207 results about "Neuritis" patented technology

Neuritis (/njʊəˈraɪtɪs/) is inflammation of a nerve or the general inflammation of the peripheral nervous system. Symptoms depend on the nerves involved but may include pain, paresthesia (pins-and-needles), paresis (weakness), hypoesthesia (numbness), anesthesia, paralysis, wasting, and disappearance of the reflexes.

Pattern analysis of retinal maps for the diagnosis of optic nerve diseases by optical coherence tomography

Methods for analyzing retinal tomography maps to detect patterns of optic nerve diseases such as glaucoma, optic neuritis, anterior ischemic optic neuropathy are disclosed in this invention. The areas of mapping include the macula centered on the fovea, and the region centered on the optic nerve head. The retinal layers that are analyzed include the nerve fiber, ganglion cell, inner plexiform and inner nuclear layers and their combinations. The overall retinal thickness can also be analyzed. Pattern analysis are applied to the maps to create single parameter for diagnosis and progression analysis of glaucoma and optic neuropathy.

Method for the in vitro diagnosis of alzheimer's disease using a monoclonal antibody

The invention relates to a method for the in vitro diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease using a monoclonal antibody. Said antibody can bind at least to amino acids 12-16 of the β-amyloid peptide, specifically detecting the neuritic plaques which are characteristic of Alzheimer's disease, without detecting diffuse plaques which are not defining characteristics of the disease. Within the neuritic plaques, the monoclonal antibody can detect a different sub-group in the composition of the different deposited isoforms of the β-amyloid peptide, which is associated with the disease progression stage. In addition, the antibody can bind to isoforms of the β-amyloid peptide in biological fluids such as urine. As a result, the inventive monoclonal antibody, the cell lines that produce said antibody and compositions containing same can be used in the in vitro diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and in determining the disease progression stage.
