[Guideline-recommended standardized instruments in multiple sclerosis : A comparative content analysis based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF)].
Nervenarzt
December 2024
Department für Versorgungsforschung, Fakultät VI Medizin und Gesundheitswissenschaften, Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg, Ammerländer Heerstr. 114-118, 26129, Oldenburg, Deutschland.
Background: Guidelines serve as practice-based decision support and recommend the use of standardized instruments to measure functional capacity in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). However, the extent to which a person's functioning is captured by these instruments is unclear.
Objectives: The aim of this study is to link the content of the MS disease guideline with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) in order to capture the distribution of the content on the functional domains and contextual factors and to uncover existing gaps.
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome and encephalomyelitis disseminata/multiple sclerosis show remarkable levels of similarity in phenomenology and neuroimmune characteristics.
BMC Med
September 2013
Tir Na Nog, Pembrey, Llanelli, UK.
Background: 'Encephalomyelitis disseminata' (multiple sclerosis) and myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) are both classified as diseases of the central nervous system by the World Health Organization. This review aims to compare the phenomenological and neuroimmune characteristics of MS with those of ME/CFS.
Discussion: There are remarkable phenomenological and neuroimmune overlaps between both disorders.
Pantoprazole induces severe acute hepatitis.

February 2011
Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University Hospital of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany.
A female patient receiving pantoprazole during a corticosteroid therapy for encephalomyelitis disseminata developed severe acute hepatitis one month after initiation of pantoprazole treatment. Other causes of hepatic dysfunction including viral hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, haemochromatosis or Wilson's disease were excluded. Liver biopsy showed severe hepatic lesions with extensive necroses of the parenchyma.

May 2008
Institut für Virologie, Medizinische Hochschule Hannover, Hannover, Germany.
Background And Objectives: This study provides a one-step transcription/real-time (TaqMan probe) PCR assay (TM-PCR) with new consensus primer and probe sequences for generic detection of human pathogenic enteroviruses including difficult to detect ones like for instance Echovirus 30. The amplicon included parts of domain IV and V of the highly conserved internal ribosomal entry site. Generic detection was confirmed by testing a panel of 41 prototypes representing all five human enterovirus/poliovirus species.

Helsinki Medical Imaging Centre, University of Helsinki, Haartmaninkatu, Helsinki.
Aim: To compile imaging findings in patients with vocal fold paralysis.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of the medical charts of 100 consecutive patients, admitted to our department with vocal fold paralysis was undertaken. After laryngoscopy, patients were referred for radiological work-up depending on their clinical history and clinical findings.
