What are the Most Common Neurological Disorders? - Asian Neuro Centre
Neurological Disorder
Neurological disorders are conditions that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves throughout the body. These disorders can result in a wide range of symptoms, including changes in movement, sensation, cognition, behavior, and overall quality of life.
Early diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial in effectively managing these conditions and improving the quality of life for individuals affected by them.

What are the Most Common Neurological Disorders?
Here are some of the most common neurological disorders:
Headaches: Headaches are a prevalent neurological disorder that causes pain and discomfort in the head. There are different types of headaches, including tension headaches, which are often caused by stress or muscle tension; migraines, which can cause severe headaches along with other symptoms like nausea and sensitivity to light; and cluster headaches.
Epilepsy: Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, which are sudden, brief changes in the brain’s electrical activity. Seizures can cause a variety of symptoms, such as convulsions, loss of consciousness, and unusual behaviors.
Stroke: A stroke occurs when there is a disruption of blood flow to the brain, leading to damage to brain tissue. Strokes can result in a wide range of symptoms, depending on the area of the brain affected, including weakness or numbness on one side of the body, difficulty speaking or understanding language, and changes in vision or balance.

In 2016, years before long COVID was a thing, the US National Institutes of Health, the largest single public funder of medical research in the world, launched a study into a long-neglected and puzzling condition: chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis, or ME/CFS. Eight years later, the results of that study are finally out. In one of the most thorough investigations to date, researchers took a deep dive into a small group of 17 people who developed ME/CFS after an infection and found distinct biological differences compared to 21 healthy controls. "Overall, what we show is that ME/CFS is unambiguously biological, with multiple organ systems affected," neurologist Avindra Nath, lead researcher of the study and clinical director of NIH's National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), said in an interview with JAMA. For decades, many doctors had dismissed ME/CFS as a psychosomatic condition that was 'all in patients' heads'. Now there is little doubt: a host of biological changes underpin ME/CFS.

Bernie Sanders Introduces Long COVID Moonshot Legislation
Tumblr media
This legislation "provides $1 billion in mandatory funding per year for 10 years to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to support Long COVID research, the urgent pursuit of treatments, and the expansion of care for patients across the country." Announcement on Sander's twitter and the Long COVID Moonshot website.
This announcement references the number 22 million for adults affected by Long COVID in the US but that number is certainly much higher; in 2022 the CDC reported that 7.5% of US adults have Long COVID and that number can only have increased.
Here is an article published today on PBS if you need a primer or a refresher on what Long COVID is and why everyone needs to care about it. From the article:
"Long COVID is a complex chronic condition that can result in more than 200 health effects across multiple body systems. These include:
Heart disease
Neurologic problems such as cognitive impairment, strokes and dysautonomia. This is a category of disorders that affect the body’s autonomic nervous system – nerves that regulate most of the body’s vital mechanisms such as blood pressure, heart rate and temperature.
Post-exertional malaise, a state of severe exhaustion that may happen after even minor activity — often leaving the patient unable to function for hours, days or weeks
Gastrointestinal disorders
Kidney disease
Metabolic disorders such as diabetes and hyperlipidemia, or a rise in bad cholesterol
Immune dysfunction"
I know it's easy to give into despair but THERE IS HOPE for the future! For decreasing transmission of COVID-19, for developing preventatives against Long COVID, and for treating Long COVID. To highlight just a few of the possible pathways to prevention and treatment being currently researched:
The possibility of using antivirals to treat not just Long COVID but any autoimmune disease
The development of N95 masks that can sense SARS-CoV-2 in exhaled breath using a printed immunosensor
A nasal vaccine that halts transmission of SARS-CoV-2 (though does not stop the user from developing COVID-19)
A Japanese research team is looking to treat COVID-19 by using embryonic stem cells to target the virus
The possibility of using already-developed arthritis drugs to treat Long COVID respiratory symptoms
Researchers just identified a possible protein to target in treating Long COVID fatigue
This is an incredibly small collection of studies researching potential treatments but they themselves and the decades of research they are built on had to be funded. In fact, since the pandemic began, more than 24,000 scientific publications about COVID-19 have been published, making it the most researched health condition in any four years of recorded human history.
So there is hope! But all this research needs money. Money that Long COVID Moonshot will provide. And while we wait for research to bear fruit, that $1 billion per year will also be crucial in caring for those suffering from Long COVID in the meantime.
So What Can You Do?
Keep masking - We've just hit 900,000 new COVID cases per day in the US and this wave is not even at its peak yet (For reference, Fauci stated back in 2021 that getting under 10,000 cases per day would allow for mask mandates and safety measures to relax...)
Go on the Long COVID Moonshot website and write to your legislators in support (You can use their script, it only takes 1 minute!)
Keep yourselves and others informed - On the Moonshot website they also offer handy graphics and facts sheets that you can post wherever you can. Spread the word!
And if you or someone you know has Long COVID, you can write in to the Long COVID Moonshot website about your experience
And remember, no one is safe from Long COVID; your chances of developing Long COVID increase with every reinfection. Until research like what Long COVID Moonshot will fund discovers viable preventatives and treatments, the only way to not get Long COVID is to not get COVID-19 in the first place.
Stay safe, stay hopeful, support Long COVID Moonshot, and mask up!

(NOT A ROLEPLAY POST)
As some of you may know, Peri in my FOPANW AU is diagnosed with a magical variant of FND or Functional Neurological Disorder called F-FND (or Fairy Functional Neurological Disorder). I decided to do this because I personally have FND and I wanted to project onto Peri.
SO, long story short I decided to make an infographic about F-FND because why not.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Below I have copied all the text from my infographic for access and for those who didn't want to read it with the purple background lol.
| | | V
This is a Fairly Oddparents Headcanon, and not a real condition! Based on Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) which is a real condition that affects real people. Do not rely on this for grounds of self-diagnosis!
What is F-FND?
Similar to FND in humans, F-FND is a neurological condition caused by changes in the brain’s network, and faulty signals, rather than the brain’s physical composition.
F-FND is a disorder that also affects magic ability, and can increase the risk of magical backup and magical burnout.
What causes it?
Contrary to historical belief, the cause of F-FND remains unknown. Some fairies argue that it’s triggered by psychologically or physically traumatic events, however this has been disproven.
Symptoms include but are not limited to:
Involuntary bursts of magic that aren’t dissimilar to tics, and also regular tics too.
Pain, including chronic migraines
Seizure-like episodes which may involve loss of consciousness and full or partial body convulsions and shaking as well as other symptoms.*
Dissociative seizures, where one may feel disconnected from their thoughts, feelings and/or environment.
Fatigue
Dizziness
Limb weakness or paralysis
Dystonia (When a muscle contracts involuntarily for a prolonged period of time)

Anyway I hope this is helpful??? I don't know why I made this. World building I guess.

NIH recently received approval to reallocate $147 million to support ongoing efforts of the Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER) Initiative(link is external). This allocation is in addition to the $515 million that NIH announced earlier this year, bringing total new funding to $662 million.
These funds add to the $1.15 billion that Congress appropriated in 2021 to support the establishment of the RECOVER nationwide research program. To date, the program is conducting large, multi-site observational studies with more than 40,000 participants. The adult cohort has donated more than 822,000 biospecimens, and the pediatric cohort has donated more than 85,000 biospecimens – all accessible through the RECOVER biorepository for further studies within and beyond RECOVER. In addition, RECOVER supports 40 existing pathobiology studies to understand the biological mechanism of disease, ongoing studies evaluating 60 million electronic health records, and eight existing phase 2 clinical trials testing the safety and efficacy of 13 treatments that include drugs, biologics, medical devices, and other therapies.
In July, NIH began planning for the next phase of long COVID clinical trials through a newly launched program called RECOVER-Treating Long COVID (RECOVER-TLC(link is external)). NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases is leading the program in partnership with the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health and in collaboration with NIH’s National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.
The $662 million in funds will be allocated over Fiscal Years 2025-2029 to support the following research areas:
RECOVER-TLC clinical trials Completion of adult and pediatric observational studies Additional pathobiology studies to examine how long COVID affects different parts of the body which will help to inform clinical trials Preservation and broader access to data and biospecimens and maintaining RECOVER-supported research infrastructure over the next five years Update on Progress RECOVER-TLC RECOVER will allocate approximately $300 million to RECOVER-TLC clinical trials. In September 2024, NIH convened more than 1400 patients, advocates, health care providers, and scientists from academia and pharmaceutical and biotech industries to discuss research priorities and plans for clinical trials that are most needed. During the three-day workshop(link is external), participants discussed a variety of topics, including pathobiology, biomarkers, epidemiology and cohort studies, clinical trial designs, interventional prioritization strategies, and endpoint selection. Importantly, participants at the workshop emphasized the importance of meaningful engagement and collaboration with people affected by Long COVID. NIH plans to convene another workshop and a series of webinars in 2025.
In October, NIH issued a Request For Information to gather ideas on candidate pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions for this next phase of trials, which will remain open until Feb. 1, 2025. Additionally, NIH opened a portal(link is external) for idea submission for therapeutics and biologics and established a review process for vetting these ideas.
RECOVER-TLC will design nimble clinical trials with direct and transparent engagement with scientific, industry, and patient communities. RECOVER-TLC will continue to provide access and sharing of deidentified data with public and scientific communities.
New pathobiology awards RECOVER will award nearly $18 million from the initial $1.15 billion for an additional 20 pathobiology research projects. Pathobiology studies look at biological mechanisms—processes that take place inside the body and its cells—of long COVID. This research is advancing our understanding of the changes in tissues and organs that are caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection and identifying biological markers for therapeutic target based on individuals’ risk factors.
By examining biospecimens such as blood, saliva and other samples and data collected from RECOVER cohorts and clinical trial participants, the new pathobiology studies will help us better understand the 200 conditions associated with long COVID, including:
The effects of COVID-19 on the respiratory, vascular, and other body systems How long COVID compares with other infection-associated chronic conditions The remaining gaps in knowledge of tissue-specific manifestations, including molecular mechanisms such as dysregulation or disruption of normal physiologic pathways These sub-awards build on the more than 40 pathobiology research projects(link is external) awarded in 2022 that are yielding important results. For example, one study found that severe COVID-19 may cause long-lasting alterations to the innate immune system, the first line of defense against pathogens, making some people susceptible to other infections. Another study found that symptoms for some long COVID sufferers appear to be caused by persistent infection and may respond to antiviral medications.
Long COVID is a complex and debilitating chronic condition affecting people’s ability to work, attend school, and participate in their regular activities. Alleviating the suffering of so many individuals, their families, and their caregivers is a priority of NIH. We look forward to further advancing our understanding of long COVID and advancing prevention and treatment.

Hi. Friendly reminder. I have this:
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome And here are some resources if you're having trouble understanding what I'm going through.
RSDSA Mayo Clinic National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke Stanford Medicine
We don't know if I have type 1 or type 2. We're pretty sure I have type 2 (causalgia). It's still CRPS. I take ketamine infusions. You may have heard how that helps people The pain is worse than getting a limb sawed off without medication. That's what I'm going through right now. I need you to understand this. I am struggling to do my daily chores and I am also unable to do things like take care of myself. I am trying my best all while my mental health is in the garbage. Please be kind. I'm aware I'm 3+ years behind on things but the person behind this and my associated accounts is fighting with a condition that won't ever go away and will ultimately be part of what ends me. If I move too slow for you and you're not cool with me doing short hand, I'm not mad if you unfollow. You just have to understand I am really, really struggling in my life and I have to put myself first before I get online. And sadly that sometimes means I don't log in for a while because I am really sick and in bed after doing things as simple as brushing my teeth. You're fine. Just please reevaluate if I am the rper for you.

Villanueva, Ma. Andrea Jenelle V.
STEM MED 1B
From 8 hours to 2 hours
According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, sleep is a crucial activity humans must persist to continue surviving, effectively functioning, and preserving the brain’s well-being. But as humans grow older, the responsibilities they must attend to increase, leading to sacrifices, and one of those is insufficient time for sleep. It has become common for teenagers and young adolescents to have their sleep schedules tentative, and their sleep duration lessened as they compromise to do school-works, part-time jobs, chores, unproductive hobbies, and other time-consuming tasks. Sleep Deprivation among teenagers and students is so looked down upon by them as well as by the education curriculum and system. Aside from humans’ biological nature of changing the chemistry of hormones behind the urgency to sleep, two of the three major reasons why teenagers are poorly derived from sleep are because of the influence played by social media and the various affairs assigned by the school (Child Mind Institute). It is quite upsetting that teenagers and young adolescents took too much pride in how deprived they are of sleep despite the reason without properly thinking of the consequences that could manifest where only time can tell.

Spine Care and Back Pain Relief – Dr. Snehal Hedgire | Spine Specialist in Pune
Tumblr media
The spine plays multiple essential roles in the body and anyone who has had a back issue can attest to how debilitating the pain can be.
Spinal pain is one of the most common symptoms that brings patients to their physician. It is also one of the leading sources of disability. According to the fact sheet from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, about 80 percent of adults experience lower back pain at some point in their lifetimes.
Literally the backbone of our bodies, the spine starts at the base of the skull and supports the length of the torso and abdomen, ending at the tailbone with articulations to the pelvis. Made up of individual, smaller bones called vertebrae, the backbone is flexible, allowing for a wide range of movement. It is the structural component that keeps our bodies aligned and balanced. More importantly, it houses and protects the spinal cord that exits at the base of the brain and travels the entire length of the backbone. The brain and the spinal cord together comprise the central nervous system, and the peripheral nerves that branch off the spinal cord energize the rest of the body.
Looking after your spine
At our Riddhi clinic in Hadapsar, Dr. Snehal Hedgire, a distinguished spine specialist, leads the charge in providing comprehensive spine care and back pain relief. Our clinic is dedicated to diagnosing, treating, and managing various spine-related conditions with the utmost expertise and precision.

So this procedure, you're drilling a very small hole in the brain, and then you're placing in a plug. Neck plug, we'll have a cap which you can open to access the brain. You close the plug, so the brain fluid does not leak... but this way, you can have repeated access to the brain.. and in this, they insert a very small camera to look around inside the brain... then they can find the area that they need to treat like a brain tumor and they can treat this area of the brain...
Here is the procedure below, but this is also done to relieve pressure on the brain, and this is what I was talking about doing with down syndrome children, because what happens is they get excess cranial fluid that puts pressure the brain and prevents it from growing And if you remove some of the fluid, the brain will be able to grow and the head will form correctly. . But you need to have this insert play stin, and controlled the amount of fluid with inside the brain cavity... So as you controlled the amount of fluid and the growth of the brain itself, you will get the proper skeletal formation...
"A burr hole procedure allows your doctor to drill holes in your skull to relieve pressure from fluid or blood buildup."
I disagree with this because you have to take into account what the size of the brain is compared to what it should be and you will find out. The brain is smaller and there is more fluid, and hence reducing the fluid allows the brain to grow more normally...
Hydrocephalus, or a buildup of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain, is rarely associated with Down syndrome. A study found that the rate of CSF production in people with Down syndrome was similar to that of healthy people. However, hydrocephalus can be a common feature of other genetic syndromes.
Hydrocephalus occurs when there's an abnormal amount of CSF in the brain, which can cause the brain's ventricles to widen and put pressure on brain tissue. Symptoms vary by age, but can include:
A rapid increase in head size
A bulge on the soft spot of the head
Vomiting
Sleepiness
Irritability
Eyes that are fixed downward
Seizures
Slowing or loss of developmental progress
Hydrocephalus can be treated with a shunt, a mechanical device that drains fluid from the brain and directs it to another part of the body.
Hydrocephalus
What is hydrocephalus? Hydrocephalus is an abnormal buildup of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) deep within the brain. This excess fluid causes the ventricles (cavitie...
National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (.gov)
So as you see here down syndrome, children tend to have a smaller brain and they are wrong, it is the development of the size of the brain and you need to remove fluid so we can grow to its normal size... and so you have to compare the 2. The pressure from the fluid is filling the brain cavity, and they're saying not access, but it is excess fluid, and it is suppressing the ability for the brain to grow. So you have to understand the internal pressure. Dynamics, and you need to release fluid. To minimize pressure so the brain can progress correctly... And so the statement above is absolutely incorrect, and yes, there are other diseases that have fluid build up as well, but it all starts by measuring the size of the brain and its development compared to a normal child....
Yes, children with Down syndrome (DS) typically have a smaller brain than children without DS:
Brain volume
On average, the total brain volume of people with DS is 18% smaller than people without DS.
Brain structure
Postmortem studies have found that people with DS have a smaller brainstem, cerebellum, frontal and temporal lobes, and amygdala.
Cortex
The cortex of people with DS has a lower volume on average. However, the thickness of the cortex is greater in many regions of people with DS.
Hippocampus
The hippocampus is disproportionately smaller in people with DS who eventually develop dementia.
DS is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21, which changes how the brain and body develop. Other characteristics of DS include:
Smaller head size and an abnormally shaped head
Delayed maturation of the central nervous system
Developmental challenges, such as being slower to learn to speak
Physical features, such as a flattened face, almond-shaped eyes, and a tongue that sticks out
Down Syndrome | Birth Defects - CDC
Oct 28, 2024 — What it is. Down syndrome is a condition in which a person has an extra copy of chromosome 21. Chromosomes are small "packages" of genes in the body...
CDC
So my statement is correct, and it's an adjustment that has to be done as the child ages. It's a plug that you put in and that monitors internal pressure, so it's an insert. It actually measures internal brain pressure, and it's also using this little small hole to also Watch inside the brain, but you can do external scans.But you need to understand the internal dynamics... Solving this, we'll allow down the syndrome, children's brain to grow to normal size... but again, this technique can be used with other diseases that have too much fluid in the brain, suppressing the brain, and yes, it is already used as you see above to take pressure off for other head injuries, so they can remove fluit to allow space to take pressure off the brain, and then the brain will reduce in swelling, and as it shrinks, fluid will come back, meaning filled the space as the brain shrinks back to normal size, fluid should fill in the space. But initially, you have to release fluid. And so it doesn't suppress the circulatory system. Yes, the circulatory and lymphatic system and neurological system in the brain because there's too much pressure.... and relieving, the pressure will allow the brain to heal properly, and it will eventually contract as the swelling goes down and the body naturally will increase the fluid... If not, then you might have to add cranial fluid, but remember, the brain fluid flushes out with the spinal column... one thing you have to worry about when there's too much pressure is that the pressure might prevent the opening to occur to release the fluid in the brain, and this could be a problem with the down syndrome. Children as well that there's too much internal pressure, preventing The fluid from draining, and this could have an adverse effect, because it builds up plaque and other debris within the brain fluid, and this further negatively impacts the brain's growth and function... You have to understand and look at the baby in the womb and watch the exchange of fluid from the spinal cord into the brain cavity, and from the brain cavity, the spinal cord, the flushing, occurring...

Often called "water on the brain," hydrocephalus can cause babies' and young children's heads to swell to make room for excess cerebrospinal fluid

As blood passes from arteries to veins through the capillary bed, fluids are exchanged by diffusion, the movement of molecules from areas of high pressure to low pressure.

This exchange happens primarily at the capillary bed, where blood pressure and osmotic pressure gradients facilitate the movement of fluid across the capillary walls.
Mechanisms:
Diffusion: Molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration, allowing for the exchange of gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Bulk flow: Fluid movement due to pressure differences, where fluid moves out of the capillary at the arterial end (filtration) and back in at the venous end (reabsorption).
Forces involved:
Hydrostatic pressure: The pressure exerted by the blood within the capillary, pushing fluid out into the tissues.
Osmotic pressure: The pressure exerted by the plasma proteins in the blood, drawing fluid back into the capillary.
Interstitial fluid:
The fluid that surrounds cells in tissues, which is formed by the fluid that leaks out of capillaries.
Transcapillary Fluid Exchange - The Gastrointestinal Circulation
The exchange of fluid between the blood and interstitium is dependent on the hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressure gradients exerted across the microvasculat...

So remember I told you, you can drain the fluid from the womb, and then you can eventually go in and put an insert, but remember, the skull is still growing, and so the problem with it. Will the insert adapt as the skull changes in size? It is different in a child. Then, an adult where the skull is not growing any longer... but you can go in and drain off the embryonic fluit, and then open the womb and treat the child in the womb, and then close up the womb in place back in the embryonic fluid... But you might have to put some form of regulating system in the controlled, the amount of fluid in the spinal cavity of the unborn child, where it has a pressure valve, and it will release fluid from the brain cavity at certain pressure levels, keeping the brain under A Constant pressure to brain mass ratio... So, it will release fluid when there is too much pressure pressure release valve and it automatically.Once it releases or reaches a certain pressure, it will allow fluid out the velve....
A "brain flush" doesn't actually exist in the medical sense, but what you might be referring to is the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the cranial cavity and spinal cord, which begins to circulate during fetal development in the womb, meaning it starts very early in pregnancy and is present at birth; this flow is continuous throughout life.
Key points about CSF flow:
Congenital hydrocephalus: If there is a blockage in the flow of CSF, a condition called hydrocephalus can occur at birth (congenital hydrocephalus).
Acquired hydrocephalus: Hydrocephalus can also develop after birth due to injury, infection, or tumors that obstruct CSF flow.
Function of CSF: The CSF acts as a cushion to protect the brain and spinal cord.

"A burr hole procedure allows your doctor to drill holes in your skull to relieve pressure from fluid or blood buildup.
Sometimes your doctor will drill a burr hole to do a procedure called a neuroendoscopy. Once the holes are drilled, they will insert a scope with a camera and special instruments to perform brain surgery. A neuroendoscopy is considered a less invasive way to work on your brain. Your doctor can do this to remove brain tumors or cysts."

The Impact of Stem Cell Therapy on Neurological Disorders in Malaysia
Stem cell therapy has emerged as a revolutionary approach in modern medicine, particularly for treating neurological disorders. In Malaysia, where healthcare innovation is a priority, the potential of stem cell therapy to address complex neurological conditions is garnering significant attention from both medical professionals and patients alike.
Understanding Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells are unique cells capable of differentiating into various types of specialized cells in the body, including neurons. This property makes them a powerful tool in regenerative medicine. Neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and spinal cord injuries, often result from the degeneration or damage of neurons. Stem cell therapy aims to repair or replace these damaged cells, restoring function and improving patients’ quality of life.
Advancements in Research
Malaysia has made notable strides in stem cell research, with institutions and universities actively exploring its applications in treating neurological disorders. Research initiatives funded by the Malaysian government and private sectors have facilitated collaborations between local and international scientists, resulting in groundbreaking studies. For instance, studies on the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown promise in alleviating symptoms of conditions like stroke and traumatic brain injuries.
Clinical trials are ongoing, focusing on the efficacy and safety of stem cell treatments for various neurological disorders. Preliminary results suggest that patients receiving stem cell therapy may experience improvements in motor function, cognitive abilities, and overall well-being. Such advancements bolster Malaysia's reputation as a hub for innovative healthcare solutions in Southeast Asia.
Regulatory Framework
The Malaysian government recognizes the potential of stem cell therapy, leading to the establishment of regulatory frameworks to ensure the safety and ethical use of stem cells in medical treatments. The National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency (NPRA) oversees clinical trials, ensuring compliance with safety standards and ethical guidelines. This regulation fosters a secure environment for both patients and researchers, encouraging further exploration of stem cell applications in neurology.
Moreover, Malaysia's participation in international collaborations and forums on stem cell research enhances knowledge exchange and promotes best practices. Such initiatives also help align Malaysian standards with global benchmarks, further establishing the country as a key player in stem cell therapy research.
Challenges and Ethical Considerations
Despite the promising outlook, the adoption of stem cell therapy in treating neurological disorders faces several challenges. One major concern is the accessibility and affordability of these treatments. While advancements in research are encouraging, the cost of stem cell therapies can be prohibitively high for many patients in Malaysia. As a result, healthcare providers and policymakers must work collaboratively to develop strategies that make these treatments more accessible to the broader population.
Ethical considerations also play a significant role in the implementation of stem cell therapies. Issues surrounding the sourcing of stem cells, informed consent, and the potential for exploitation must be carefully navigated. The Malaysian Medical Council has established guidelines to address these ethical dilemmas, ensuring that patients’ rights are protected and that treatments are conducted with integrity.
The Patient Perspective
For patients suffering from neurological disorders, stem cell therapy offers hope where traditional treatments may have fallen short. Many families in Malaysia have turned to stem cell therapy as a last resort after exhausting conventional treatment options. Anecdotal evidence suggests that patients have reported significant improvements in their conditions, leading to a growing demand for stem cell treatments.
Support groups and patient advocacy organizations are also emerging, providing resources and information to individuals considering stem cell therapy. These organizations play a crucial role in raising awareness about the potential benefits and risks associated with such treatments, helping patients make informed decisions.
Conclusion
The impact of stem cell therapy on neurological disorders in Malaysia is a developing narrative filled with promise and challenges. With ongoing research, regulatory support, and a growing patient base, Malaysia is poised to become a leader in stem cell therapy in the region. As advancements continue, the hope is that stem cell therapy will not only enhance the quality of life for those affected by neurological disorders but also contribute to the global understanding of regenerative medicine. The journey of stem cell therapy in Malaysia is one of hope, innovation, and a commitment to improving healthcare outcomes for all.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) | National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke
https://www.ninds.nih.gov/health-information/disorders/amyotrophic-lateral-sclerosis-als
Who is more likely to get amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)?
A risk factor is a condition or behavior that occurs more frequently in those who have a disease, or who are at greater risk of getting a disease, than in those who don't have the risk factor. Having a risk factor doesn't mean a person will develop a disorder, and not having a risk factor doesn't mean you won’t. Risk factors for ALS include:
Age—Although the disease can strike at any age, symptoms most commonly develop between the ages of 55 and 75.
Biological sex—Men are slightly more likely to develop ALS than women. However, at older ages, men and women are equally likely to be diagnosed with ALS.
Race and ethnicity—Whites and non-Hispanics are most likely to develop the disease, but ALS affects people of all races and ethnic backgrounds.
Some studies suggest military veterans are about one and a half to two times more likely to develop ALS, although the reason for this is unclear. Possible risk factors for veterans include exposure to lead, pesticides, and other environmental toxins. Some studies have also shown that head injury can be associated with higher risk for ALS, but more research is needed to understand this connection.

Evan Chandler's dental office received endless hate calls from Jackson supporters, some from as far away as Great Britain. The receptionist for Dr. Chandler and his partner in the practice spent a good deal of her day on the phone fielding serious-sounding death threats. Outside the building, threatening and lewd graffiti splotched the sidewalk in giant red-painted letters.
At the same time, Evan Chandler was privately suffering from a rare metabolic disorder called Gaucher (pronounced: go-SHAY) disease, a hereditary condition that is most prevalent in the Ashkenazi Jewish population, Jews of eastern European ancestry. It occurs only if both parents carry the genetic mutation. Experts estimate there are only ten thousand to twelve thousand Americans who have it.
The disease causes a slow and painful deterioration. In 1993, the treatment options were extremely limited. Evan was not undergoing any treatment.
The bodies of Gaucher patients are engaged in a daily attack upon themselves and there is no cure, according to Dr. Roscoe O. Brady, chief of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. Certain cells that healthy bodies simply slough off cannot be expelled by someone with Gaucher disease. The cells stubbornly stay in the body, lodging in the organs, bones, and in some cases the brain. The most common symptoms are enlargement of the liver and spleen, anemia, reduce platelets (resulting in easy bruising and long clotting times), bone pain referred to by medical experts as 'bone crisis,' and an extreme weakening of the skeleton and joints that lead to spontaneous fractures in the spine, hips, and shoulders.
Sufferers can literally hemorrhage to death or die of liver failure or any host of organ shutdowns, and they have an increased risk of multiple myeloma, a slow-growing type of cancer in the bones. Gaucher patients often wind up in wheelchairs, their mobility lost to the ravages of the disease. 'If untreated, it is one of the worst diseases known to man,' Dr. Brady said.
While obsessed Michael Jackson fans were leaving decapitated rats in shoe boxes on the doorstep of his home, he continued his private struggle against Gaucher disease.
Eventually, the attacks by Jackson fans and the media frenzy got so bad that Chandler's dental partner took him aside and told him it would be better for all involved if he left the practice.
