and those with seizure disorders (Michaud‚ 2013). Although severity varies‚ these disabilities are characterized by motor impairments resulting from a neurological injury or deficiency. This condition often results in muscle weakness‚ decreased joint range of motion‚ abnormal muscle tone‚ and/or decreased balance and coordination (Michaud‚ 2013). Often‚ these individuals are limited in their ability to participate in age-appropriate activities such as mobility‚ self-care‚ and communication. Many

multiple proteins. Since MFMs show morphologically distinct features but consist of genetically and clinically heterogeneous diseases‚ muscle biopsy is important for the diagnosis. A 20-year-old man complained of progressive weakness and atrophy of both legs for two years. He had a dysmorphic face and short stature. The light microscopic examination of his muscle biopsy showed mixed myopathic and neurogenic changes. Many myofibers with multiple clusters of blue red rod-like structures and cytoplasmic

neuromuscular‚ autoimmune disease marked by varying degrees of weakness of the skeletal (voluntary) muscles of the body. The body’s immune system attacks and destroys receptors in the muscles. These receptors bind acetylcholine‚ the neurotransmitter released from motor neurons. (Turkington & Harris‚ 2009) The main calling card of myasthenia gravis is muscle weakness that increases during periods of activity and improves after periods of rest. Muscles that control eye and eyelid movements‚ facial expression

Definition • Muscular Dystrophy is a group of diseases that cause progressive weakness & a loss of muscle mass • In MD‚ abnormal genes (mutations) interfere with the production of proteins needed to form healthy muscle • There are many different kinds of Muscular Dystrophy • Symptoms of the most common variety begin in childhood‚ primarily in boys • Other types don’t surface until adulthood Definition Cont… • Some people who have MD will eventually lose the ability to walk • Some may have trouble
Premium Muscular dystrophy Muscle Electromyography
electromyogram (EMG) is a test that is used to record the electrical activity of muscles. When muscles are active‚ they produce an electrical current. This current is usually proportional to the level of the muscle activity. An EMG is also referred to as a myogram. EMGs can be used to detect abnormal electrical activity of muscle that can occur in many diseases and conditions‚ including muscular dystrophy‚ inflammation of muscles‚ pinched nerves‚ peripheral nerve damage (damage to nerves in the arms and

the disease until 1939‚ when New York Yankees first basemen Lou Gehrig retired because of his diagnosis (4). Specifically referred to as a "neurodegenerative disease"‚ ALS is the lack of nourishment to muscles (5). If you break "Amyotrophic" down into its latin meanings "A" means no‚ "Myo" is muscle‚ and "Trophic" means nourishment (6). It slowly eats way at the ability to eat‚ speak‚ walk‚ and breath‚ and will eventually lead to the victims death. ALS is the most common of five motor neuron diseases:
