multiple sclerosis

Etymology
, i.e. appearance of hardenings or nodules dispersed throughout parts of the central nervous system, in the brain or spinal cord. Confusingly, at some point during the 20th century most sources started dropping from the expression, even though sclerosis can occur in the other tissues of the body, in unrelated pathologies.

Noun

 * 1)  A chronic disease of the brain and spinal cord characterized by changes in sensation, visual problems, weakness, depression, difficulties with coordination and speech, impaired mobility and disability.
