Cardiac arrhythmia- MedGen UID:
- 2039
- •Concept ID:
- C0003811
- •
- Finding
Any cardiac rhythm other than the normal sinus rhythm. Such a rhythm may be either of sinus or ectopic origin and either regular or irregular. An arrhythmia may be due to a disturbance in impulse formation or conduction or both.
Myoclonus- MedGen UID:
- 10234
- •Concept ID:
- C0027066
- •
- Finding
Very brief, involuntary random muscular contractions occurring at rest, in response to sensory stimuli, or accompanying voluntary movements.
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).
Writer cramp- MedGen UID:
- 57821
- •Concept ID:
- C0154676
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A focal dystonia of the fingers, hand, and/or forearm that appears when the affected person attempts to do a task that requires fine motor movements such as writing or playing a musical instrument.
Head tremor- MedGen UID:
- 68690
- •Concept ID:
- C0239882
- •
- Finding
An unintentional, oscillating to-and-fro muscle movement affecting head movement.
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.
Limb dystonia- MedGen UID:
- 152944
- •Concept ID:
- C0751093
- •
- Sign or Symptom
A type of dystonia (abnormally increased muscular tone causing fixed abnormal postures) that affects muscles of the limbs.
Axial dystonia- MedGen UID:
- 373027
- •Concept ID:
- C1836149
- •
- Finding
A type of dystonia that affects the midline muscles, i.e., the chest, abdominal, and back muscles.
Cerebral cortical atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 1646740
- •Concept ID:
- C4551583
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Atrophy of the cortex of the cerebrum.
Dysphonia- MedGen UID:
- 282893
- •Concept ID:
- C1527344
- •
- Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Difficulty in speaking due to a physical disorder of the mouth, tongue, throat, or vocal cords. Associated with a known physical or neurological cause.
- Abnormality of the cardiovascular system
- Abnormality of the nervous system
- Abnormality of the voice
