Objective. To investigate the features of the clinical course of experimental demyelinating pathology as a model of multiple sclerosis in rats in different trimesters of pregnancy. Material and methods. We used 48 nonlinear white female rats to study an effect of pregnancy on susceptibility to and clinical features of demyelinating pathology. Results and сonclusion. Severity of disease was shown to be a priority risk factor of pregnancy, which is realized depending on the period of gestation. An increase of representation and aggravation of the reproductive pathology during modeling of multiple sclerosis in II trimester indicates a risk of relapse in the late periods of reproduction cycle, derogates the idea about total retentive influence of pregnancy on the development of demyelinating events.

Encephalitis ll: Pathophysiology

Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain parenchyma caused by direct viral invasion or immune-mediated mechanisms triggered by infections or tumors. Both processes lead to neuronal injury, disrupted neurotransmission, and diverse neurological symptoms, often with overlapping clinical and pathological features.Autoimmune EncephalitisIn autoimmune encephalitis, antibodies target neuronal antigens on cell surfaces, synapses, or within neurons. A key example is anti-NMDAR encephalitis, which can...

Encephalitis l: Introduction

Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain parenchyma, most often due to infections or autoimmune processes. It presents with neuropsychiatric features such as fever, altered mental status, behavioral changes, cognitive dysfunction, seizures, focal deficits, and sometimes autonomic instability. In some cases, the meninges are also involved, resulting in meningoencephalitis.Infectious CausesInfectious encephalitis is most commonly viral but can also result from bacterial, fungal, or parasitic...
