Twenty-four members of a family with benign familial chorea underwent testing for evidence of intellectual impairment. Lower verbal intelligence was found in affected individuals compared to unaffected family members, as were deficits in verbal abstract concept formation. These results challenge the notion that benign familial chorea uniformly spares the intellect in all kindreds.
一个患有良性家族性舞蹈症的家族中的24名成员接受了智力障碍证据测试。与未受影响的家族成员相比,受影响个体的言语智力较低,言语抽象概念形成也存在缺陷。这些结果挑战了良性家族性舞蹈症在所有家族中都不会影响智力的观点。
