Popis: | The functioning of nervous system can be affected by disturbances in metabolic substrates such as glucose and electrolytes, accumulation of toxic substances and deficiency of essential nutrients such as vitamins. This group of diseases are clinically important because correction of the metabolic disturbance may result in restoration of normal function. The majority of these conditions have relatively non-specific neuropathological features, but some conditions have characteristic gross and microscopic pathology. The clinically relevant conditions and those with characteristic neuropathology are discussed in detail. |
