Spinocerebellar Degenerations in Japan
SCA type 6 in 20.0%, ADCA linked to chromosome 16q22.1 in 10.0%, dentatorubral pallidoluysian atrophy in 4.4%, SCA type 1 in 1.1% and SCA type 2 in 1.1%.

متن کاملVisual Suppression is Impaired in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 6 but Preserved in Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.
Positional vertigo is a common neurologic emergency and mostly the etiology is peripheral. However, central diseases may mimic peripheral positional vertigo at their initial presentation. We here describe the results of a visual suppression test in six patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6), a central positional vertigo, and nine patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (B...
متن کاملCharacteristics of the fastest isometric knee extension in patients with spinocerebellar degenerations.
The force output of the knee extensor muscles and its time course were measured in nine patients with spinocerebellar degenerations and age-matched 10 normal subjects during the fastest and strongest isometric contraction. The time from the rise of tension to its maximum, FTmax, was definitely long in the SCD compared to the normal group, whereas the peak tension was not different between the t...

Baseline plasma Cortisol levels and response to dexamethasone in a group of twenty five patients with ma) or depressive disorder (MDD) and a control group of twenty five patients with psychiatric diagnoses other than MDD were estimated. The results of our study show that dexamethasone suppression test (DST) is a useful diagnostic aid in MDD with melancholia with a sensitivity of 46% and specifi...
متن کاملVisual Surround Suppression in Schizophrenia
Compared to unaffected observers patients with schizophrenia (SZ) show characteristic differences in visual perception, including a reduced susceptibility to the influence of context on judgments of contrast - a manifestation of weaker surround suppression (SS). To examine the generality of this phenomenon we measured the ability of 24 individuals with SZ to judge the luminance, contrast, orien...
