Peripheral nervous system manifestations of rheumatological diseases
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2021Rheumatological diseases result in immune-mediated injury to not only connective tissue, but often components of the peripheral nervous system. These overlap conditions can be broadly categorized as peripheral neuropathies and overlap myositis. The peripheral neuropathies are distinctive as many have unusual presentations such as non-length-dependent ...

Autoimmune diseases of the peripheral nervous system
Autoimmunity Reviews, 2012Autoimmune-mediated diseases targeting the peripheral nerve represent a group of disorders often associated with high clinical disability. At present, therapeutic options are limited. The application of innovative and cutting-edge technologies to the study of immune-mediated disorders of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) have generated a better ...

Amyloid and peripheral nervous system disease
Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 1994The peripheral nervous system can be involved in the following amyloid deposition diseases. (1) Amyloid deposition composed of beta 2-microglobulin in patients on long term hemodialysis causing a carpal tunnel syndrome; (2) deposition of light chain immunoglobulin derived amyloid leading to polyneuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome and autonomic nervous ...

Gene Therapy for Peripheral Nervous System Diseases
Current Gene Therapy, 2007Peripheral nerve diseases, also known as peripheral neuropathies, affect 15-20 million of Americans and diabetic neuropathy is the most common condition. Currently, the treatment of peripheral neuropathies is more focused on managing pain rather than providing permissive conditions for regeneration.

Neurologic Manifestations of Systemic Disease: Peripheral Nervous System
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2020The impact that systemic disease has on the peripheral nervous system is vast. Polyneuropathies due to these disorders fall into broad categories including metabolic diseases, nutritional deficiencies, rheumatological diseases, infectious diseases, and malignancy-associated disorders.

Peripheral Nervous System Involvement in Patients With Behçet Disease
The Neurologist, 2007Central nervous system involvement in Behçet disease (BD) has been well documented, but studies evaluating peripheral nervous system involvement are relatively uncommon.The aim of this study is to evaluate the frequency and characteristics of peripheral nervous system involvement in BD.Sixty-nine BD patients (36 women, 33 men) followed by neurology and

Lyme disease and the peripheral nervous system
Muscle & Nerve, 2003AbstractLyme disease, the multisystem infectious disease caused by the tick‐borne spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, causes a broad variety of peripheral nerve disorders, including single or multiple cranial neuropathies, painful radiculopathies, and diffuse polyneuropathies. Virtually all appear to be varying manifestations of a mononeuropathy multiplex.

Central and Peripheral Nervous System Diseases
2007Immune diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system constitute an heterogeneous group of disorders which share a significative implication of the immune system in pathophysiology. Multiple sclerosis (MS), Guillain Barre syndrome (GBS) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) are considered of autoimmune origin, with an ...
