These things we suffer all come from the brain, when it is not healthy, but becomes abnormally hot, cold, moist or dry." —Hippocrates The Sacred Disease, Section XVII Taking the patient's history is traditionally the first step in virtually every clinical encounter. A thorough neurologic history allows the clinician to define the patient's problem and, along with the result of physical examination, assists in formulating an etiologic and/or pathologic diagnosis in most cases.[1 ] Solid knowledge of the basic principles of the various disease processes is essential for obtaining a good history. As Goethe stated, "The eyes see what the mind knows." To this end, the reader is referred to the literature about the natural history of diseases. The purpose of this article is to highlight the process of the examination rather than to provide details about the clinical and pathologic features of specific diseases. The history of the presenting illness or chief complaint should

The identification have contributed towards advanced monitoring and analysing of causality often requires precise analysis, as patients fre- of motion. Focusing on Trendelenburg Gait, an abnormal quently present a plethora of compensatory movement pat- gait, a personalisation framework for monitoring and eval- terns. Such compensatory deficits and impairments are often uating the movement is proposed in this paper based on a more noticeable than the underlying cause [15], making the number of factors, such as individuals' body composition, diagnosis process even more challenging. However, quantify- motion mechanisms, capturing process, analysis tools and ing the mobility state of a medical disorder and determining information
