How to care for hereditary ataxia?

Ataxia seriously affects the patient's gait and ability to perform activities of daily living, resulting in disorders in the randomness of movement, posture stability, balance, and accuracy. Too strenuous activity, high-intensity exercise, exertion, and too much physical activity can worsen the condition. Usually pay attention to the mood and keep the mood happy.

The diet should be rich in protein and vitamins, and sufficient carbohydrates to ensure the nutrients required by the neuromuscular system, which is beneficial to delay the progression of the disease and reduce the occurrence of complications.

Guidance: Correct nursing in life can play a certain role in alleviating the patient's condition, but nursing can only help alleviate the condition, and cannot help control the disease. It is recommended to go to a specialized hospital to receive scientific and reasonable **, so that it can be of real help to the patient's condition.

The conditioning effect of traditional Chinese medicine is very good.

Ataxia can eat fish. Patients with ataxia can eat fish, and it is recommended to eat, fish fat contains -3 fatty acids, which helps to strengthen the brain, it is recommended to eat some walnuts, sesame seeds and other nut foods, which can eliminate impurities in the blood vessels. It is recommended to eat some protein-rich foods, such as milk, eggs, soy products, lean meat macro, etc., and it is recommended to eat some foods rich in vitamin C, which is helpful to improve people's memory.

Increased nutrition in patients with genetic ataxia.

Hereditary ataxia can be carried out by functional ** or support**, but it is only suitable for patients with mild hereditary ataxia, of course, it can also be regulated by traditional Chinese medicine. You can usually eat some whole grains such as whole grains, brown rice, eggs, lemons, pineapples, fish, walnuts, sesame seeds and other foods to improve brain function.

Hereditary ataxia is a group of disorders characterized by progressive balance disorders and limb coordination movement disorders. Due to the complex nature of genetic heterogeneity and phenotypic variation, it is difficult to make an accurate diagnosis based on phenotype alone. Typical cases include progressive walking difficulties, clumsiness, speech or visual disturbances, nystagmus, chanted language, dysmetria, tremor, and gait ataxia.

These are mainly cerebellar signs, but they can also be accompanied by dementia, pyramidal tracts, spinal cord, and peripheral nerve signs. The general order of diagnosing hereditary ataxia is as follows: 1. Confirm that the patient's main feature is ataxia and collect family history data; 2. Exclude non-hereditary** and detect whether there are specific biochemical abnormalities; 3. Do genetic testing.

However, for most hereditary ataxias, there is still a lack of special effects**, and the main ones are exercise**, massage, physiotherapy and other ** to improve symptoms.

Hereditary ataxia (HA) is a group of inherited degenerative diseases of the nervous system with ataxia as the main clinical manifestation. The lesions are mainly located in the spinal cord, cerebellum, and brainstem, so it is also called spinocerehenar brainstem disease, also known as spinocerehenar ataxia (SCAS). More than adult onset (more than 30 years old) manifests as balance disorders, progressive limb coordination movement disorders, gait instability, dysarthria, eye movement disorders, etc., and can be accompanied by complex nervous system damages, such as pyramidal system, extrapyramidal system, visual, auditory, spinal cord, peripheral nerve damage, and can also be accompanied by cerebral cortex function impairment such as cognitive dysfunction and/or mental behavior abnormalities.

It can also be associated with other systemic abnormalities.

Hereditary ataxia is a large group of neurodegenerative diseases inherited from a single gene, and patients have a significant familial genetic background, mainly cerebellar damage. Among them, autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia is the most common.

Hereditary ataxia is a group of chronic degenerative diseases of the central nervous system with ataxia as the main manifestation, the development of the disease is relatively slow, and the external manifestations are different, because this disease may be inherited by recessive genes. Before pregnancy, it is not possible to determine whether the child will get the disease, but after pregnancy, it can be judged by testing genes, and then through amniocentesis, the genetic sequence of the fetus can be known, and the fetus can be separated to know whether the fetus is diseased.

Hereditary ataxia is a group of systemic disorders with clinical manifestations of the nervous system, mainly involving spinal cord, brainstem and cerebellar lesions. There are also common symptoms of hereditary ataxia such as gait balance disorders, coordination dysfunction, dysarthria, eye movement disorders, and complex neurological injuries such as extravertebral system, vision, hearing, peripheral neuropathy, etc., at this time, the main preventive measure is to avoid consanguineous marriage, and then check the carrier's genes to determine whether they are exhumed before pregnancy. Due to various reasons, the brain nerve cells are damaged, and the nerve conduction of the brain tissue is blocked, and the normal innervation cannot be completed, which is the root cause of ataxia.

We should judge the question of what hereditary ataxia is based on the patient's performance, and the inheritance mode is mainly autosomal dominant inheritance, or it may be caused by chromosomal recessive inheritance or linkage inheritance. In addition to the need to pay attention to genetic factors, it is also necessary to pay attention to the harm caused by ataxia in daily life, so as to improve the problems caused by hereditary ataxia in the right way.

Ataxia refers to the impaired coordination of movement in the presence of normal muscle strength. Disturbance of the amplitude and coordination of voluntary movements of the limbs, and inability to maintain body posture and balance. However, it does not include coordination impairment in mild limb paralysis, voluntary movement deviation due to ophthalmoplegia, difficulty in voluntary movement due to visual impairment, and apraxia due to cerebral lesions.

Ataxia can occur in deep sensory, vestibular system, cerebellum, and brain lesions, and is called sensory, vestibular, cerebellar, and cerebral reflux ataxia, respectively, as well as unexplained factors, some with intellectual exhaustion or dementia.

Ataxia is not very familiar to many people, but this disease is a relatively common neurological disease at present, and it is also a very harmful disease.

The root cause of ataxia lies in the damage to the nerve cells in the brain due to various reasons, and the nerve conduction in the brain tissue is blocked, and the normal innervation function cannot be completed.

What is ataxia?

The accurate completion of any movement requires the active and synergistic, antagonistic and fixed muscles that play an active, synergistic, antagonistic and fixed role in different stages of the movement. It is usually divided into four types: cerebellar ataxia, sensory ataxia, vestibular wax ataxia, and cerebral ataxia according to the location of the lesion.

What are the types of ataxia?

Cerebellar ataxia.

The cerebellum plays an important role in the regulation of fine motor and voluntary movements. Cerebellar ataxia usually presents with unsteadiness in standing, widening of the gait base when walking, inability to argue in a straight line, and staggering, so it is also called drunken gait. Difficulty in performing complex and delicate movements, such as dressing, buttoning, and writing, due to coordination of motor disorders.

Cerebellar ataxia.

If it is really a genetic factor, there is definitely no way to avoid it, after all, modifying genes is still not good for the current scientific level, and you can only have symptoms later, or choose to adopt instead.

Hereditary ataxia is a group of inherited disorders characterized by chronic progressive cerebellar ataxia, and the most effective ways to prevent hereditary ataxia are roughly as follows:

1. One of the key points of hereditary ataxia prevention is to carry out genetic counseling to avoid consanguineous marriage, and carriers need to undergo genetic testing;

2. Prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation diagnosis are the best means to control the disease;

3. Pay attention to the pregnancy test, carry out the corresponding pregnancy test in a timely manner in accordance with the regulations of the hospital, and detect and diagnose any abnormalities during pregnancy as early as possible.

4. Pay attention to ensure adequate sleep during pregnancy, scientifically and reasonably arrange sports to enhance resistance, and avoid contact with toxic chemicals and radioactive substances, so as to help prevent the onset of hereditary cerebellar ataxia.

Hereditary ataxia cannot be prevented. It is a genetic degenerative disease characterized by chronic progressive ataxia, so it has a clear familial genetic background. In terms of inheritance, there can be autosomal dominant inheritance, there can also be autosomal recessive inheritance, as well as sex-linked inheritance of ataxia, as well as this ataxia accompanied by mitochondrial diseases, with obvious cerebellar-dominated pathological damage.

At present, there is no better way to prevent these hereditary diseases, so for hereditary ataxia, we cannot prevent it now. Hereditary ataxia, which is mainly present in Tanzhenpei** can give some coenzyme Q10, or antioxidants**. For some patients with mild disease, some supportive** and functional training, as well as for deformities of the spine and feet, some surgical procedures can be used**.

However, at present, these ** can not completely treat the disease**, it may be that the patient will not be able to walk within five years of the appearance of symptoms, and may be bedridden for more than ten years, so there is no better way to prevent and **.

In the case of hereditary ataxia**, most of them use support** and functional training, which reduce symptoms and delay the progression of the disease. Its drug** is mainly levodopamine, which can relieve extravertebral symptoms such as rigidity, and physostigmine or citicoline, which can promote the synthesis of acetylcholine. Ataxia with muscle spasms is preferred**.

In addition to the above-mentioned drugs**, it is also recommended to use drugs with nutritional time such as adenosine triphosphate, coenzyme A, creatinine, vitamin B group, etc., which are conducive to a better recovery of hereditary ataxia.

How is hereditary cerebellar ataxia better? Ataxia is only one symptom, and lesions involving the cerebellum can have ataxia manifestations, and the specific method needs to be combined with comprehensive judgment.

1.Subacute cerebellar degeneration: also known as paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration, it is common in small cell carcinoma of the lung, but also can be seen in ovarian cancer, lymphoma, etc.

It is more common in adult females, with unsteady gait, ataxia of trunk and limbs, and dysarthria and vertigo. ** It is the detection of the primary tumor and early surgery.

2.Acute cerebellar infarction: it is more common in middle-aged and elderly people, mostly accompanied by hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, etc., and patients may have vertigo, dysarthria, ataxia, etc. In the acute stage, anti-platelet aggregation, lipid lowering, nerve nutrition, and circulation improvement are given**.

3.Ataxia telangiectasia syndrome, also known as Louis-Bar syndrome, is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by primary globulin deficiency, with ATM as the causative gene and DNA repair defect as the pathogenesis.

The main manifestations are ataxia, recurrent paranasal sinus and pulmonary infections, and telangiectasia of the bulbar conjunctiva, face, upper eyelids, ears, and neck. Aspect: There is currently no effective method.

Improving immunity and preventing infection are the keys to it. Immunoglobulins, interferon, and thymosin have short-term efficacy.

, most of them are supportive** and functional training, which can reduce symptoms and delay the progression of the disease through support** and functional training.

It is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Hereditary ataxia is a group of inherited degenerative diseases of the nervous system with ataxia as the main clinical manifestation. The lesions are mainly located in the spinal cord, cerebellum, and brainstem, so it is also called spinal-cerebellar-brainstem disease, also known as spinocerebellar ataxia.
