Abstract Background Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) is a heterogeneous group of heritable, mostly recessive, progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by iron deposition in the basal ganglia and brainstem. There are no solid global epidemiological data on prevalence and incidence of NBIA subtypes, but registry data and ...

Key Interventions in Friedreich's Ataxia and Their Impact on Patient Outcomes: A Systematic Review
Abstract Friedreich's ataxia (FA) is a rare neurodegenerative disease with multisystemic symptoms that requires multidisciplinary care. This systematic review summarizes available pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions, their outcomes, and alignment with patient‐centered care domains, as well as their impact on these domains.

Abstract Background NKX2‐1–related disorders (NKX2‐1‐RDs) classically present with a triad of neurological, endocrine, and pulmonary manifestations, including benign hereditary chorea. However, in a fraction of patients, NKX2‐1 coding variants are not detected, and variants outside the NKX2‐1 locus have been reported.

Abstract Background SCA27B is a recently described ataxia, the precise anatomical basis of which remains unclear. Objective The goal was to characterize the structural brain and spinal cord magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signature of spinocerebellar ataxia 27B (SCA27B) using multimodal quantitative imaging.

Abstract Background Association between monoallelic STUB1 variant and expanded ATXN8OS alleles was recently reported, suggesting a pathogenic interaction that may influence spinocerebellar ataxia type 48 (SCA48) phenotype. Objectives We investigated the frequency and clinical impact of ATXN8OS in a large cohort of STUB1 carriers compared to individuals
