Central nervous system lyme disease
Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2004Nervous system infection with Borrelia burgdorferi frequently causes meningitis and rarely causes encephalomyelitis. Altered cognitive function also can occur in the absence of central nervous system infection. Recently developed serodiagnostic tools, such as the C6 assay, and appropriate use of Western blotting promise to improve diagnostic accuracy ...

Neurogenesis in Diseases of the Central Nervous System
Stem Cells and Development, 2006Neurogenesis is altered in ageing, and diseases of the central nervous system (CNS) such as neurodegenerative disorders. We discuss the process of neurogenesis, its relevance for disorders of the CNS, the dynamic nature of neurogenesis, how and why it may be abnormal in ageing, and disease, and possibilities to ameliorate abnormal neurogenesis in ...

Viral Diseases of the Central Nervous System
Topics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2005Viral diseases of the central nervous system encompass a wide range of different processes, mainly inflammation affecting the brain (encephalitis), the meninges (meningitis), or a combined meningoencephalitis. The spinal cord can be affected as well (myelitis).

Parasitic diseases of the central nervous system
Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology, 2010Parasitic infections, though endemic to certain regions, have over time appeared in places far removed from their original sites of occurrence facilitated probably by the increase in world travel and the increasing migration of people from their native lands to other, often distant, countries.

Granulomatous Diseases of the Central Nervous System
Topics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2005Infectious diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), particularly those accompanied by the formation of granulomas, are a constant diagnostic challenge in some specific regions of the world, above all in developing countries. The pattern of image seen on CT or MR scan is the result of the inter-relations between the individual characteristics of ...

Vertigo With Diseases of the Central Nervous System
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1967VERTIGO is a very specific condition in which the environment or the patient himself seems to rotate. It is purely subjective, but may be associated with objective signs. Patients usually refer to vertigo as dizziness. However, dizziness is a vague, indefinite term which patients may use to refer to many other conditions.

The Complement System in Central Nervous System Diseases
Immunologic Research, 2001The activation of complement system is an important factor participating in inflammatory, neurodegenerative, and cerebrovascular diseases. Astrocytes and neurons are able to synthesize complement components. Myelin and oligodendrocyte (OLG) activate the classical pathway of complement in vitro in the absence of antibodies. Sublytic C5b-9 in the absence

Whipple's disease of the central nervous system
2010Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnosis, and management of the Whipple's disease of the central nervous system (CNS). CNS involvement in Whipple's disease occurs in three circumstances: (1) neurological involvement with systemic disease, (2) neurological relapse in patients ...
