  • Dawson's disease

    Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a progressive neurological disorder characterized by inflammation of the brain (encephalitis). The disease may develop due to reactivation of the measles virus or an inappropriate immune response to the measles virus. SSPE usually develops 2 to 10 years after the original viral attack. Initial symptoms may include memory loss, irritability, seizures, involuntary muscle movements, and/or behavioral  Read More

  • Gayet-wernicke syndrome

    Wernicke syndrome and Korsakoff syndrome are related disorders that often occur due to a deficiency of thiamine (vitamin B1). Wernicke's syndrome, also known as Wernicke encephalopathy, is a neurological disease characterized by the clinical triad of confusion, the inability to coordinate voluntary movement (ataxia), and eye (ocular) abnormalities. Korsakoff's syndrome is a mental disorder characterized by disproportionate memory loss in relat  Read More

  • Subacute spongiform encephalopathy

    Subacute spongiform encephalopathy is also known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), which is a degenerative brain condition that causes dementia and, eventually, death. Symptoms of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease may resemble those of dementia-like brain illnesses, such as Alzheimer's. However, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease normally advances much faster. CJD first gained public notice in the 1990s, when several persons in  Read More

  • Subcortical ischemic vascular disease

    Binswanger disease is a progressive neurological disorder caused by arteriosclerosis and thromboembolism affecting the blood vessels that supply the white-matter and deep structures of the brain (basal ganglia and thalamus). Most patients experience progressive loss of memory and intellectual abilities (dementia), urinary urgency or incontinence, and an abnormally slow, shuffling, unsteady pattern of walking, usually over a 5-10 year period.
