Abstract
Immune-mediated neuropathies (IMN) are a heterogenous group of disorders affecting the peripheral nervous system, due to dysregulation of the immune system. It mainly includes Guillain-Barre syndrome, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, multifocal motor neuropathy and so on. Most of these diseases can be clinically improved by appropriate immunotherapy, but some patients still have unsatisfactory results. Therefore, studying the pathophysiology of the occurrence and development of diseases can reveal the nature of diseases and provide a theoretical basis for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases. In this paper, the pathophysiological mechanism of various IMNs is described in detail, with emphasis on immunological mechanism, and the progress of diagnosis and treatment of various IMNs is briefly introduced.
期刊介绍:
Chinese Journal of Preventive Medicine (CJPM), the successor to Chinese Health Journal , was initiated on October 1, 1953. In 1960, it was amalgamated with the Chinese Medical Journal and the Journal of Medical History and Health Care , and thereafter, was renamed as People’s Care . On November 25, 1978, the publication was denominated as Chinese Journal of Preventive Medicine . The contents of CJPM deal with a wide range of disciplines and technologies including epidemiology, environmental health, nutrition and food hygiene, occupational health, hygiene for children and adolescents, radiological health, toxicology, biostatistics, social medicine, pathogenic and epidemiological research in malignant tumor, surveillance and immunization.
