Progression markers of Spinocerebellar Ataxia 2. A twenty years neurophysiological follow up study

Nerve conduction is profoundly affected in Spinocerebellar ataxia 2 (SCA2) even before the onset of the disease, but there is no information regarding its progression to the final stage of SCA2. In order to study the progression patterns of nerve conduction abnormalities in SCA2 we performed a prospective follow up evaluation of sensory and motor conduction in 21 SCA2 mutation carriers-initially presymptomatics- and 19 non-SCA2 mutation carriers...
