| polymyalgia rheumatica | An inflammatory syndrome occurring in people over age 50 and is characterised by stiffness and pain in shoulder and hip musculature. Patients may complain of weakness in addition to diffuse muscle wasting (atrophy). The blood level of creatine phosphokinase (CPK muscle enzyme) is normal, but the erythrocyte sedimentation rate is elevated. Can also be seen in association with temporal arteritis. Treatment is with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents. (27 Sep 1997) |
| scarlatina rheumatica | A tropical disease caused by dengue virus (Arbovirus), that is transmitted by the bite of an infected mosquito of the genus Aedes). Four severity grades of the illness are seen: grade I (fever and constitutional symptoms), grade II (grade I plus spontaneous bleeding of skin, gums or gastrointestinal tract), grade III (grade II plus agitation and circulatory failure) and grade IV (profound shock). Grade I infection is seen most frequently in world travelers, where it is usually self-limited and rarely fatal. The other grades are referred to as dengue haemorrhagic fever and are often fatal. Dengue haemorrhagic fever appears to be an infection by one of the other dengue viruses. Prior immunity to a different dengue virus type appears to be important in the development of the more serious haemorrhagic form. Vaccines are available. Protection from mosquitoes is an important preventive measure. (27 Sep 1997) |
| purpura rheumatica | <dermatology> This relatively rare disorder is characterised by skin purpura, joint pains, abdominal pain and renal disease (glomerulonephritis). Although Henoch-Schonlein purpura or anaphylactoid purpura, is thought to be a immune complex mediated disease, its exact cause is unknown. Its typical benign coarse can, however, include renal failure. (27 Sep 1997) |
| adventitial neuritis | Inflammation of the sheath of a nerve. See: perineuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ascending neuritis | Inflammation progressing upward along a nerve trunk in a direction away from the periphery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axial neuritis | Inflammation of the nervous substance proper, the axons, and myelin. Synonym: axial neuritis, central neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| brachial neuritis | neuralgic amyotrophy |
| parenchymatous neuritis | Inflammation of the nervous substance proper, the axons, and myelin. Synonym: axial neuritis, central neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central neuritis | Inflammation of the nervous substance proper, the axons, and myelin. Synonym: axial neuritis, central neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retrobulbar neuritis | Optic neuritis without swelling of the optic disk. (05 Mar 2000) |
| multiple neuritis | <neurology> A disease process involving a number of peripheral nerves. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (14 Oct 1997) |
| sciatic neuritis | A syndrome characterised by pain radiating from the back into the buttock and into the lower extremity along its posterior or lateral aspect and most commonly caused by prolapse of the intervertebral disk, the term is also used to refer to pain anywhere along the course of the sciatic nerve. (18 Nov 1997) |
| segmental neuritis | Inflammation occurring at several points along the course of a nerve, segmental demyelinating neuropathy (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuritis | <clinical sign> Inflammation of a nerve, a condition attended by pain and tenderness over the nerves, anaesthesia and paraesthesias, paralysis, wasting and disappearance of the reflexes. In practice, the term is also used to denote noninflammatory lesions of the peripheral nervous system. If the involvement is in one nerve it is called mononeuritis, in several nerves, mononeuritis multiplex, if diffuse and bilateral, polyneuritis. See: neuropathy. (16 Dec 1997) |
