Dysesthesia is an unpleasant abnormal sensation, which is often accompanied by peripheral neuropathy or vascular impairment. Here, we examined the roles of transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) in dysesthesia-like behaviours elicited by transient hindlimb ischemia (15-60 min) by tightly
Background: Aircrew members are required to attend hypoxia awareness training regularly to strengthen their memory of their personal hypoxia symptoms by undergoing training inside a hypobaric chamber. The aim of this study was to examine
Chronic neuropathic pain resulting from damage to the central or peripheral nervous system is a prevalent and debilitating condition affecting 7-18% of the population. Symptoms include spontaneous pain, dysesthesia, paresthesia, allodynia and hyperalgesia. The reported sensory symptoms are comorbid
Dysesthesia is an unpleasant abnormal sensation, often accompanied by pain, paresthesia (abnormal sensation), and numbness (decrease or loss of sensation). Dysesthesia has been associated with various conditions, although its underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. This study assessed the roles
A purine degradation study, thermography and near infrared spectroscopy of the extremities were performed on 2 young males with Fabry disease and 2 healthy controls. Two-minute semi-ischemic forearm exercise caused a distinct increase in lactate in all subjects, but venous hypoxanthine and ammonia
METHODS
Female, 64 FINAL DIAGNOSIS: Polycythemia rubra vera Symptoms: Burning pain • cramps • hypesthesia • itching • paresthesia
METHODS
- Clinical Procedure: - Specialty: Neurology.
OBJECTIVE
Unusual clinical course.
BACKGROUND
The association between polycythemia vera and peripheral neuropathy
Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) or lack of adaptation to live in high altitudes is related to environmental hypoxia and excessive erythrocytosis (EE) (hemoglobin >21 and >19 g/dL for men and women, respectively). Diagnosis of CMS ("Qinghai CMS Score") is based on seven signs/symptoms (breathlessness
BACKGROUND
Respiratory failure in severely hypophosphatemic patients has been attributed to respiratory muscle weakness, leading to ventilatory failure. While frequently documenting hypercarbic respiratory failure, previous reports of hypophosphatemia-related respiratory failure in patients
BACKGROUND
There are some occlusive disorders in the vasa nervorum and metabolic changes disminishing oxygen liberation by erytrocites at the capillary blood vessels, and these disturbances lead to endoneural microhypoxia. Hyperbaric oxygen reverts hypoxia in the diabetic neuropathy.

We report a patient with subacute myelo-optico-neuropathy (SMON) in whom spinal anesthesia was employed to treat fracture of the femur neck. An 87-year-old woman was diagnosed as having SMON at the age of 45. The patient was admitted to our hospital with fracture of the femur neck. Aspiration
Altitude chamber exposures are used for training to allow aircrew to experience their hypoxia and pressure effect symptoms. Decompression illness (DCI) can occur subsequent to altitude chamber training or in operational aircraft when the cabin altitude is at least 18,000 feet. A young male foundry worker had headache, nonproductive cough, orthopnea, formication, rigor, fever, and substernal pain after exposure to concentrated metal fumes. Examination revealed bilateral basal rales. Serial spirometry suggested a transitory restrictive impairment with persistent mild to
Diabetic neuropathy is a common complication in diabetes mellitus. Diabetic neuropathy is accompanied by alterations in axonal excitability, which can lead to either "positive" (paresthesia, dysesthesia, pain) and/or "negative" (hypesthesia, anesthesia) symptoms. The mechanisms underlying these
This basic review is intended to summarize the current knowledge of methemoglobinemia as an important cause of secondary headache with the hope of generating a growing interest in studying this phenomenon.We describe the pathological underpinnings of Diabetic polyneuropathy is the most frequent neuropathy in western countries. In Germany, there are 3.5 to 4 million diabetic patients. Diagnosis should rule out other polyneuropathies and assess two out of the five diagnostic criteria: neuropathic symptoms, neuropathic deficits, pathological nerve
