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]

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]

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]

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]

Entire Body System

  • Movement Disorder

    She has always had a great interest in movement disorders with focus on movement disorder genetics and electrophysiology. She holds a Ph.D. degree in neurosciences from University College London. [books.google.com]

    The movement disorders result in clumsiness, difficulty controlling the body and speech problems. Dystonia, spasticity and visual disorders are common clinical signs. [nbiadisorders.org]

    Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) comprises a heterogeneous group of inherited neurodegenerative disorders collectively characterized by extrapyramidal movement disorders and abnormal iron accumulation in the deep basal ganglia nuclei [jstage.jst.go.jp]

    […] of major cognitive/psychiatric abnormalities early in the disease, thus distinguishing it from HD. • The most common movement disorder on presentation is chorea (50%), f/b focal dystonia (43 %) and parkinsonism (7.5%). 80. [slideshare.net]

  • Pallor

    Histopathologically, it is identified by the infiltration of monocytes and macrophages into the central nervous system (CNS), gliosis, pallor of myelin sheaths, abnormalities of dendritic processes and neuronal loss. [1] [2] ADC typically occurs after [en.wikipedia.org]

Gastrointestinal

  • Muscle Rigidity

    MalaCards based summary : Coasy Protein-Associated Neurodegeneration, also known as neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 6, is related to neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 6, and has symptoms including muscle rigidity, paraparesis [malacards.org]

Skin

  • Alopecia

    A syndrome of hypogonadism, alopecia, diabetes mellitus, mental retardation, deafness, and ECG abnormalities. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    In addition to these general symptoms, which are shared across the NBIAs, there are 10 distinct subtypes which exhibit several additional features including psycho-social difficulties, speech decline, cognitive decline, diabetes, and alopecia. [invitae.com]

    The inhibition of this enzyme may play a role in the treatment of Alzheimer's and other acute or chronic neurodegenerative diseases, as well as diabetes and obesity, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, alopecia and cancer. [google.com.na]

    • In addition to the neurological manifestations, characteristic phenotypic abnormalities including • Dysmorphic facial appearance, • Alopecia, polyendocrinopathies (diabetes mellitus, hypogonadism), sensorineural hearing loss, and • specific electrocardiogram [slideshare.net]

Psychiatrical

  • Suggestibility

    These findings suggested that changes in DNA methylation in the COASY and SPINT1 promoter regions are influenced by various factors. [journals.plos.org]

    The amount of virus in the brain does not correlate well with the degree of dementia, suggesting that secondary mechanisms are also important in the manifestation of ADC. [en.wikipedia.org]

    Similarly, another analysis of observational data conducted in 2012 suggested that tea consumption may have a favorable effect on lung cancer risk. [wikivisually.com]

    Finally, a doctor suggested the whole-exome sequencing test, a more comprehensive look at a person’s genes used to identify rare, genetic disorders. “Genetics is a puzzle and you need all the pieces of your puzzle,” said Watiker. [losangeles.cbslocal.com]

  • Psychiatric Symptoms

    While taking dopaminergic drugs, individuals must be regularly monitored for adverse neuropsychiatric effects, psychiatric symptoms and worsening of parkinsonism. There is often short-term great benefit from Parkinsons medications. [nbiacure.org]

    Psychiatric symptoms are more frequent in the later onset form. Retinal degeneration is common, particularly in classic PKAN. PLAN, or PLA2G6-Associated Neurodegeneration, is named for the responsible gene, PLA2G6. [nbiadisorders.org]

Neurologic

  • Dystonia

  • Seizure

    Then at 6 months old, Madison was hospitalized after having a seizure. Doctors told them Madison had a lack of development in her brain but could not tell them why. “We wanted answers,” said her mother. [losangeles.cbslocal.com]

    Treatment considerations in BPAN •In childhood, the most challenging problem is refractory seizures, although only present in a minority of patients. [slideshare.net]

    Individuals experiencing seizures usually benefit from standard anti-convulsive drugs. In addition, standard approaches to pain management are generally recommended where there is no identifiable treatment for the underlying cause of pain. [nbiadisorders.org]
