Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a newly described disorder that occurs in premutation carriers of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene. Fifty-six patients with FXTAS were given 98 prior diagnoses: most were in the categories of parkinsonism, tremor, ataxia, dementia, or stroke. Data from this study and others were used to develop guidelines for FMR1 diagnostic testing for FXTAS.
脆性X相关震颤/共济失调综合征(FXTAS)是一种新描述的疾病,发生于脆性X智力低下1(FMR1)基因前突变携带者中。56例FXTAS患者之前有98次诊断:大多数属于帕金森综合征、震颤、共济失调、痴呆或中风类别。本研究及其他研究的数据被用于制定FMR1基因FXTAS诊断检测指南。
