The horse may also develop
signs of neurological disease, which are weakness, paralysis of the hind end, urinary dysfunction and the inability to stand.
Let me know if there is a high cereal content in your cat's diet, because this can be a cause
of neurological disease in dogs, notably border terriers.
No one yet knows the cause of the disease but there are some similarities with a group
of neurological diseases caused by the so - called «unconventional slow viruses».
When it comes to neurological disorders, it is vital to learn the warning
signs of neurological disease and pay close attention to the behavior of your companion animal.
«The large number of major failed trials in Alzheimer's is quite frightening,» says Lennart Mucke, director of the Gladstone
Institute of Neurological Disease at the University of California, San Francisco.
But Mucke, director of the Gladstone Institute
of Neurological Disease at the University of California, San Francisco, and colleagues believe they may finally have pinpointed the cause of these puzzling personality twists as well as other cognitive deficits associated with Alzheimer's: petite mal (nonconvulsive) seizures similar to those exhibited in some types of epilepsy.
«But perhaps the most exciting implication is that our tools, when paired with appropriate activity modulator genes, could enable non-invasive deep brain modulation for the treatment
of neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease.»
The NIAID group continues to adapt the RT - QuIC assay to detect additional
types of neurological diseases with greater accuracy using the least invasive patient sample possible — whether that is blood, skin, nasal brushings, or other samples.
While it's known that exercise can boost cognitive function and lessen
symptoms of neurological diseases like depression, stroke, and Alzheimer's disease, the mechanisms underlying these effects are unclear.
The mission of the National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke of NINDS is to reduce the
burden of neurological disease — a burden borne by every age group, by every segment of society, by people all over the world.
Interest in the potential neuroprotective properties of curcumin rose after studies found very low
levels of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's in elderly Indian populations.
Apnea can be voluntarily achieved (i.e., «holding one's breath»), drug - induced (e.g., opiate toxicity), mechanically induced (e.g., strangulation), or it can occur as a
consequence of neurological disease or trauma.
That study tracked the
prevalence of neurological diseases like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, stroke, epilepsy, meningitis, encephalitis, multiple sclerosis, and migraine, both globally and by country.
These findings have broad implications not only for the potential treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, but for further understanding the
impact of neurological disease on metabolism and stress responses throughout the body.
Cyanaocobalamin is the form used in most supplements (it's a little less expensive to manufacture), but methylcobalamin has been found to be the superior, most effective form of vitamin B12, especially for the
prevention of neurological diseases.
«These brain makers are the same across
dozens of neurological diseases, as well as brain trauma, so you can test potential therapies not just for schizophrenia, but for conditions such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, bi-polar disorder, and traumatic brain injuries,» says Gil - da - Costa.
The findings, published in Nature in July, could unearth the
secrets of neurological diseases and disorders, like multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer's, that may involve the immune system.
A separate study that examined 18 years of data on the prevalence
of neurological diseases worldwide concluded that environmental factors may also contribute to disorders like Parkinson's disease.
«This bench to bedside research is very exciting and will have a major impact on the
management of neurological diseases, particularly neuropathic pain,» said Akbar Panju, medical director of the Michael G. DeGroote Institute for Pain Research and Care, a clinician and professor of medicine.
CIVIR's mission is to develop technologies to investigate the dynamic interactions between the immune, vascular and nervous systems as a way to better understand the origins and
progress of neurological diseases.
«This discovery is important not only because it solves a long - standing mystery on the role of Arc in long - term memory formation, but also gives new insight into the homeostatic scaling process itself — disruptions in which have already been implicated in a whole
host of neurological diseases,» said Dr. Finkbeiner.

With Biogen's expertise in neuroscience research and drug development and Ionis» leadership in RNA targeted therapies, the companies plan to advance antisense programs for a broad range
of neurological diseases including dementia, neuromuscular diseases, movement disorders, diseases of the eyes and inner ear, and neuropsychiatry.
