Disorders of the Nervous Tissue

1.6K
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

702
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...

Disorders of the Autonomic Nervous System

815
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is an intricate network of nerves that controls functions such as the regulation of heart rate, digestion, and blood pressure regulation. When this system malfunctions, it can lead to various disorders that affect multiple bodily functions. One common feature of many autonomic disorders is the involvement of smooth blood vessels, which play a crucial role in regulating blood flow throughout the body.

Local Anesthetics: Differential Sensitivity of Nerve Fibers01:24

Local Anesthetics: Differential Sensitivity of Nerve Fibers

929
Local anesthetics (LAs) block the sodium channels of nerve trunks, sensory nerve endings, and neuromuscular junctions. Although LAs can block all kinds of nerves, the sensitivity of nerve fibers differs according to nerve types and structures. LAs are known to block myelinated fibers faster than unmyelinated ones. Also, they block pain or sensory neurons at low concentrations without affecting the motor neurons involved in muscle contractions. This helps relieve labor pain without affecting the...

Chemical Synapses01:26

Chemical Synapses

9.1K
Chemical synapses are specialized sites between two neurons or between a neuron and a non-neuronal cell like a muscle, glandular or sensory cell.
Because chemical synapses depend on the release of neurotransmitter molecules from synaptic vesicles to pass on their signal, there is an approximately one millisecond delay between when the axon potential reaches the presynaptic terminal and when the neurotransmitter leads to opening of postsynaptic ion channels. Additionally, this signaling is...

Peripheral Artery Disease I: Introduction01:30

Peripheral Artery Disease I: Introduction

32
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) predominantly results from atherosclerosis, which involves the accumulation of fatty deposits, or plaques, within the walls of arteries. This causes them to narrow and harden, significantly reducing blood flow. PAD predominantly affects the legs, particularly the arteries supplying the thighs and calves. In rare cases, it may involve other arteries, including those in the arms.Etiology of PAD:The principal cause of PAD is atherosclerosis, which results from fatty...

    Resumen
    Este resumen es generado por máquina.

    Las polineuropatías afectan a más del 5% de los adultos mayores de 55 años, con síntomas como entumecimiento y debilidad. El diagnóstico y el tratamiento tempranos son clave para controlar esta afección neurológica común.

    Área de la Ciencia:

    • Neurología
    • Trastornos del sistema nervioso periférico

    Sus antecedentes:

    • Las polineuropatías son trastornos neurológicos comunes, que afectan al 5-8% de las personas mayores de 55 años.
    • La prevalencia está aumentando debido al envejecimiento de la población, la diabetes mellitus y el uso de drogas neurotóxicas.
    • Estas afecciones implican daño a múltiples nervios periféricos, impactando las funciones motoras, sensoriales o autónomas.

    Objetivo del estudio:

    • Describir las diversas etiologías de las polineuropatías.
    • Presentar un procedimiento de diagnóstico para investigar las causas de la polineuropatía.
    • Destacar la importancia del diagnóstico precoz para el tratamiento y la prevención de complicaciones.

    Principales métodos:

    • Revisión de las causas de la polineuropatía, incluidos los factores metabólicos, tóxicos y genéticos.
    • Descripción de un método de diagnóstico para la investigación etiológica.
    • Consideración de la pérdida de fibra nerviosa relacionada con la edad como un factor contribuyente.

    Principales resultados:

    • Las polineuropatías se manifiestan con síntomas sensoriales (entumecimiento, dolor) y déficits motores (debilidad, alteración de la marcha).
    • Los síntomas a menudo se presentan insidiosamente, típicamente en un "patrón de medias" simétrico que afecta a los pies.
    • Tanto la mielina nerviosa como los axones pueden verse afectados, con diversas causas subyacentes.

    Conclusiones:

    • El diagnóstico precoz de las polineuropatías es crucial para el tratamiento eficaz y la prevención de la progresión de la enfermedad.
    • Un enfoque de diagnóstico sistemático es esencial para identificar la causa subyacente.
    • Los cambios nerviosos relacionados con la edad pueden predisponer a las personas a polineuropatías o exacerbarlas.
