Neurdle - Neurology Word Game

@neurdle

A daily word-guessing game. Final answers are all related to neurology or neuroscience. Be careful... proper nouns, plurals, and abbreviations are fair game!

Neurdle, May 6, 2025 Moebius syndrome is a rare congenital disorder of heterogenous origin affecting the cranial nerves - most commonly, the 7th (facial) and the 6th (abducens), leading to facial palsy and abnormal eye movements. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36960250/ Guest Neurd Anne Chen

Neurdle, May 7, 2025 Fatal familial insomnia is a rare genetic prion disease causing progressive insomnia with dysautonomia. On path, neuronal depletion can be seen in the thalamus. This may tell us how the thalamus plays a role in autonomic control. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Neurdle, May 8, 2025 What the hecksin is a neurexin? Neurexins are presynaptic cell adhesion proteins that bind with neuroligin to connect neurons at the synaptic cleft. Precise alignment facilitates neurotransmission. bit.ly/3Hdre1w

Neurdle, May 9, 2025: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has both a productive (lytic) phase and a nonproductive (latent) phase. EBV establishes latent infection of B cells - and may trigger development of autoimmune disease. Here's a Nature review on EBV and MS: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC93…

Neurdle, May 10, 2025: Pupils Equal, Round, and Reactive to Light - usually an unnecessary abbreviation, and can be confusing, copied forward without thought, and meaningless. What do you think? (Historical note: the "word" that inspired Zach London to create Neurdle - Neurology Word Game )

Neurdle, May 25, 2025 Guest Neurd @gyriandsulci! Ha! Humor is the best medicine - but gelastic (laughing) seizures come from a hypothalamic hamartoma. Usually only cortical lesions cause seizures, so what do these seizures tell us about epilepsy? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/cn…
