Ten of 31 patients (32%) had antibodies to nuclear antigens. They were not related to the extent or severity of disease but were often associated with other complications or ...

Neurologic Manifestations of Progressive Systemic Sclerosis
Archives of Neurology, 1992Neurologic involvement in progressive systemic sclerosis is considered uncommon. We retrospectively examined the prevalence and nature of neurologic complications in 50 patients with progressive systemic sclerosis. In 20 (40%), neurologic abnormalities were detected, with a total of 28 neurologic manifestations. All levels of the central and peripheral

The American Journal of Medicine, 1982Trigeminal neuropathy was identified in 16 (4 percent) of 442 consecutive patients with progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS) who were first evaluated during the period between 1972 and 1980. These cases, together with 25 others that are adequately documented in the literature, were reviewed and compared with the 426 cases of PSS (96 percent) without ...

Progressive Systemic Sclerosis (Scleroderma)
Postgraduate Medicine, 1962The term “progressive systemic sclerosis” is preferred to “scleroderma,” since the skin is not always involved at first and rarely is not involved at all, even in fatal cases. Organic involvement is widespread. There is no satisfactory treatment, but there are measures which moderate the inexorable and fatal course of the disease, and certainly ...
