During the Spanish Civil War Madrid was submitted to a prolonged siege. The civilians were only fed with the official diet and suffered severe malnutrition. A group of physicians, represented by Manuel Peraita, studied the epidemic of deficiency diseases in detail. The majority of the complications were neurological. Peraita isolated a relatively unknown paresthesic syndrome possibly related to pellagra. The present is a small homage to a forgotten generation of neurologists.
西班牙内战期间，马德里遭到了长期围困。平民只能靠官方配给的食物为生，饱受严重营养不良之苦。以曼努埃尔·佩拉伊塔为首的一群医生详细研究了营养缺乏疾病的流行情况。大多数并发症都是神经性的。佩拉伊塔分离出一种相对不为人知的感觉异常综合征，可能与糙皮病有关。本文是对被遗忘的一代神经学家的小小致敬。
