Presentation
Means are therefore presented for all values, except for the time from the appearance of the first clinical criterion to the diagnosis of SLE, for which mean and median values are presented. [nejm.org]
Patients typically present with a variety of symptoms including spastic-dystonic paraparesis, Parkinsonism, cognitive impairment, obsessive-compulsive disorder. Coenzyme A (CoA) synthase (gene: CoASY ) is a cofactor involved in enzymatic reactions. [radiopaedia.org]
However, the results of the present study suggested that there is no uniform pattern of changes in methylation due to aging; it varies with the gene. [journals.plos.org]
Treatment considerations in BPAN •In childhood, the most challenging problem is refractory seizures, although only present in a minority of patients. [slideshare.net]
At present, it appears that onset usually occurs in childhood and spasticity and dystonia of the lower limbs are present early on, while dystonia of the mouth and jaw appears later in the disease process. [nbiadisorders.org]

MANAGEMENT There is no standard treatment for CoPAN. Diagnosed individuals are managed by a team of medical professionals that recommends treatments based on current symptoms. [nbiacure.org]
Treatment may require the coordinated efforts of a team of specialists. [nbiadisorders.org]
Otherwise, you degrade the statistical power of the trial to detect any benefit of the treatment. [psp-blog.org]
Prognosis
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a hypervascular tumor associated with a poor prognosis and a lack of effective treatments. Consequently, identifying novel therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. [web.hku.hk]

Pathophysiology
The varying pathophysiology of these disorders is also reflected in the variable response to therapy, which ranges from complete cure in acrodermatitis enteropathica to the virtual absence of effective treatment options in molybdenum cofactor deficiency [accesspediatrics.mhmedical.com]

Nevertheless, the pathophysiological mechanism of XAF1 is still not clear. XAF1 is a 37kDa nuclear protein, comprising of 317 amino acids and having two mRNA spicing variants (16). The domain architecture and structure of XAF1 is unknown. [web.hku.hk]
