Neuro-Trophic Disease

Neuro-neutrophilic disease: neuro-Behçet disease and neuro-Sweet disease.

“Neuro-Sweet disease (NSD)” was proposed as a distinct entity of encephalomeningitis in 1999 (1). Sweet disease has been considered as a multisystem inflammatory disorder characterized by painful erythematous plaques, and has been classified as a dermatologic disease. The plaques respond to systemic corticosteroids, and heal without scarring. It has been disclosed that aseptic neutrophilic infl...

Uraemic and trophic deaths following leucotomy: Neuro-anatomical findings.

Little has been published concerning the occurrence of delayed operative death after bilateral prefrontal leucotomy. The term " delayed operative death" in relation to leucotomy was introduced by Meyer and McLardy (1948; 1949) in analysing undesirable clinical sequele suffered by patients submitted to leucotomy who had survived the danger of fatal operative haemorrhage, and whose brains had in ...

Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease using Neuro-fuzzy-based Method

Background & Aim: Coronary artery disease is one of the most common diseases in different societies. Coronary angiography is established as one of the best methods for diagnosis of this disease. Angiography is an invasive and costly method. Furthermore, it is associated with risks such as death, heart attack, and stroke. Thus, this study introduces a neuro-fuzzy-based method which can help the ...

Neuro-Behçet's Disease with Chorea.

Behçet's disease (BD) was described as a three-symptom complex comprising uveitis, oral aphthae, and genital ulcerations. It is a multisystemic, recurrent, inflammatory disorder and it is of unknown cause. Neuro-Behçet (NB) is present in 5%-7% of BD. Movement disorders have rarely been reported in NB. Here, we report a case of chronic parenchymal NB presenting with chorea.
