Degenerative spinal disorders involve a loss of function in the spine. Pressure on the spinal cord and nerves may be associated with herniation or disc displacement. Brain degeneration also causes central nervous system diseases (i.e. Alzheimer's, Lewy body dementia, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases).
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.g., Aicardi syndrome). There is disagreement over the definitions and criteria used to delineate various disorders and whether some of these conditions should be classified as ...
Viral infections of the central nervous system (3 C, 9 P) Pages in category "Central nervous system disorders" The following 59 pages are in this category, out of 59 total.
Examples of neurodegenerative disease include Alzheimer's disease, [14] Parkinson's disease, [15] and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. [16] For example, multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory neurodegenerative disease where the body initiate an inflammatory reaction in the central nervous system, and causes damage to neurons.
Infections of the central nervous system (CNS) consist of infections primarily of the brain and spinal cord. They include mostly viral infections, less commonly bacterial infections, fungal infections, prion diseases and protozoan infections. Neonatal meningitis is a particular classification by age.
The neurological problem may start in another body system that interacts with the nervous system. For example, cerebrovascular disease involves brain injury due to problems with the blood vessels (cardiovascular system) supplying the brain; autoimmune disorders involve damage caused by the body's own immune system; lysosomal storage diseases ...
You probably know that your nervous system is the intricate network of the brain, spine, and nerves that control your thoughts, emotions, and bodily functions like breathing, sleep, and movement ...
The major meta-categories is Category:Neurological disorders by disease category. A disorder can be categorized in both systems simultaneously (for example, glioma under "Nervous system neoplasia" AND "Brain disorders"). Please sort articles into these sub-categories and avoid categorizing them simply with the parent category Neurological ...
