Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000
There is nothing more discouraging than for a patient to be given a specific diagnosis, then to be told that there is nothing that can be done. Physicians are equally disheartened to see exponential progress being made in the understanding of the pathophysiology of a complex disorder but few direct benefits resulting for their patients. Over the past 5

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2020
Purpose of review Providing an update on the pathophysiology, cause, diagnosis and treatment of cerebellar ataxias. This is a group of sporadic or inherited disorders with heterogeneous clinical presentation and notorious impact on activities of daily life in many cases.

Cerebellar tDCS as Therapy for Cerebellar Ataxias
The Cerebellum, 2022In recent years, a growing body of literature has investigated the use of non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques to influence cerebellar activity and the effects of cerebellar stimulation on other brain regions through its multiple complex projections.

Pathophysiology of cerebellar ataxia
Movement Disorders, 1992AbstractHuman and animal experiments performed recently have resulted in a more detailed understanding of limb movement and body posture disorders associated with cerebellar dysfunction. The delay in movement initiation can be explained by a delay in onset of phasic motor cortex neural discharge owing to decreased input from the cerebellar hemispheres.

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1989
AbstractThis report describes the clinical features of 13 cases of periodic, paroxysmal cerebellar ataxia. A family history suggestive of an autosomal dominant disorder was present in 10 cases, the first two reported Australian families involved with this disorder. Variation in the age of onset, frequency of attacks and the presence of distinct symptom

Neurodegenerative Cerebellar Ataxia
Continuum, 2022Neurodegenerative cerebellar ataxia is a diverse collection of diseases that are unified by gait and balance abnormalities, appendicular incoordination, and abnormalities of eye movement and speech. The differential diagnosis is broad, ranging from paraneoplastic syndromes that progress quite rapidly to unidentified genetic disorders that progress ...

Cerebellar Stimulation in Ataxia
The Cerebellum, 2011The cerebellum plays an important role in movement execution and motor control by modulation of the primary motor cortex (M1) through cerebello-thalamo-cortical connections. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) allows direct investigations of neural networks by stimulating neural structures in humans noninvasively.

Cerebellar and Afferent Ataxias
Continuum, 2013Ataxia is the predominant manifestation of many acquired and inherited neurologic disorders affecting the cerebellum, its connections, and the afferent proprioceptive pathways. This article reviews the phenomenology and etiologies of cerebellar and afferent ataxias and provides indications for a rational approach to diagnosis and management.The ...

Non-cerebellar ataxias: posterior column-like ataxia and cerebellar-like ataxia
Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2023Ataxia is not only due to cerebellar lesions, but also due to non-cerebellar lesions such as those in the brain, spinal cord, dorsal root (DR), peripheral nerve. In this article, optic ataxia is excluded and 'vestibular ataxia' is briefly referred. Non-cerebellar ataxias are generically called sensory ataxia or posterior column ataxia.

Cerebellar Ataxia in the Elderly
Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1992In a retrospective study of 624 elderly patients referred with falls and gait disorders, 45 patients were found to have ataxia. Cerebrovascular diseases were the most common underlying cause of ataxia (15 patients, 37%). Nine patients had hereditary/degenerative cerebellar ataxia. History suggesting alcohol as an underlying cause was established in two
