Various factors can contribute to sleep terrors, such as: Sleep deprivation and extreme tiredness Stress Sleep schedule disruptions, travel or sleep interruptions Fever Sleep terrors sometimes can be triggered by underlying conditions that interfere with sleep, such as: Sleep-disordered breathing — a group of disorders that include abnormal breathing patterns during sleep, the most common of which is obstructive sleep apnea Restless legs syndrome Some medications Mood disorders, such as depression and anxiety In adults, alcohol use Risk factors Sleep terrors are more common if family members have a history of sleep terrors or sleepwalking.
The Inab phenotype is associated with CHAPLE syndrome (226300) in some individuals. Clinical Features Inab Phenotype Daniels et al. (1982) reported a 27-year-old Japanese man, designated 'Inab,' whose red blood cells failed to react with anti-Cr(a) sera and with 3 Cromer-related sera, designated BP, GT, and KTO.
All affected males had significant contractures of the Achilles tendon and hamstrings, short neck, and a mechanically limited range of neck flexion and extension analogous to bent spine syndrome. All affected individuals had scoliosis, back pain, gait problems, and elevated creatine kinase (CK) levels.
X-linked myopathy with postural muscle atrophy is a rare progressive muscular dystrophy characterized by an adult-onset scapulo-axio-peroneal myopathy. Clinical presentation includes shoulder girdle atrophy, scapular winging, axial muscular atrophy of postural muscles combined with a generalized hypertrophy. Typically, neck rigidity, rigid spine, Achilles tendon shortening, and respiratory insufficiency later in disease course are present.
One died at age 9 years from complications of a bone marrow transplant, whereas another died from the nephrotic syndrome and recurrent infections at age 18 months.
Combined immunodeficiency (CID) due to STIM1 deficiency is a form of CID due to Calcium release activated Ca2+(CRAC) channel dysfunction (see this term) characterized by recurrent infections, autoimmunity, congenital myopathy and ectodermal dysplasia. Epidemiology To date, it has been reported in 4 patients from two families. Clinical description CID due to STIM1 deficiency is characterized by recurrent viral, bacterial, mycobacterial and fungal infections from birth, chronic diarrhea, pneumonia, meningitis, enteritis, gastrointestinal candidiasis, sepsis and otitis media. In addition, patients present at birth with congenital myopathy (see this term), characterized by non-progressive generalized muscular dysplasia. This presents as global muscular hypotonia and partial iris hypoplasia.
Lefebvre et al. (2012) concluded that in many respects, their results mirrored those reported for Dscam1 (Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule; 602523) in Drosophila: this complex gene encodes thousands of recognition molecules that exhibit stochastic expression and isoform-specific interactions, and mediate both self-avoidance and self/nonself discrimination.
Divry et al. (1988) reported a brother and sister with N-acetylaspartic aciduria and a neurologic syndrome associated with macrocephaly and leukodystrophy.
Mild Canavan disease (CD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by mild speech delay or motor development. Epidemiology Mild CD has been identified in only a few cases. The majority of patients with Canavan disease have the severe form (see this term). In contrast to the severe CD, most mild CD patients are not from Ashkenazi Jewish descent. Clinical description Mild CD usually presents in childhood with mild developmental delay or problems with speech or motor development. Head circumference is usually normal. Retinitis pigmentosa (see this term) may be present. .
Koletzko et al. (1987) suggested that red hair is linked to ataxia-deafness-retardation syndrome (208850). Eiberg and Mohr (1987) reviewed Danish material of normal families that had been tested previously for 65 marker systems.
A number sign (#) is used with this entry because of evidence that tubular aggregate myopathy-2 (TAM2) is caused by heterozygous mutation in the ORAI1 gene (610277) on chromosome 12q24. For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of TAM, see TAM1 (160565). Clinical Features Shahrizaila et al. (2004) reported a family in which a mother and her 3 children had myopathy with tubular aggregates associated with pupillary abnormalities. The mother and 2 sons had late adult-onset mild proximal muscle weakness with increased serum creatine kinase and areflexia of the lower limbs; the daughter denied muscle weakness but was found to have increased serum creatine kinase and areflexia of the lower limbs. Quadriceps muscle biopsies of the 2 affected sons showed endomysial fibrosis, fatty infiltration, abnormal fiber size variation with atrophic muscle fibers, and tubular aggregates mainly in type 1 fibers. Electron microscopy of 1 son showed that the aggregates contained granular electron-dense material consistent with dilated elements of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Tubular aggregate myopathy is a disorder that affects the skeletal muscles. Signs and symptoms typically begin in childhood and worsen over time. The leg muscles are most often affected, but the arm muscles may also be involved. Symptoms include muscle pain, cramping, weakness or stiffness; and exercise-induced muscle fatigue. Affected individuals may have an unusual walking style (gait) or difficulty running, climbing stairs, or getting up from a squatting position.
Tubular aggregate myopathy is a disorder that primarily affects the skeletal muscles, which are muscles the body uses for movement. This disorder causes muscle pain, cramping, or weakness that begins in childhood and worsens over time. The muscles of the lower limbs are most often affected, although the upper limbs can also be involved. Affected individuals can have difficulty running, climbing stairs, or getting up from a squatting position. The weakness may also lead to an unusual walking style (gait). Some people with this condition develop joint deformities (contractures) in the arms and legs.
A rare congenital myopathy characterized ultrastructurally by the presence of tubular aggregates in the subsarcolemmal region of the muscle fiber. It most commonly presents with slowly progressive proximal muscle weakness predominantly of the lower limbs, periodic paralysis, post-exertion muscle cramps, and muscular pain. Ocular anomalies like ophthalmoplegia or pupillary abnormalities may be associated. The intensity of the symptoms is variable, cases with normal muscle strength but myalgia or fatigue, as well as clinically asymptomatic cases have been described.
Even after recovering, however, some symptoms may persist, including cognitive deficits or Parkinsonian symptoms that can be treated separately.

A hantavirus infection is one that is spread mainly through rodents, insectivores, and bats and cause varied disease syndromes. Each type of hantavirus is carried by a specific host species and phylogenetic analysis revealed that the relationships between hantaviruses generally parallel the phylogeny of their rodent hosts. [11] Treatment [ edit ] The Picardy sweat disease was previously believed to arise from a leaven or a poison that would directly contaminate the blood.
The incidence of VMA is reported as high as 84% for patients with macular hole , 100% for patients with vitreomacular traction syndrome , and 56% in idiopathic epimacular membrane . [2] Diagnosis [ edit ] Careful eye examination by an ophthalmologist or optometrist is critical for diagnosing symptomatic VMA.
