There were no deaths, no failures of the autologous blood cell grafts transfected with the missing ABCD1 gene that characterize the disease, and no reported graft-versus-host disease, he said in a presentation at the American Academy of Neurology annual [medpagetoday.com]

A few children have normal intelligence, in which case the main symptom is severe motor function impairment presenting in childhood. [wilhelmfoundation.org]

This condition tends to present in one of two ways. Firstly, it may present as disordered behavior (usually either with disinhibited behavior or with apathy). [dartmouth.edu]

These treatments may involve diet, special dietary supplements, pharmacological agents and transplants. [kennedykrieger.org]

Specifically, all patients remained free of major functional disabilities post-treatment with Lenti-D. [medpagetoday.com]

The studies covered a wide variety of licensed and unlicensed smoking cessation medications, comparing the treatments with placebo, and the three main treatments with each other. [jpost.com]

Proven to improve cognition and slow memory loss, it's a popular treatment for older people experiencing memory impairment. Now a team headed by Prof. Gil Ast and Dr. [sciencedaily.com]

MRS has proven to be a powerful complementary tool to MRI for the diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression and response to treatment because it can detect changes in cell density, cell type, and biochemical composition, not just structural changes [books.google.com]

As the population in the developed world continues to age, neuroimaging for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases becomes increasingly important and there has been a recent surge of clinical and pre-clinical applications [books.google.com]

This approach may provide increased accuracy for clinicians when discussing a patient’s prognosis; thereby assisting affected individuals in making important decisions for their future,” Dr Philpott said. [monash.edu]

Affected individuals should talk to their physician and medical team about their specific case, associated symptoms and overall prognosis. [rarediseases.org]

The prognosis depends on the severity of the spasticity and the underlying disorder(s). TD is a muscle disorder that results from prolonged exposure to some types of antipsychotic and neuroleptic medications. [aans.org]

Abstract Background Neurodegenerative diseases (ND) consist of divers affections of the central nervous system related to etiology, localization, and of course of the disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

However, we are still left with a large number of progressive diseases of unknown etiology, and their classification is based on pathologic and clinical findings. [dartmouth.edu]

Methods Based on epidemiological data, the current neurological bibliography of ND has been considered. Additional ophthalmological data containing age-related retinal diseases were included in a comparative manner. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiologic and a few prospective studies suggest that there may be some element of inflammation in the condition and some have suggested excess oxidation as a contributing factor. [dartmouth.edu]

More information about the gene products and understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms will open the way to specific treatments. The most common degenerative disease is Alzheimer's disease and the second most frequent is Parkinson's disease. [neuropathology-web.org]

As time passes, it is quite likely that the specific biochemical and pathophysiological processes underpinning many of these diseases will be elucidated and their classifications will change. [dartmouth.edu]

In this paper, authors contended that Alzheimer prevention starts with marijuana. That’s right, the conclusion drawn is that chemical compounds in cannabis can be used to prevent the onset of the brain disease. [intellectualtakeout.org]

This could open the door to new ways of treating these devastating conditions that intervene early enough to prevent some of the most devastating effects or that even change the course of the disease. [valleysleepcenter.com]

Learn ways that tremor used to prevent a man from certain activities until DBS improved his daily life. New research suggests that language tests could aid early diagnosis of debilitating dementia. [brainfacts.org]

Future studies should investigate phosphatidylserine's potential to prevent symptoms of such neurodegenerative diseases, they write. The next step is to test phosphatidylserine in randomized human clinical trials. [medicaldaily.com]
