Lower limb hypertonia- MedGen UID:
- 375612
- •Concept ID:
- C1845245
- •
- Finding
Dysarthria- MedGen UID:
- 8510
- •Concept ID:
- C0013362
- •
- Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Dysarthric speech is a general description referring to a neurological speech disorder characterized by poor articulation. Depending on the involved neurological structures, dysarthria may be further classified as spastic, flaccid, ataxic, hyperkinetic and hypokinetic, or mixed.
Dystonic disorder- MedGen UID:
- 3940
- •Concept ID:
- C0013421
- •
- Sign or Symptom
An abnormally increased muscular tone that causes fixed abnormal postures. There is a slow, intermittent twisting motion that leads to exaggerated turning and posture of the extremities and trunk.
Spasticity- MedGen UID:
- 7753
- •Concept ID:
- C0026838
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A motor disorder characterized by a velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes with increased muscle tone, exaggerated (hyperexcitable) tendon reflexes.
Babinski sign- MedGen UID:
- 19708
- •Concept ID:
- C0034935
- •
- Finding
Upturning of the big toe (and sometimes fanning of the other toes) in response to stimulation of the sole of the foot. If the Babinski sign is present it can indicate damage to the corticospinal tract.
Parkinsonism- MedGen UID:
- 66079
- •Concept ID:
- C0242422
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Characteristic neurologic anomaly resulting from degeneration of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain, characterized clinically by shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty with walking and gait.
Cerebellar atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 196624
- •Concept ID:
- C0740279
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Cerebellar atrophy is defined as a cerebellum with initially normal structures, in a posterior fossa with normal size, which displays enlarged fissures (interfolial spaces) in comparison to the foliae secondary to loss of tissue. Cerebellar atrophy implies irreversible loss of tissue and result from an ongoing progressive disease until a final stage is reached or a single injury, e.g. an intoxication or infectious event.
Limb ataxia- MedGen UID:
- 196692
- •Concept ID:
- C0750937
- •
- Finding
A kind of ataxia that affects movements of the extremities.
Gait ataxia- MedGen UID:
- 155642
- •Concept ID:
- C0751837
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A type of ataxia characterized by the impairment of the ability to coordinate the movements required for normal walking. Gait ataxia is characteirzed by a wide-based staggering gait with a tendency to fall.
Lower limb hyperreflexia- MedGen UID:
- 322973
- •Concept ID:
- C1836696
- •
- Finding
Somatic sensory dysfunction- MedGen UID:
- 1790456
- •Concept ID:
- C5551413
- •
- Finding
An abnormality of the primary sensation that is mediated by peripheral nerves (pain, temperature, touch, vibration, joint position). The word hypoesthesia (or hypesthesia) refers to a reduction in cutaneous sensation to a specific type of testing.
Ragged-red muscle fibers- MedGen UID:
- 477048
- •Concept ID:
- C3275417
- •
- Finding
An abnormal appearance of muscle fibers observed on muscle biopsy. Ragged red fibers can be visualized with Gomori trichrome staining as irregular and intensely red subsarcolemmal zones, whereas the normal myofibrils are green. The margins of affect fibers appear red and ragged. The ragged-red is due to the accumulation of abnormal mitochondria below the plasma membrane of the muscle fiber, leading to the appearance of a red rim and speckled sarcoplasm.
Ptosis- MedGen UID:
- 2287
- •Concept ID:
- C0005745
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
The upper eyelid margin is positioned 3 mm or more lower than usual and covers the superior portion of the iris (objective); or, the upper lid margin obscures at least part of the pupil (subjective).
Ophthalmoparesis- MedGen UID:
- 155551
- •Concept ID:
- C0751401
- •
- Sign or Symptom
Ophthalmoplegia is a paralysis or weakness of one or more of the muscles that control eye movement.
Slow saccadic eye movements- MedGen UID:
- 232942
- •Concept ID:
- C1321329
- •
- Finding
An abnormally slow velocity of the saccadic eye movements.
Dysmetric saccades- MedGen UID:
- 322908
- •Concept ID:
- C1836392
- •
- Finding
The controller signal for saccadic eye movements has two components
Gaze-evoked nystagmus- MedGen UID:
- 1808161
- •Concept ID:
- C5574666
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Nystagmus made apparent by looking to the right or to the left.
Abnormal activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain- MedGen UID:
- 868721
- •Concept ID:
- C4023126
- •
- Finding
An increased or decreased activity of the mitochondrial respiratory chain.
- Abnormal cellular phenotype
- Abnormality of limbs
- Abnormality of the eye
- Abnormality of the musculoskeletal system
- Abnormality of the nervous system
