Health and Neurological Disorders

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, demyelinating disease meaning that the myelin sheath of neurons is damaged. Symptoms of MS include visual and sensation problems, muscle weakness and depression.

It is the inability to move a group of muscles in one side of the body. When hemiplegia is caused by a stroke, it often involves muscles in the face, arms, and legs. In elderly individuals, strokes are the most common cause of hemiplegia.

Like all types of dementia, Alzheimer's is caused by brain cells death. It is a neurodegenerative disease, which means there is progressive brain cells death that happens over a course of time. The total brain size shrinks with Alzheimer's - the tissue has progressively fewer nerve cells and connections. In Alzheimer's, there are microscopic 'plaques' and 'tangles' between and within brain cells. While they cannot be seen or tested in the living brain affected by Alzheimer's disease, postmortem/autopsy will always show tiny inclusions in the nerve tissue, called plaques and tangles. Plaques are found between the dying cells in the brain - from the build-up of a protein called beta-amyloid.

Microcurrent therapy uses electrical impulses that can interfere with the electrical signals in the brain, making epilepsy a primary contraindication.

The cerebellum is located down to the occipital lobe of the cerebrum. The cerebellum is the vital part of the brain that controls the motor movements of the body. Its functions include coordinated movement, balance, posture, speech, etc. Thus in this case, if the cerebellum is damaged the person won't be able to stand or walk properly. So, the correct answer is option C.

The cerebellum is located down to the occipital lobe of the cerebrum. The cerebellum is the vital part of the brain that controls the motor movements of the body. Its functions include coordinated movement, balance, posture, speech, etc. Thus his movement and speech becomes unbalanced and uncontrolled. Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Alzheimer disease is characterized by the progressive loss of cholinergic neurons in the brain, leading to a significant deficiency in the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is crucial for memory and learning.

Cerebellum is the  part of the brain which is responsible for balancing the body. It helps in coordination of right and left interpretation done by the central nervous system. When the cerebellum, gets damage the coordination between several movements is lost.

So, the correct answer is 'He will be unable to coordinate and stand properly'

The frontal lobes are considered to be our emotional control center and home to our personality. The right frontal lobe plays a role in non-verbal abilities. Frontal lobe damage seems to have an impact on divergent thinking or flexibility or problem-solving ability. A damage to anterior right frontal lobe leads to an inability to appreciate humour. The individual with damage in this region also reacted less, with diminished physical or emotional response.

Polio is a viral disease, which affects the spinal cord causing muscle weakness and paralysis. The polio virus enters the body through the mouth, usually from hands contaminated with the stool of an infected person. 

Paraplegia is an impairment in motor or sensory function of the lower extremities. It is usually the result of spinal cord injury.

A disease is defined as a condition that impairs normal bodily or mental functioning. Vaccination is a preventative measure, and an epidemic is a widespread occurrence of a disease.

Epilepsy is a group of neurological disorders characterized by epileptic seizures. Epileptic seizures are recurrent episodes of epileptic attack that can vary from brief and nearly undetectable to long periods of vigorous shaking and there is unconsciousness.
