Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated changes in biological, clinical, and imaging markers in carriers of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) types 2 and 7 over one year, focusing on MRI and neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels.
- - It included assessments of neurological function, quality of life, and brain imaging among 15 SCA2 carriers, 15 SCA7 carriers, and 10 control subjects, while noting differences in SARA scores and brain volume from baseline measurements.
- - Results indicated significant brain volume loss and worsening motor function in SCA2 carriers, an increase in SARA scores and thinning of retinal layers in SCA7, highlighting the progressive nature of these at
Background: Riluzole has been reported to be beneficial in patients with cerebellar ataxia; however, effectiveness in individual subtypes of disease is unclear due to heterogeneity in participants' causes and stages of disease. Our aim was to test riluzole in a single genetic disease, spinocerebellar ataxia type 2.
Methods: We did a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre trial (the ATRIL study) at eight national reference centres for rare diseases in France that were part of the Neurogene National Reference Centre for Rare Diseases.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is highly prevalent among adults with addictive disorders, but little is known about addiction patterns associated with ADHD diagnosis. This study examined addiction severity in patients with co-occurring addictive disorders and ADHD controlling for the potential influence of associated psychiatric comorbidity. Data were collected in French outpatient addiction treatment centers.
