Of those who have residual symptoms after PRES, this is attributable largely to hemorrhage. [1] [4] Non-resolution of MRI abnormalities has been linked with poorer outcomes. [4] The presence of brain hemorrhage and cytotoxic edema (brain edema with concomittant brain tissue damage) is also associated with a poor prognosis. [2]
Lordosis is historically defined as an abnormal inward curvature of the lumbar spine. [1] [2] However, the terms lordosis and lordotic are also used to refer to the normal inward curvature of the lumbar and cervical regions of the human spine. [3] [4] Similarly, kyphosis historically refers to abnormal convex curvature of the spine.
In 1989, criteria for an SPS diagnosis were adopted that included episodic axial stiffness, progression of stiffness, lordosis, and triggered spasms. [40] The name of the disease was shifted from "stiff-man syndrome" to the gender-neutral "stiff-person syndrome" in 1991. [40] In 1963, diazepam was determined to help alleviate symptoms of SPS. [7]
Lordosis behavior (/ l ɔːr ˈ d oʊ s ɪ s / [1]), also known as mammalian lordosis (Greek lordōsis, from lordos "bent backward" [1]) or presenting, is the naturally occurring body posture for sexual receptivity to copulation present in females of most mammals including rodents, elephants, cats, and humans.
Depending on the type and severity of encephalopathy, common neurological symptoms are loss of cognitive function, subtle personality changes, and an inability to concentrate. Other neurological signs may include dysarthria , hypomimia , problems with movements (they can be clumsy or slow), ataxia , tremor . [ 6 ]
Swayback, also known clinically as lordosis, [1] refers to abnormally bent postures in the backs of humans and of quadrupeds, especially horses. Extreme lordosis can cause physical damage to the spinal cord and associated ligaments and tendons [1] which can lead to severe pain. In horses, moderate lordosis does not generally impact an animal's ...
Congenital fiber type disproportion (CFTD) is an inherited form of myopathy with small type 1 muscle fibers that may occur in a number of neurological disorders. [3] It has a relatively good outcome and follows a stable course. [4]
The rate of occurrence of additional symptoms later in life varies and increases with age. [6] These may include: Intellectual disability/developmental delay [9] Ataxia (problems with balance and movement) [6] [5] Muscle weakness [6] Slurred speech [5] Lordosis (curved lower back) and kyphoscoliosis (curved upper back) [5]
