English to Portuguese: Encephalitis - Encyclopaedia Britannica Article General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English Inflammation affecting the brain may also involve adjoining structures; encephalomyelitis is inflammation of the brain and spinal cord, and meningoencephalitis is inflammation of the brain and meninges (the membranes covering the brain). Encephalitis is most often caused by an infectious organism and sometimes by such noninfective agents as chemicals, including lead, arsenic, and mercury.
Translation - Portuguese Inflamação que afeta o cérebro e pode também afetar estruturas contíguas. Encefalomielite é uma inflamação do cérebro e da medula espinhal e meningoencefalite é uma inflamação do cérebro e das meninges (membranas que revestem o cérebro). A encefalite é mais comumente causada por um organismo infeccioso e às vezes por agentes químicos não-infecciosos, como o chumbo, o arsênio e o mercúrio.
English to Portuguese: Huntington Chorea - Encyclopaedia Britannica Article General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English A relatively rare, and invariably fatal, hereditary neurological disease that is characterized by irregular and involuntary movements of the muscles and progressive loss of cognitive ability. The disease was first described by the American physician George Huntington in 1872.
Symptoms of Huntington disease usually appear between the ages of 35 and 50 and worsen over time. They begin with occasional jerking or writhing movements, called choreiform movements, or what appear to be minor problems with coordination; these movements, which are absent during sleep, worsen over the next few years and progress to random, uncontrollable, and often violent twitchings and jerks. Symptoms of mental deterioration may appear including apathy, fatigue, irritability, restlessness, or moodiness; these symptoms may progress to memory loss, dementia, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia.
Translation - Portuguese Uma doença neurológica hereditária relativamente rara e inevitavelmente fatal, caracterizada por movimentos musculares irregulares e involuntários e também pela perda progressiva da capacidade cognitiva. Esta doença foi descrita pela primeira vez pelo médico americano George Huntington em 1872.
Os sintomas desta doença surgem geralmente entre os 35 e 50 anos e pioram com o passar do tempo. Eles começam com contrações involuntárias ou movimentos de torção, chamados movimentos coreiformes, ou pequenos problemas de coordenação. Estes movimentos, que não estão presentes durante o período de sono, pioram no decorrer dos anos e evoluem para contrações ou torções involuntárias aleatórias, incontroláveis e muitas vezes violentas. Alguns sintomas de deterioração mental podem ocorrer, como por exemplo, apatia, fadiga, irritabilidade, hiper atividade ou alterações de humor. Estes sintomas podem evoluir para perda de memória, demência, transtorno bipolar ou esquizofrenia.
