    Prevalent amongst sufferers of multiple sclerosis some people with Narcolepsy also report this feeling , ref name autogenerated1 http www.jsumption.com imssf modules.php?op modload&name Sections&file index&req viewarticle&artid 196&page 1 ref neurological fatigue is a feeling of overwhelming lassitude or tiredness that can occur at any time of the day, for any duration and does not necessarily recur in a recognisable pattern for any given patient. Neurological fatigue has been described as an overwhelming feeling of weakness not associated with increased physical effort. ref name autogenerated2 http www.rnceus.com ms fss.htm Untitled Document Bot generated title ref There is near universal support that the fatigue experienced by people with MS goes beyond that of people without the disease. ref name autogenerated1 Many Multiple Sclerosis patients report sleeping more than 12 hours a night on successive nights and still being too tired to complete their daily duties despite feeling physically rested. This fatigue is also highly variable and there are some with MS who do not experience neurological fatigue as a primary symptom. ref name autogenerated1 As this fatigue is an invisible symptom, and because of the difficulty of explaining the tired brain feeling of neurological fatigue, others can misinterpret the behavior of persons with MS as lack of effort, ref name autogenerated2 but it is important for those dealing with MS patients to realize that this may not be the case. Suspected causes The specific causes of neurological fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis sufferers is not fully understood. The leading theory includes tired neurons, whereby the patient experiences marked mental fatigue due to the overworking of demyelinated neurons within the brain and central nervous system . This is thought to be compounded by depression, which is very common in Multiple Sclerosis and many other degenerating diseases. Treatment Treatment with modafinil has been shown to significantl ...   more details

  1. Phonemic Neurological Hypochromium Therapy

    Multiple issues wikify January 2011 orphan January 2011 New unreviewed article source ArticleWizard date November 2010 Phonemic Neurological Hypochromium Therapy PNHT is a new innovative technique that uses state of the art insemination devices to implement Chromium Cr3 into the Hypothalamus hypothalamic regions of the brain. It has been proposed by Dr. Nicole Kim to offset delayed phonemic awareness in children between the ages of 3 and 8. The causes of delayed phonemic awareness have been linked to an inability to breakdown Chromium Triastenitephosphate. PNHT has been successfully implemented into in vivo mice with some controversial side effect s, including polydactyly , regurgitation , fatigue , and nausea . While Russia , Poland , and Ukraine have approved this procedure, the United States Food and Drug Administration USFDA has not yet granted its approval. Preparation PNHT functions on the premise that the hypothalamic region of the human brain lacks the critical molecule chromium picolinate , a molecule typically produced by cytochromase B7 1 . The hypothalamus of a developing child may lack cytochromase B7, thereby causing a delay in phonemic awareness. The PNHT process involves passing a Chromium mixture CrAt3PO4 dissolved in a mobile phase through a stationary phase, which separates the chromium picolinate to be measured from other molecules in the mixture based on differential partitioning between the mobile and stationary phases. Subtle differences in a compound s partition coefficient result in differential retention on the stationary phase and thus changing the separation. Experiment In vitro and animal studies 1,2 have shown chromium to have a positive effect on insulin sensitivity . One of the intracellular proteins influencing the insulin receptor is the oligopeptide apolipoprotein , low molecular weight , chromium binding substance apo chromomodulin 2 . In vitro, this peptide has the ability to increase tyrosine kinase activity eightfold, depending ...   more details

The neuroimaging techniques mainly used in dyslexia research have been functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging fMRI and positron emission tomography PET , which have produced clear evidence of structural differences in the brains of children with reading difficulties. It has been found that people with dyslexia have a deficit in parts of the left hemisphere of the brain involved in reading, which includes the inferior frontal gyrus , inferior parietal lobule , and middle and Brodmann area 20 ventral temporal cortex . ref cite journal pmid 17073983 pmc 2617739 doi 10.1111 j.1469 7610.2006.01684.x year 2006 last1 Cao first1 F last2 Bitan first2 T last3 Chou first3 TL last4 Burman first4 DD last5 Booth first5 JR title Deficient orthographic and phonological representations in children with dyslexia revealed by brain activation patterns volume 47 issue 10 pages 1041 50 journal Journal of child psychology and psychiatry, and allied disciplines ref ref cite journal pmid 16925477 doi 10.1207 s15326942dn3001 5 year 2006 last1 Shaywitz first1 BA last2 Lyon first2 GR last3 Shaywitz first3 SE title The role of functional magnetic resonance imaging in understanding reading and dyslexia volume 30 issue 1 pages 613 32 journal Developmental neuropsychology ref Brain activation studies using PET to study language have produced a breakthrough in our understanding of the neural basis of language over the past ...   more details
