  NEUROFIBROMATOSIS TIPO 2 MANIFESTADA COMO SCHWANNOMA VESTIBULAR BILATERAL
La neurofibromatosis tipo 2 es un raro trastorno genético autonómico dominante, de alta penetrancia, caracterizado por la presencia de schwannomas vestibulares bilaterales. El diagnóstico suele ser tardío, en ausencia de antecedentes familiares y estigmas cutáneos, y presenta hipoacusia neurosensorial grave asociada con signos de alteración neurológica.

  ASSOCIAÇÃO ENTRE FUNÇÃO ENDOTELIAL E BALANÇO AUTONÔMICO EM INDIVÍDUOS SAUDÁVEIS (Y MODULACIÓN AUTONÓMICA EN SUJETOS SANOS)
A associação da função endotelial com o balanço autonômico em sujeitos saudáveis, ativos e muito ativos, demonstra a ação (demuestra la acción) simultânea entre respostas biológicas das células endoteliais e estímulos neurohumorais do sistema nervoso autônomo, ambos visando o adequado controle cardiovascular (ambos con vistas al adecuado control cardiovascular).

THERAPEUTIC EFFECT OF FUNCTIONAL ELECTRICAL STIMULATION IN STROKE REHABILITATION
Functional electrical stimulation combined with physiotherapy induced better outcomes in swing phase of the gait cycle, activation of the affected ankle dorisflexor muscles, and cortical function, when compared with conventional physiotherapy alone. FES not only produce orthotic effect but also has therapeutic effect.

  CHOLINERGIC DYSFUNCTION IN MYASTHENIA GRAVIS- IS IT GENERALIZED?
Autonomic function testing was done in patients with myasthenia gravis in remission considering it as an index of generalized cholinergic dysfunction. In seropositive patients significant abnormality was found in frequency domain parameters and a trend was noted in duration domain parameters. There was also statistically significant decrease in time and frequency domain (RMSS and HFMD suggesting parasympathetic deficiency and change in low frequency/high frequency ratio suggesting increased sympathetic tone. This could be due to decrease in ACh signal processing at post ganglionic, preganglionic as well as smooth muscles of the heart. The impact on sympathetic is less because post ganglionic sympathetic synapses are much more than parasympathetic.
