The reaction characterized by inflammation in the brain or the spinal column is known medically as "neuroinflammation." The central nervous system is impacted by neurodegeneration, which is epitomized by the loss of neural functioning and structure. Neurodegeneration occurs as a...
Giant axonal neuropathy (GAN) is a rare, relatively rapidly progressive hereditary neuropathy culminating into death by second or third decade. Simple clinical clues in general physical examination can aid in diagnosis of this rare disease. We report an 11-year-old Hindu male, bo...
Background: There is growing evidence that Covid 19 is associated with a myriad of neurological complications. There is still a paucity of understanding of the various biological underpinnings directing this association. Results: This was a review of the literature on various neu...
