Rehabilitation of patients with multiple sclerosis.

There are inherent difficulites in the rehabilitation of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The clinical manifestations of the disease vary tremendously, as does its natural course. The many theories on the etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of MS are presented. However, at the current time, the patient with MS may be treated with the realistic goal of minimizing the effects of the disease. This is accomplished best in a rehabilitation setting. Diagnosis, prognosis, and factors associated with precipitaiton or exaggeration of symptoms, are discussed. Specific techniques of rehabilitation of decreased motor power, spasticity, ataxia and intention tremor, speech and optic defects, and impaired sensation are presented.

The importance and wide array of emotional difficulties in patients with MS is emphasized, and those patients who may benefit from psychotherapy are discussed.

[Neuropsychological analysis of disorders in higher mental operations in children with acute serous meningitis].

A neuropsychological analysis was performed of voluntary movements and actions, of the visual and auditory gnosis, memory and speech in children aged 4-7 years in acute serous meningitis. The results demonstrated certain defects in mental functions, especially distinct in the acute period of the disease. The data obtained indicate functional disturbances in the frontal and intraparietal associative areas of the neocortex. Despite a clinical recovery, most of the children showed no complete normalization of the higher nervous activity.
