Polioencephalomalacia (PEM), also referred to as cerebrocortical necrosis (CCN), is a neurological disease seen in ruminants that is caused by multiple factors, one of which is thiamine depletion in the body. Thiamine (vitamin B1) is a key chemical in glucose metabolism that, when deficient, is most threatening to neurological activity. In addition to altered thiamine status, an association with high sulfur intake has been observed as a potential cause of PEM. Other toxic or metabolic diseases (eg, acute lead poisoning, sodium toxicosis/water deprivation) can result in PEM as well. Cattle, sheep, goat, and other ruminants that are diagnosed with PEM or pre-PEM suffer opisthotonus, cortical blindness, disoriented movement, and eventually fatality, if left untreated. Current data shows that

dbo:abstract
  • Die Zerebrokortikalnekrose (Cerebrocorticalnekrose, CCN, „Hirnrindennekrose“) ist eine bei Wiederkäuern auftretende metabolisch-toxische Gehirnerkrankung (Enzephalopathie) infolge eines Mangels an Thiamin (Vitamin B1). Sie entspricht damit der Beriberi bzw. der Wernicke-Enzephalopathie des Menschen, der Chastek-Paralyse der Pelztiere und der Thiaminmangel-Enzephalopathie der Katze. (de)

Current data shows that the onset of PEM can range from birth to late adulthood. (en)
