Disorders of the Nervous Tissue

1.4K
Nervous tissue is a vital component of the human body's communication system, enabling us to perceive and respond to stimuli. However, like all other tissues, it is vulnerable to disorders and diseases that can significantly impact our neurological functioning.

Parkinson's Disease: Overview

644
Neurodegenerative disorders are progressive diseases that cause irreversible damage and loss to neurons in specific brain areas. Examples of these disorders include Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). These disorders share characteristics such as proteinopathies, selective neuronal vulnerability, and a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. The primary therapeutic goal for these conditions is...

Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

Psychosurgery

91
Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.
Historical Development of Psychosurgery
In the 1930s, Portuguese neurologist Antonio Egas Moniz introduced a surgical procedure designed...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Neurology
  • Neuroscience
  • Psychiatry

Background:

  • Functional neurological disorder (FND) is a prevalent condition in children and adolescents.
  • Understanding of FND has evolved, necessitating updated knowledge on pediatric cases.
  • Existing literature on pediatric FND is limited, requiring a focused review.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive update on pediatric functional neurological disorder.
  • To synthesize current knowledge on FND etiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis in young individuals.
  • To address the specific needs of the pediatric FND population.

Main Methods:

  • Literature search of PubMed and SCOPUS databases.
  • Review of 85 articles focusing on pediatric FND.
  • Analysis of findings from functional and high-resolution MRI studies.

Main Results:

  • Neuroimaging reveals abnormal connectivity and structural changes in pediatric FND patients.
  • Diagnostic criteria now emphasize a rule-in approach, moving away from requiring a psychological factor.
  • Multidisciplinary team support and clear diagnosis communication are key treatment components.
  • Pediatric FND shows potential for better outcomes compared to adults.

Conclusions:

  • Pediatric functional neurological disorder is a significant health issue with unique patient needs.
  • Updated diagnostic and treatment strategies can improve outcomes for children and adolescents with FND.
  • Further research is needed to fully elucidate pediatric FND.
