Through these properties, the muscular system as a whole performs several important functions. These include the production of force and movement, support of body stature and position, stability of joints, production of body heat (to maintain normal body temperature), as well as, provision of form...
Lower motor neuron diseases,such as spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), affect only the lower motor neurons. This makes muscles floppy or flaccid, which makes them weak and sometimes causes them to twitch uncontrollably. The most common MND isamyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease)...
This form is much less common than ALS or PBP. It can be inherited or sporadic. Progressive muscular atrophy mainly affects your lower motor neurons. Weakness usually starts in your hands and then spreads to other parts of the body. Your muscles get weak and may cramp. This disease can tur...
Anuclear cataractis cloudiness in the "core" of your lens. It's one of the most common types of cataracts. The center of your lens turns yellow and gets harder as you age. This is a normal part of the aging process callednuclear sclerosis. If it gets severe enough, it becomes a nucl...

muscular dystrophy, dermatomyositis, myasthenia gravis, scleroderma (systemic sclerosis), and Sjogren's syndrome. Diseases specific to the esophagus also can cause difficulty swallowing. Some esophageal diseases include: achalasia, an uncommon inability of the lower esophageal sphincter (the valve at the ...
