Sensory neuronopathy is thought to involve 40% of neuropathies in Sjogren's syndrome and 5% of all cases of Sjogren's overall, it is usually subacute in onset. Other immune mediated causes of sensory neuronopathy include systemic lupus erythematosus, autoimmune hepatitis and celiac disease. [4] Toxin exposure can also lead to sensory ...
Peripheral neuropathy may be classified according to the number and distribution of nerves affected (mononeuropathy, mononeuritis multiplex, or polyneuropathy), the type of nerve fiber predominantly affected (motor, sensory, autonomic), or the process affecting the nerves; e.g., inflammation (), compression (compression neuropathy), chemotherapy (chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy).
Neuronopathy is the result of issues in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) neurons. They may be caused by motor neurone diseases , sensory neuronopathies , toxins, or autonomic dysfunction. Neurotoxins such as chemotherapy agents may cause neuronopathies.
Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies (HMSN) is a name sometimes given to a group of different neuropathies which are all characterized by their impact upon both afferent and efferent neural communication. HMSN are characterised by atypical neural development and degradation of neural tissue. The two common forms of HMSN are either ...
Medical history - this will include any previous diagnoses or disorders, triggers or symptoms that usually arise, and other factors such as work environment and social habits etc. [4] Physical and neurological exams - the doctor will examine the patient to see if any other diseases or disorders have developed over time, and if it effects the ...
Cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) is an autosomal recessive late-onset heredodegenerative multisystem neurological disease. The symptoms include poor balance and difficulty walking.
Congenital distal spinal muscular atrophy (cDSMA), also known as distal hereditary motor neuropathy (or neuronopathy) type VIII (dHMN8), is a hereditary medical condition characterized by muscle wasting (), particularly of distal muscles in legs and hands, and by early-onset contractures (permanent shortening of a muscle or joint) of the hip, knee, and ankle.
This is a list of major and frequently observed neurological disorders (e.g., Alzheimer's disease), symptoms (e.g., back pain), signs (e.g., aphasia) and syndromes (e ...
