Functional cognitive disorders: How to diagnose and manage them? Discussion based on a clinical case

PubMed - functional neurological disorder AND differential diagnosis Published 03 Sep 2026 Relevancy: 96%

Functional cognitive disorder (FCD) is a frequent and underrecognized cause of cognitive complaints. Long regarded as a diagnosis of exclusion, conceptual advances have allowed this condition to be integrated within the nosological framework of functional neurological disorders, and to be approached through a positive definition based on the identification of internal inconsistency signs. Nevertheless, establishing a diagnosis of FCD can prove challenging in clinical practice, particularly due...

Multimodal MRI biomarkers and machine learning in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder: a review

PubMed - functional neurological disorder AND differential diagnosis Published 02 Sep 2026 Relevancy: 77%

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that can result in substantial cumulative neurological disability. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a central role in lesion detection, differential diagnosis, and longitudinal assessment. However, conventional MRI may not fully capture subtle tissue damage and may show substantial overlap with related inflammatory demyelinating disorders in clinically ambiguous...

Phenotypic Spectrum, Diagnostic Challenges, and Clinical Outcomes in Stiff Person Syndrome: A Single-Center Case Series

PubMed - functional neurological disorder AND differential diagnosis Published 26 Aug 2026 Relevancy: 96%

Introduction: Stiff-Person Syndrome (SPS) is a rare autoimmune neurological disorder characterized by progressive muscle rigidity and painful spasms, primarily affecting axial and proximal musculature. Its diagnosis can be challenging due to clinical overlap with other neurological conditions such as spasticity, dystonia, or functional movement disorders. The detection of antibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase (anti-GAD) is a key biomarker that supports diagnosis. Methods: Two clinical...

Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS): A Review

PubMed - POTS AND functional neurological disorder Published 24 Aug 2026 Relevancy: 88%

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: POTS is a chronic autonomic disorder associated with functional impairment and reduced quality of life that is diagnosed based on characteristic orthostatic symptoms in the absence of orthostatic hypotension after excluding alternative causes of sinus tachycardia. Treatment involves nonpharmacological measures (such as increased fluid and sodium intake), lower-body compression garments, structured exercise training, and individualized pharmacological therapy.

When Nausea and Vomiting Are Something Else Entirely, It's Not Gastroparesis: A Report of Two Cases

PubMed - functional neurological disorder AND differential diagnosis Published 16 Aug 2026 Relevancy: 75%

Gastroparesis, a chronic motility disorder, is a diagnosis of exclusion that necessitates careful evaluation for structural and surgically correctable causes. Although the medical differential diagnosis emphasizes functional etiologies, anatomic abnormalities are often under-recognized despite guideline recommendations for thorough endoscopic and structural assessment. Symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, early satiety, and delayed gastric emptying may be indistinguishable from true motility...
