An update on Spino-cerebellar ataxias

TL;DR: Using the fulcrum of these mechanisms, the article provides an update of SCAs and emphasis has been placed on the mechanisms of polyglutamate toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association Between Leukoaraiosis and Saccadic Oscillation

TL;DR: Saccadic oscillations in the ENG examination indicated leukoaraiosis on the magnetic resonance imaging scan, with a sensitivity of 72% and a specificity of 78%.

Topical Review: Clinical Aspects of Hereditary Ataxias:

TL;DR: This review summarizes the clinical features of the various hereditary ataxias with known gene loci, as well as others that are now defined on a clinical basis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autosomal recessive ataxia, slow eye movements and psychomotor retardation.

TL;DR: The syndrome of autosomal recessive ataxia and slow or even absent saccades is proposed to be related but not identical to the autosomal dominant form known as the Wadia Swami syndrome, both of which seem to berelated to the olivopontocerebellar degenerations.
Journal ArticleDOI

A 17th-century founder gives rise to a large north American pedigree of autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia not linked to the SCA1 locus on chromosome 6.

TL;DR: The pedigree reported here will be valuable in the identification and cloning of a gene for hereditary ataxia, designated “SCA2” at the Eleventh International Workshop on Human Gene Mapping.
