TABULAR DISCUSSION FOR ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS: Spastic Conditions, Cerebral Palsy, Spastic Paraparesis TOPIC TEXT HIGHLIGHTS Cerebral Palsy Cerebral (brain) and palsy (paralysis). Cerebral palsy (CP) can be caused by any abnormality of the developing brain. This includes genetic/developmental disorders, fetal damage (complications of pregnancy), birth problems (perinatal asphyxia), and even early postnatal brain damage within the first two years of life. Fetal and postnatal, in the first 2 years of life. Demographics The prevalence is approximately 500k in the U.S. The incidence (new cases) is about 5K/year in the U.S. and 1200-1500 previously normal children develop CP in the preschool years. Most patients have spasticity ("upper motor neuron" disease). 500,000 + in U.S. Risk Factors, (prenatal/perinatal) Cerebral palsy is associated with many precipitating factors, including: premature birth, low birth weight, immunoincompatibility, prolonged labor, premature placental separation, and intrauterine infections. Many of these factors cause CP through a mechanism of oxygen deprivation to the fetal/immature brain. Cerebral anoxia Risk Factors, (postnatal)

Hereditary Spastic Paraplegias Authors: Doctors Enza Maria Valente and Marco Seri Scientific Editor: Doctor Franco Taroni Creation date: January 2003 Disease name and synonyms Hereditary spastic paraparesis Hereditary spastic paraplegia Familial spastic paraplegia Definition Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by slowly progressive spasticity and weakness of lower limbs, due to a progressive axonal degeneration mainly evident at the distal ends of the corticospinal tracts. Mild loss of the distal ends of the dorsal column fibers and of anterior horn cells may occur. Clinically, HSPs can be divided into two main groups: "pure" and "complex", also referred to as "uncomplicated" and "complicated" forms, respectively. Pure HSPs are characterized by slowly progressive lower extremity spasticity and weakness, often associated with hypertonic urinary disturbances, mild reduction of lower extremity vibration sense, and, occasionally, of joint position sensation. Pes cavus is sometimes present, and scoliosis may develop in some cases. Pure HSP can be highly disabling but does not shorten life-span. In complex HSPs, this clinical picture is associated with other neurological or non-neurological signs and symptoms, such as seizures, dementia, deafness, amyotrophy, extrapyramidal signs, peripheral neuropathy, in the absence of other co-existing diseases (Bundey 1992; Harding 1993; Reid 1997). Classification Genetically, HSPs are divided by mode of inheritance (autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive and X-linked) and sub-divided by chromosomal locus or causative gene (if already identified). All genetically defined HSPs are assigned the symbol “SPG” (spastic gait) followed by a progressive number. Twenty SPG symbols have been assigned so far, each one identifying a different locus/gene. Considering both clinical and genetic classifications, five HSP groups are defined: autosomal dominant pure (SPG3; SPG4; SPG6; SPG8; SPG10; SPG12; SPG13; SPG19), autosomal dominant complex (SPG9; SPG17), autosomal recessive pure (SPG5; SPG11), autosomal recessive complex (SPG14; SPG15; SPG20) and X-linked complex (SPG1/L1CAM; SPG2/PLP1; SPG16). SPG7, due to mutations in the “

The disorder causes occasional episodes of muscle weakness Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top The cause of hyperkalemic periodic paralysis is believed to be a genetic muscle disease. In most cases it is inherited directly; in other cases, it occurs randomly in a family group. The disorder involves attacks of muscle weakness or paralysis , alternating with periods of normal muscle function. Attacks usually begin in early childhood. Multiple daily attacks are not uncommon. Attacks typically last only 1 to 2 hours, but can sometimes last as long as a day. They tend to occur while resting after exercise or exertion.

Spastic Paresis A collection of resources for you and your veterinarian Maxine Kinne From: American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine 7th Annual Veterinary Medicine Forum, May 1989 Spastic Paresis in Pygmy Goats J. Baker, D. Ciszewski, C. Lowrie, T. Mullaney College of Veterinary Medicine, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI Spastic paresis is reported for the first time in goats from North America. It was concluded that spastic paresis in goats shares many similarities with the disease in cattle. The possibility of inheritance is suggested by 2 of the goats being related. Results of surgical desafferentation indicate that the defect is in the myotatic reflex (stretch reflex). Results from the epidural block using dilute procaine indicate that spastic paralysis in goats is caused by a relative over-stimulation (or lack of inhibition) of the gamma efferent motor neurons.
