The grasp reflex is one of the primitive reflexes frequently observed in neurodegenerative diseases. However, quality of life and treatment of the grasp reflex are neglected in the literature. Following two brief case vignettes of patients seen recently who experienced disability from a grasp reflex, we briefly review its phenomenology, anatomy-physiology and epidemiology in neurodegenerative movement disorders, and assess the limited current literature regarding the quality of life and treatment.
抓握反射是神经退行性疾病中经常观察到的原始反射之一。然而,文献中忽略了抓握反射的生活质量和治疗。在最近遇到的两位因抓握反射而导致残疾的患者的简要病例描述之后,我们简要回顾了它在神经退行性运动障碍中的现象学、解剖生理学和流行病学,并评估了关于生活质量和治疗的有限的现有文献。
