The demyelinating form of Guillain-Barre syndrome destroys the protective covering of the peripheral nerves (myelin sheath), preventing the nerves from transmitting signals to the brain. Guillain-Barré syndrome can occur in children, but the number of people who develop the syndrome increases as peop...
The discovery of adult neurogenesis and of stem cells in the brain has changed our view of the mature brain. Though we now know that the adult brain can make new neurons, it normally does so only in two privileged regions, the olfactory ... KA Jellinger - 《European Journal of Neurology...
This includes infectious processes, benign and malignant tumours, traumatic lesions, metabolic disorders, demyelinating diseases and many more. Many neurological diseases cause lesions (a lesion is an area of abnormality in the brain or spinal cord), which can be analysed in detail. Important factors...
We purposefully did not include in this review MOG-IgG associated disorder (MOGAD) as, even though some of these patients can present with encephalitic manifestations, such as ADEM or cortical encephalitis, most patients present a demyelinating phenotype. Recently, radiological features of MOGAD ...
or indirectly by measuring changes of disability scores which especially depend on gray matter damage [146,147,148]. Moreover, advanced imaging techniques such as magnetisation transfer ratio and diffusion tensor imaging [142] are both somewhat non-specific and can be influenced by changes in water...
anything about HTLV. Some say it is catastrophic and others told me it was nothing. The research is not accurate, either. I have HTLV-2 and do not fall into any of their categories for how I got it. My feeling is doctors should stop focusing on how you got it. It does not help ...
Likewise, moderate impairments in overall ToM have also been found in multiple sclerosis (MS) an immune-mediated demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (with no differences between its subtypes). This impairment might be explained by white matter damage in MS [27]. In general, all ...
