Abstract

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) or Hereditary Motor and Sensory Neuropathy (HMSN) is the most common hereditary peripheral nerve disease with progressive chronic weakness, muscle atrophy, and sensory disturbances. There are several types and subtypes of CMT with their respective clinical manifestations. In this article, we reported a patient with of CMT type X. A 43-year-old male patient was referred to a neurology clinic with weakness in both limbs for 2 years, accompanied by tingling and sensory disturbance in both hands and feet. There are several of his family members who had similar complaints. Lumbosacral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination revealed mild nucleus pulposus herniation. Electroneuromyography (ENMG) examination revealed demyelinating sensory motor polyneuropathy. Histopathological examination of nerve biopsy showed demyelination of the sural nerve. It is hard to make a diagnosis of CMT, because it requires high suspicion from clinicians once encounter a suspected case and also need to supported by sophisticated equipment such as electrophysiological examinations, nerve biopsy examinations, and genetic examinations. It is vital for clinicians for being able to diagnose CMT correctly and provide treatment as soon as possible in order to maintain the patients’ quality of life.

Abstract

Background: Cognitive impairment is mostly affected the elderly population which reduces the quality of life for sufferers and their families. The last research showed that listening to Balinese flute instrument music increased cognitive function, especially in the memory domain. However, the study is still limited to small populations. Objective: to determine whether playing the Balinese flute with or without listening to the "Morning Happiness" song affects the cognitive function of elderly. Methods: This experimental study was conducted on healthy geriatric patients above 55 years old with controlled risk factors or no history of any chronic conditions which were divided into 2 groups. The "Morning Happiness" song will be played with Balinese flute instrument in both groups whereas the intervention will add to listen to similar songs. Results: 28 subjects in the intervention group and 20 subjects in the control group. Both groups were comprised of typical gender distribution with an average of 65.08±6.41 years old. Both the intervention and control groups had improved in MoCA-Ina (The Indonesian Version of Montreal Cognitive Assessment) scores, but the intervention group gained a better Z-score (-3.193, p-value 0.001) than the control group (-1.466, p-value 0.143) after procedural. The delayed recall domain also showed significant improvement in both groups with a Z-score of -3.241 (p-value 0.001) in control and -2.30 (p-value 0.026) in intervention group respectively. Interestingly, the attention domain is improved in the control group with a Z-score of -2.142 (p-value 0.032) rather than in intervention group. Conclusion: The overall MoCa-Ina score was significantly higher in interventional subjects than control, specifically in the delayed recall domain.
