EEG studies were performed in six family members affected by acetazolamide-responsive paroxysmal ataxia. Intermittent rhythmic delta activity was found at rest in five of them; low amplitude spikes were associated with delta waves in two cases, resulting in irregular spike and wave patterns. Slowing of background activity was present in three patients. EEG abnormalities were activated by hyperventilation and modified neither by intermittent photic stimulation, nor by acetazolamide therapy. Our results suggest that EEG may be helpful to recognize this rare, but well defined, treatable disorder.
对六名患有乙酰唑胺反应性阵发性共济失调的家庭成员进行了脑电图（EEG）研究。其中五人在静息状态下发现有间歇性节律性δ活动；两例中低幅棘波与δ波相关，形成不规则棘慢波图形。三名患者存在背景活动减慢。脑电图异常通过过度换气诱发，且不受间歇性光刺激和乙酰唑胺治疗的影响。我们的结果表明，脑电图可能有助于识别这种罕见但明确且可治疗的疾病。
