Summary Introduction
To determine:
The definition of neural tube defect and its causes.
The terms spina bifida occulta, spina bifida cystica, microcephaly, and anencephaly and things that can be done to minimize these risks.
Introduction:
The myelin sheath is an insulating covering around the nerve cell. It is formed by oligodendrocyte glial cells in the CNS and Schwann glial cells in the PNS. The composition of the myelin sheath is basically of the plasma membrane of the glial cells. The formation of the myelin sheath is termed as myelination.

- Mysterlous Paralysis Like a polio ward from the 1950s is how Guy McKhann, M.D., a neurology specialist at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, describes a ward of Beijing Hospital that he visited on a trip to China in 1986. Dozens of paralyzed children some attached to respirators to assist their breathing filled the ward to over owing. The Chinese doctors thought the children had Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), a rare paralytic condition, but Dr. McKhann wasn't convinced. There were simply too many stricken children for the illness to be the rare Guillain-Barre syndrome. Was it polio as some of the Beijing staff feared? Or was it another illness, perhaps one that had not yet been discovered? Which division(s) of the nervous system may be involved in Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS)?

Emergency personnel arrived within minutes, and upon recognizing the seriousness of Jason's back injury, immobilized his neck and secured him to a rigid board prior to transporting him to the emergency room of the nearest hospital. When he arrived at the hospital, Jason was conscious and complained of pain in his lower back. Upon examination by the emergency room personnel, Jason was found to have numerous abrasions and contusions, and loss of both sensation and motor control of his legs. After he was stabilized, a complete neurological exam was performed to assess and localize Jason's injury.
