We present a case of juvenile onset NIID with a predominantly Parkinsonian presentation, followed later by corticospinal, cerebellar, and lower motor neuron symptoms. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Conclusions : Here, we present a unique case of NIID first presenting with an ET phenotype. The ET phenotype has not been previously described in NIID. [mdsabstracts.org]

• Fecal Incontinence

  Symptoms began in childhood in 2 of the 3 cases, and consisted of urinary and fecal incontinence, erectile dysfunction in the men, and recurrent orthostatic hypotension. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  incontinence cardiomyopathy: reported but uncommon epilepsy: reported but uncommon The diagnosis can be made using peripheral nerve biopsy (e.g. sural nerve) 1 or myenteric plexus biopsy (e.g. rectal biopsy) 2-3. [radiopaedia.org]

• Miosis

  In the sporadic NIID cases with onset age from 51 to 76, dementia was the most prominent initial symptom (94.7%) as designated 'dementia dominant group', followed by miosis, ataxia and unconsciousness. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  In the sporadic NIID cases, dementia was the most prominent initial symptom, followed by miosis, ataxia and unconsciousness. In familial NIID cases, we observed two groups of NIID cases “limb weakness dominant group” and “dementia dominant group”. [sasappa.co.jp]

• Oculogyric Spasm

  A pair of female identical twins exhibited slurred speech, nystagmus, and oculogyral spasms starting at age 11. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Night Blindness

  Purpose To report the findings in a 72-year-old man with neuronal intranuclear hyaline inclusion disease (NIHID) with the negative-type electroretinogram (ERG) and without night blindness. [infona.pl]

• Anger

  This case also showed writhing movements of the head, trunk, and limbs, as well as repetitive outbursts of anger. Postmortem examination revealed severe neuronal loss in the caudate and putamen but not in the substantia nigra or globus pallidus. [karger.com]

• Limb Weakness

  In most cases, the disease begins in childhood. [1] Symptoms of NIID worsen over time and may include dementia, limb weakness, cerebellar ataxia, dystonia, parkinsonism, seizures, and autonomic dysfunction. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

• Dysarthria

  Female monozygotic twins developed upper and lower limb neurogenic weakness in their thirties, followed by cerebellar ataxia, dysarthria and death after an illness duration of about 20 years. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Beginning at 11 years of age, this patient had experienced diffuse muscle spasms, dysarthria, dysphagia, tremors, ataxia, oculogyric crises, progressive muscle weakness, and atrophy. [journals.lww.com]

• Ocular Dysmetria

  We found variable degrees of ocular dysmetria in 2 cases, ataxic dysarthria and limb ataxia in 1, and hyperreflexia in 2. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed cerebellar atrophy in all 3 cases and diffuse cerebral cortical atrophy in 1. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Hyperreflexia

  We found variable degrees of ocular dysmetria in 2 cases, ataxic dysarthria and limb ataxia in 1, and hyperreflexia in 2. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed cerebellar atrophy in all 3 cases and diffuse cerebral cortical atrophy in 1. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

He responded well to levodopa but developed motor fluctuations and disabling dyskinesias after 3 years of treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

However, specific genes known to cause NIID have not yet been found. [1] Currently there is no treatment that cures or slows the progression of NIID, but medications that help control symptoms may improve quality of life. [3] While the disease is ultimately [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

Treatment and prognosis Neuronal intranuclear hyaline inclusion disease (NIHID) is slowly progressive and has no proven therapy. Death usually occurs before the age of 30 years 3. [radiopaedia.org]

Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a progressive disease (worsens over time) and long term prognosis is poor. Still, the course of NIID may vary from person to person. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

Pick disease occurs in a younger age group than dementia of the Alzheimer type, with peak incidence occurring in individuals aged 55-65 years. [12, 13] Prognosis Like most dementias, Pick disease is slowly progressive, leading to increased vocational [emedicine.medscape.com]

There have not effective medication and prevention for NIID. Patient 1 and 2 received symptomatic treatment. Up until now, the patients are alive but the disease is progressing. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This aspect of toxicity is important because it will shape how we develop therapeutics to alleviate or prevent these disorders. [depts.washington.edu]
