Source text - English What is encephalomyelitis?
Encephalomyelitis is the term used to refer to inflammation of both the brain and spinal cord. Encephalomyelitis can be caused by a variety of conditions that lead to irritation of the brain and spinal cord. Among the common causes of encephalomyelitis are viruses which infect the nervous tissues. (An example of a type of virus that can cause encephalomyelitis is the herpes zoster virus.) Persons with encephalomyelitis can exhibit combinations of the various symptoms of either encephalitis or meningitis.
How are encephalitis and meningitis diagnosed?
Encephalitis or meningitis are suggested when the symptoms described above are present. The doctor diagnoses encephalitis or meningitis after a careful examination and testing. The examination includes special maneuvers to detect signs of inflammation of the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord (meninges).
Tests that are used in the evaluation of individuals suspected of having encephalitis or meningitis include blood counts, brain scanning (such as MRI scan), and spinal fluid analysis.
A lumbar puncture is the most common method of obtaining a sample of the fluid in the spinal canal (the cerebrospinal fluid or CSF) for examination. A lumbar puncture (an LP) is the insertion of a needle into the fluid within the spinal canal. It is termed a "lumbar puncture" because the needle goes into the lumbar portion (the "small") of the back. (Less commonly, spinal fluid can also be obtained from other levels of the spine.)
The diagnosis is confirmed by abnormal spinal fluid results.
What is the treatment of encephalitis and meningitis?
Antiviral medications may be prescribed for encephalitis caused by the herpes virus or other severe viral infections. Antibiotics are prescribed for bacterial infections. Anticonvulsants are used to prevent or treat seizures. Corticosteroids are used to reduce brain swelling and inflammation. Sedatives may be needed for irritability or restlessness. Over-the-counter medications may be used for fever and headache.
Individuals with bacterial meningitis are usually hospitalized and treated with antibiotics intravenously. Antiviral drugs may also be prescribed.
Translation - Portuguese O que é encefalomielite?
Encefalomielite é o termo usado para se referir à inflamação do cérebro e da medula espinhal. A encefalomielite pode ser causada por uma variedade de condições que levam à irritação do cérebro e da medula espinhal. Os vírus que infetam os tecidos nervosos estão entre as causas comuns da encefalomielite. (Um exemplo de um tipo de vírus que pode causar encefalomielite é o vírus do herpes-zóster.) Pessoas com encefalomielite podem exibir combinações de vários sintomas de encefalite ou meningite.
Como a encefalite e a meningite são diagnosticadas?
A encefalite ou meningite são sugeridas quando os sintomas descritos acima são apresentados. O médico diagnostica a encefalite ou meningite após um teste e exame cuidadosos. O exame inclui manipulações especiais para detectar sinais de inflamação das membranas em volta do cérebro e da medula espinhal (meninge).
Os testes que são usados na avaliação de indivíduos suspeitos de terem encefalite ou meningite incluem hemogramas, ressonância cerebral (como a RMI), e análise do líquido espinhal.
Uma punção lombar é o método mais comum de se obter uma amostra do líquido no canal espinhal (o líquido cefalorraquidiano ou LCR) para exame. Uma punção lombar (uma PL) é a inserção de uma agulha no líquido dentro do canal espinhal. É chamada de “punção lombar” porque a agulha vai à porção lombar (a “pequena”) nas costas. (De forma menos comum, o líquido espinhal pode também ser obtido de outros níveis da espinha.) O diagnóstico é confirmado pelos resultados anormais do líquido espinhal.
Qual é o tratamento da encefalite e meningite?
Medicamentos antivirais podem ser prescritos para encefalite causada pelo vírus do herpes ou outras infecções virais severas. Antibióticos são prescritos para infecções bacterianas. Anticonvulsivos são usados para prevenir ou tratar convulsões. Corticosteroides são usados para reduzir a inflamação e edema cerebral. Sedativos podem ser necessários para irritabilidade ou agitação psicomotora. Medicamentos vendidos sem receita médica podem ser usados para febre e cefaleia.
Indivíduos com meningite bacteriana são geralmente hospitalizados e tratados com antibióticos de forma intravenosa. Medicamentos antivirais podem também ser prescritos.
Background:
I have a bachelor's degree in Arts (Translation & Interpretation) and over 5 years experience with Translation and Localization in English to Portuguese (BR). My career goes from internship to an autonomous position and IT and videogames subjects are my main specialties developed since them.
My experience with Business Content and as a IT and Videogame Localizer:
I’ve been an IT and Videogame Translator/Localizer from English to Portuguese (BR) since 2012 (although my translation career itself started in 2010). As an IT translator, I have experience with mobile devices app, antivirus softwares and products marketing. As a game localizer, I localized games for PC/xbox360/ps3, which included instruction manuals, character’s dialogues and in-game interface. I also localized Indie games and games for mobile devices.
As for Business, I have translated documents regarding: Human Resources, Corporate Affairs, Contracts, Management and Trade. My main clients for this field are Brazilian Translation Agencies and Law Firms.
Other experiences:
Although my main specialties are IT and Video-games, my first internship was in a pharmaceutical translation company. I learned a lot about the pharma/medical industry and their proceedings and managed to obtain great knowledge in medical translation. Also, I had great experience with engineering/automotive industry and law documents so I have good familiarity with those field too.
