The “Man-in-the-barrel syndrome” (MBS) makes reference to a picture of bilateral brachial muscular weakness, of proximal predominance, that incapacitates the patients in the execution of functional activities related with the elevation of the upper limbs. Since its description, there are several cases described of patients with this syndrome, whose etiology differs from the first one described. The most frequent causes of MBS are cerebral vascular disorders, the cardiac and extracardiac surgeries with demonstration of arterial hypotension, cerebral metastases, pons and spinal cord involvement. Bilateral brachial paralysis also can cause similar picture. Thus, the pathophysiologic substratum that becomes related it MBS, in some cases, is uncertain and deserves attention.

Cerebral vascular disorders are one of the leading causes of disability and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The article presents the currently available data on risk factors (RF) for the development of cerebrovascular disorders in pre-dialysis patients with CKD. Two groups of RF are identified: traditional and non-traditional (specific). Traditional RF, which include arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolemia, independently affect the cerebral vascular bed and get worse against the background of CKD. Specific RF is associated with features of the CKD pathogenesis. It includes increased blood levels of homocysteine, β2-microglobulin, impaired calcium-phosphorus metabolism, accumulation of uremic toxins and toxins of intestinal bacteria, anemia and other factors. In the present review, special attention is paid to specific RF and pathogenetic mechanisms of the development of cerebrovascular disorders in predialysis patients with CKD. Timely detection of cerebral risk factors may lead to the improvement of early diagnosis and prevention of cerebral vascular disorders, optimization of therapy for patients with CKD.
