Analysis of a Modified Version of the Inventory of Non‐Ataxia Signs Over 12 Years in Patients with Friedreich's Ataxia in the EFACTS Study

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Friedreich's ataxia is a rare, neurodegenerative, multisystem disorder. While ataxia is a hallmark, non‐ataxia signs, including muscle weakness, spasticity, and dysphagia are equally disabling. The Inventory of Non‐Ataxia Signs (INAS) is a symptom list transformable to a 16‐item count.

Cerebellar ataxias and functional movement disorders: navigating clinical overlap

open access: yesBMJ Neurology Open
Background Functional movement disorders (FMDs) are commonly classified along canonical non-ataxic movement disorder patterns, creating a potential blind spot for frequently observed ataxia-like presentations. At the same time, normal diagnostic findings

Multimodal Imaging Investigation of the Dentato‐Thalamo‐Cortical Pathway in Friedreich's Ataxia

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is a spinocerebellar neurodegenerative disorder. The dentato‐thalamo‐cortical (DTC) pathway, an important cerebellar output involved in motor control, plays a crucial role in the neural mechanisms underlying ataxia symptoms in FRDA.

Nerve Ultrasound in Patients With Friedreich Ataxia

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Nerve enlargement has been reported in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FRDA). The underlying cause remains unclear, and both inflammatory processes and dysmyelination have been suggested as potential mechanisms. This study was aimed at assessing nerve morphology with high‐resolution ultrasound, to identify and describe ...

Steroid-responsive Encephalopathy Associated with Autoimmune Thyroiditis (SREAT) Presenting with Pure Cerebellar Ataxia

open access: yesTremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2018
Background: Myoclonus and tremor are common movement disorder phenomenologies in steroid-responsive encephalopathy associated with autoimmune thyroiditis (SREAT). Pure ataxia without encephalopathy has rarely been reported.
