Watch and read the Story behind this splendid brothers who end up paralysed when the sun sets on a daily basis.

In the course of the day, 13years-old Shoaib Ahmed and his 9-year-old brother Abdul Rasheed are like another kids - they go external, walk, and play with their acquaintances.
But when the sun sets, the Pakistani brothers grow to be paralysed, and are unable to move or communicate again unless the sun rises.this is the first known report of these signs, and doctors have no idea of what's causing them.

"We took this case as a venture," Javed Akram, a professor of medicine at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, told the Associated Press.
"Our medical professionals are doing scientific tests to determine why these youngsters stay energetic within the day but can't open their eyes, why they cannot talk or eat when the sun goes down."
The brothers were nicknamed the 'Solar boys', and since the start of this year, they have been living under observation in a hospital in Islamabad, Pakistan. Their care is all free and they've undergone more than 300 tests so far.

The very first thing the medical professionals needed to attend into was the idea that the condition was somehow related to sunlight itself, rather than time of day, the boys' father informed the related Press he thought they were getting their energy from the sun.

But that (rather weird) hypothesis has now formally been ruled out, for the reason that the doctors showed that the boys were capable to move around during the day in a dark, enclosed room.
They've also shown that the boys don't seem to be suffering from temporary paralysis caused by nerve damage, or sleep paralysis, which is where the body remains paralysed during REM sleep at the same time the brain stays awake.

It can be more doubtless that the distinct  is somehow concerning genetics - the boys' parents are first cousins, a practice that's not uncommon in Pakistan.
However the doctors are not sure which genes would be having one of these extreme and remoted outcomes on the boys' behaviour.
Two other brothers in the family previously died, apparently from the same condition, but the boys have a sister who's unaffected.
The doctors at the moment are accumulating soil and air samples from the family's home village, and has despatched the brother's blood samples overseas for genetic testing and additional examination.

The strangest a part of the situation is that the boys quite do seem unaffected during the day time.
"i will become a teacher," Shoaib Ahmed told the related Press back in may, while his younger brother mentioned he desired to be an Islamic scholar.
The good news is that the doctors had been trialling a variety of drug treatments on the boys to help relieve the situation, and have had some positive results.
"These boys will now expectantly have a close-normal life with the aid of the drug treatments," Akram told Barcroft Media.

Confidently with more research, we are going to startgetting ideas of what might be inflicting the unusual symptoms in the first place, so they may be able to stop anyone else from going through the same factor.
