone is pulled a blind down from the top of my head across my forehead and back in towards the amygdala. Makes me wonder if the other parts of the brain are sending the signals down to the sgac and on to the amygdala and I'm more sensitive than others and can actually feel it going on......

I’m autistic and I believe I have very sensitive interoception and I can feel stuff like that too! When I have anxiety or I’m getting pms I swear I can literally feel the hormones buzzing around in my brain! It’s such a weird sensation because I’m experiencing certain moods but I’m extremely aware of this physical sensation of the emotional hormones (or menstrual hormones) buzzing through my brain and my body and so it feels almost separate to me. Like they’re not /my/ emotions they’re just something that’s happening to me physically in my brain!

I wish SciShow would do an episode on cancer cures. "There's no cure for cancer" is an OUTDATED statement. We have cures for some kinds of cancers now, and people commonly don't seem to know this. I didn't even know until I was diagnosed. They were gonna "cure" it, but then they found my cancer had spread, so it's stage 4. I'm fine, they say I may be headed for remission. Chemo is also different nowadays. I take a daily oral pill for chemo. Cancer treatments have come a long way. LOL, one Trump supporter even said to me, "you'll be dead soon anyway," and I had to laugh because people live with some kinds of cancer longer than ever lately! Donating to medical research isn't the "waste of money" some people would have you think. They're ALWAYS making new discoveries!

And a few years back they discovered the mesentery, which holds your intestines and other abdominal organs together. Additionally they only just realized that the appendix might have an important role in digestion (providing a home for your gut Flora in the event of them getting flushed out). Just got to keep looking!

Since it's possible - and in fact quite common - to have both anxiety and depression at the same time, I doubt underactivation could be a significant trigger or contributing cause to depression. This does, however, explain why cognitive therapy works so well for anxiety for some people. We learn to override the indicators the sgACC is giving us, in the same way that a person can learn to ignore a steady noise or constant smell. It doesn't work at all for some people, of course, just as some are unable to ignore a constant sensory input. Humans are complex.

Interesting. I've had dry mouth, a little swallowing and jaw movement difficulties, since getting Bell's Palsy on the left side of my face a long time ago (nerve pain from that also travelled down to just on my collarbone). I also had a perfectly good molar removed because of constant pain on that side. Suspecting that it was caused by nerve impingement or damage. Also had a weird hearing impairment from the Bell's Palsy, which significantly affected my recognition of people's voices over the phone, for some considerable time. I could hear what they were saying, but didn't have a clue who they were for the first minute or so, which didn't endear me to my then employers or any subsequent employer, who always insisted that I answer the phones (good phone manners and speaking voice lol). That has abated and is now improved somewhat, but now if someone has a strong accent or talks very quickly, my processing of what they're saying isn't optimal for that first minute...still sometimes have to get them to slow down or repeat. Ah well.

Hey hun, I have been diagnosed with hemicrania continua after 10 years of trying to get a correct diagnosis. Have you ever heard of this condition? I was diagnosed with Bell's Palsy over and over again, but what happens for me is that the right side of my face "droops" like Bell's Palsy when my condition flares up. This is interesting to me, bc my condition flares up more bc of stressful situations and I have had and continue to have a very difficult life with lots of psychological and physical trauma. I'm diagnosed with PTSD, MDD and GAD as well. They treated me at the University of MN and the best thing that seemed to work for me was botox, CGRP meds and pain meds, although my insurance won't cover them all and it's a rare condition so there aren't many studies and even many Dr written appeals don't help. The best was CGRP though if I had to pick and I did get some pain meds through a pain clinic on the side but if I did botox I had to pay out of pocket. I'm actually pregnant right now and have to be off all of it, but it's actually not as bad right now. I was in a group on FB and pain levels do tend to go down during pregnancy thankGod, some days are still unbearable. Just thought you might wanna check it out if it fits you too. Take care.

FINALLY! These are the glands I've been trying to convince my otolaryngologist exist since I have an aggravating little tonsil stone that keeps rubbing against one of them and making it get inflamed! I've been like, "Dude, there's a gland here. I squeeze it and saliva comes out. It's a salivary gland." And he's like, "Nope! Literature says nothing there!" And this is why you cannot just blindly trust the 'experts'. They have blinders on the same as everyone else when they're stuck on dogma. Just remember: a mere 20 years ago, the best astronomers were still suggesting extrasolar planets were rare, and planets around multiple star systems and red dwarfs were highly unlikely. Now we know planets are EVERYWHERE!! And it's very rare to find a system WITHOUT planets! Red dwarfs may have the most planets of all! Terrestrial planets are as common as dirt itself! Multiple star system of even up to 4 stars could have planets in stable orbits! See, the science is NOT SET IN STONE. New discoveries can change EVERYTHING OVERNIGHT. When they try to convince you otherwise, it's a RELIGIOUS-type belief, and NOT a scientific one. There is one tenet of science the ideologists ignore: we must always allow for the chance the science is wrong.

That doesn’t make it right, just neutral - it hasn’t been proved wrong. That doesn’t make science ‘weak’ it just helps prevent charlatans and allows for progress by peer review. Try telling that to a conservative, regardless of political leaning, who always believes they’re right. Ignorance is its own trap.

My panicking can get so bad it makes my entire body hurt along with my mind just constantly racing. If they can find a way to deal with panic disorders/depression/OCD disorders and so on that would do wonders for some of us who’s fears/emotions are so debilitating it makes us unable to live our daily lives without overthinking and stressing everything.*
