postheadericon Neurological Diseases: are you at risk?

Neurological diseases are those in which an injury or dysfunction of the nervous system, either central or peripheral.  If we make a comparison with computing, neurological diseases would be a hardware problem, machinery, and psychiatric would rather the software, the system program.

Neurologists often have patients with diseases which can detect lesions in the central nervous system, such as vascular brain, which is a dysfunction of neurotransmitters such as Parkinson Sea.

Perhaps one of the most prominent pathology is the stroke, also known as brain circulatory disease or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) before misnamed cerebral atherosclerosis.

This is a neurological disease that occurs most often disabling or fatal consequences, although many things you can do to avoid them.

Everyone knows what a heart attack, but what a brain infarction. Myocardial infarction or heart is a matter of urgent consultations everywhere and people know what it is.

Myocardial ischemia and brain are less known. Occurs anywhere in the body including the brain, where lack of circulation and oxygen can not reach.

Cerebral artery is covered and the most common failure is that the functioning of the body part that depends on the cerebral artery. The brain is organized as a map, so that failure of the movement in a particular area, that will speak with the failure of such a function linked to a body part.

What we know everyone is hemiplegia, which occurs when you flip one of the major cerebral arteries.  They are conditions that may be transient, with recovery and may even be reversed, so the patient must make a query quickly, because once installed it is more difficult to overcome.
