Frequently experiencing feelings of being down, miserable, and/or hopeless; struggling to recover from these moods; having a pessimistic outlook on the future; feeling a pervasive sense of shame; having a low self-worth; experiencing thoughts of suicide and engaging in suicidal behavior.
Dysarthria- MedGen UID:
- 8510
- •Concept ID:
- C0013362
- •
- Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Dysarthric speech is a general description referring to a neurological speech disorder characterized by poor articulation. Depending on the involved neurological structures, dysarthria may be further classified as spastic, flaccid, ataxic, hyperkinetic and hypokinetic, or mixed.
Gliosis- MedGen UID:
- 4899
- •Concept ID:
- C0017639
- •
- Pathologic Function
Gliosis is the focal proliferation of glial cells in the central nervous system.
Spasticity- MedGen UID:
- 7753
- •Concept ID:
- C0026838
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A motor disorder characterized by a velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes with increased muscle tone, exaggerated (hyperexcitable) tendon reflexes.
Torticollis- MedGen UID:
- 11859
- •Concept ID:
- C0040485
- •
- Sign or Symptom
Torticollis is a twisted neck as a result of shortening of sternocleidomastoid muscle. This short and fibrotic muscle pulls the head laterally and rotates the chin and face to the opposite end. Facial asymmetry may be a manifestation (summary by Engin et al., 1997).
Apathy- MedGen UID:
- 39083
- •Concept ID:
- C0085632
- •
- Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Apathy is a quantitative reduction of motivation and the initiation and persistence of goal-directed behavior, where the accompanying emotions, thoughts, and social interactions are also suppressed.
Hyperreflexia- MedGen UID:
- 57738
- •Concept ID:
- C0151889
- •
- Finding
Hyperreflexia is the presence of hyperactive stretch reflexes of the muscles.
Mental deterioration- MedGen UID:
- 66713
- •Concept ID:
- C0234985
- •
- Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Loss of previously present mental abilities, generally in adults.
Gait disturbance- MedGen UID:
- 107895
- •Concept ID:
- C0575081
- •
- Finding
The term gait disturbance can refer to any disruption of the ability to walk. In general, this can refer to neurological diseases but also fractures or other sources of pain that is triggered upon walking. However, in the current context gait disturbance refers to difficulty walking on the basis of a neurological or muscular disease.
Cerebellar atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 196624
- •Concept ID:
- C0740279
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Cerebellar atrophy is defined as a cerebellum with initially normal structures, in a posterior fossa with normal size, which displays enlarged fissures (interfolial spaces) in comparison to the foliae secondary to loss of tissue. Cerebellar atrophy implies irreversible loss of tissue and result from an ongoing progressive disease until a final stage is reached or a single injury, e.g. an intoxication or infectious event.
Gait ataxia- MedGen UID:
- 155642
- •Concept ID:
- C0751837
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A type of ataxia characterized by the impairment of the ability to coordinate the movements required for normal walking. Gait ataxia is characteirzed by a wide-based staggering gait with a tendency to fall.
Gait imbalance- MedGen UID:
- 373028
- •Concept ID:
- C1836150
- •
- Finding
Spastic ataxia- MedGen UID:
- 376528
- •Concept ID:
- C1849156
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Brisk reflexes- MedGen UID:
- 382164
- •Concept ID:
- C2673700
- •
- Finding
Tendon reflexes that are noticeably more active than usual (conventionally denoted 3+ on clinical examination). Brisk reflexes may or may not indicate a neurological lesion. They are distinguished from hyperreflexia by the fact that hyerreflexia is characterized by hyperactive repeating (clonic) reflexes, which are considered to be always abnormal.
Cerebral cortical atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 1646740
- •Concept ID:
- C4551583
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Atrophy of the cortex of the cerebrum.

- •Concept ID:
- C0423083
- •
- Finding
