BACKGROUND Postbariatric surgery poly-neuropathies (BSP) are infrequent events. However, with the number of gastric bypasses performed each year increasing, the incidence of BSP is expected to increase as well. The long-term sequelae of BSP worsen with delays in diagnoses. Therefore, early evaluation, recognition, and treatment are important in minimizing morbidity and mortality. METHODS We p...

UNLABELLED Previously not shown this study support that mfVEP is an indicator of optic nerve neuropathy in diabetic patients and there could be a correlation between the optic nerve dysfunction and diabetic poly neuropathy. The early optic nerve involvement might explain some of the visual complain in this group of diabetic patients. PURPOSE To investigate the function of the visual pathway m...

Introduction: Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) is an acute-onset autoimmune-mediated neuropathy. can be divided into three subtypes: acute inflammatory demyelinating poly-radiculo-neuropathy (AIDP), motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN), and sensory (AMSAN). About 20% of patients with GBS develop respiratory failure require mechanical ventilation. We are presenting a variant (Miller Fisher Syndrome, or M...

Organophosphate being the lethal compound and easily available insecticide in developing countries has significant potential health risk. The morbidity related to organophosphate poisoning as delayed peripheral neuropathy, extra pyramidal syndromes neuropsychiatric manifestations are still major consequences of secondary neuronal damage. Herein, we present a case 23 year old lady who ingested c...

Retinal neuropathy is an early event in the development of diabetic retinopathy. One of the potential enzymes that are activated by oxidative stress in the diabetic retina is poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). We investigated the effect of the PARP inhibitor 1,5-isoquinolinediol on the expression of the neurodegeneration mediators and markers in the retinas of diabetic rats. After two weeks o...

BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-induced neuropathy is the principle dose limiting factor requiring discontinuation of many chemotherapeutic agents, including cisplatin and oxaliplatin. About 30 to 40% of patients receiving chemotherapy develop pain and sensory changes. Given that poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition has been shown to provide neuroprotection, the current study was developed to...

Cardiovascular diseases remain a major medical problems in most countries around the world, causing significant economic disbenefit. An important pathogenetic mechanism of influence insulin resistance and hypothyroidism on cardiovascular system is alteration autonomic regulation heart rhythm.
 Objective. The aim study was to evaluate dynamics rate variability (HRV) rats with obesity under ...
