Loss of ANK3 Function Causes a Recessive Neurodevelopmental Disorder with Cerebellar Ataxia
Abstract Background ANK3 encodes ankyrin‐G, a key scaffolding protein essential for neuronal function. While both monoallelic and biallelic ANK3 variants have been linked to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), existing evidence for their pathogenicity and clinical correlation remains limited and heterogeneous.

Acute hemichorea‐hemiballism as the initial sign of cortical cerebral infarction: A case report
Abstract Hemichorea‐hemiballism is classically associated with the contralateral basal ganglia, particularly involving the putamen and subthalamic nucleus, whereas cortical involvement remains a rare etiology. In this case, we present a patient with acute hemichorea‐hemiballism secondary to multiple cortical infarcts demonstrated by neuroimaging.
