TL;DR: A novel measure of disease progression and a genome-wide significant signal on chromosome 5 spanning three genes: MSH3, DHFR, and MTRNR2L2 is generated, suggesting this mechanism as an area for future therapeutic investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antiphospholipid-related chorea.
Silvio Peluso,Antonella Antenora,Anna De Rosa,Alessandro Roca,Gennaro Maddaluno,Vincenzo Brescia Morra,Giuseppe De Michele +6 more
TL;DR: Patients affected by aPL-related chorea have an increased risk of thrombosis and should receive antiplatelet or anticoagulant treatment, and neuroimaging investigation does not provide much additional diagnostic information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conversion of individuals at risk for spinocerebellar ataxia types 1, 2, 3, and 6 to manifest ataxia (RISCA): a longitudinal cohort study
Heike Jacobi,Sophie Tezenas du Montcel,Sandro Romanzetti,Florian Harmuth,Caterina Mariotti,Lorenzo Nanetti,Maria Rakowicz,Grzegorz Makowicz,Alexandra Durr,Marie Lorraine Monin,Alessandro Filla,Alessandro Roca,Ludger Schöls,Holger Hengel,Jon Infante,Jun Suk Kang,Dagmar Timmann,Carlo Casali,Marcella Masciullo,Laszlo Baliko,Béla Melegh,Wolfgang Nachbauer,Katrin Bürk-Gergs,Jörg B. Schulz,Olaf Riess,Kathrin Reetz,Thomas Klockgether,Thomas Klockgether +27 more
TL;DR: The conversion to manifest ataxia among apparently healthy carriers of mutations associated with the most common SCAs, and the sensitivity of clinical and functional measures to detect change in these individuals, was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degenerative and acquired sporadic adult onset ataxia.
Maria Lieto,Alessandro Roca,Filippo M. Santorelli,Tommasina Fico,Giovanna De Michele,Marta Bellofatto,Francesco Saccà,Giuseppe De Michele,Alessandro Filla +8 more
TL;DR: The diagnosis of sporadic adult onset ataxia is a challenging task since a large collection of hereditary and non-hereditary disorders should be taken into consideration.
Journal ArticleDOI
A wearable proprioceptive stabilizer for rehabilitation of limb and gait ataxia in hereditary cerebellar ataxias: a pilot open-labeled study.
Luca Leonardi,Maria Gabriella Aceto,Christian Marcotulli,Giuseppe Arcuria,Mariano Serrao,Francesco Pierelli,Paolo Paone,Alessandro Filla,Alessandro Roca,Carlo Casali +9 more
TL;DR: Preliminary evidence that focal mechanical vibration exerted by a wearable proprioceptive stabilizer might improve limb and gait ataxia in patients affected by hereditary cerebellar ataxias is shown.
