    It's not that you can't **, it's that you haven't found a method and product that can**, you look for it on the Internet, there is a product called cell source that works well, besides, this disease is not hereditary, the previous generation gets the disease, the next generation also has it, which may have something to do with the eating habits in the family. Nutritional deficiencies in the diet, that is, insufficient nutrients in the diet that can nourish brain cells, are caused by family eating habits, eating certain foods in a partial way, or not eating certain foods. If there is anything else you don't understand, please contact me.

    It depends on the cause of brain atrophy, whether it is congenital or acquired, even if it is inherited, it may not be inherited by everyone, how old is your friend now? Isn't it normal now? Don't interfere with yourself, live your own life, what you do is really inherited from yourself, it doesn't matter if you worry about being afraid, so you have to take control of your present and don't worry about it.

    Cerebellar atrophy, also known as spinocerebellar atrophy, spinocerebellar ataxia, abbreviated as SCA, is a family dominant neurological disease, as long as one of the parents is affected by the disease, their children will have a 50% chance of inheriting the disease. After the onset of the disease, these patients walk swayingly, like penguins, so they are called the penguin family.

    The symptoms of the patient after the onset of the disease include uncoordinated movements of the limbs, inability to perform subtle movements, such as lifting the spoon to eat, threading needles and threads, and trembling, excessive reflexes and other symptoms.

    This disease is caused by an abnormally large number of repetition of the nucleotide CAG on the chromosome, and because the CAG repetition sequence is mostly present in the expression sequence (EXON), there is a long chain of glutamine in the protein expressed in its gene, and this abnormal protein causes cell death. The chromosomes repetitively located according to CAG can be subdivided into different types of cerebellar atrophy. SCA3 accounts for 45% of all overt cerebellar atrophy among Chinese in Taiwan

    In Taiwan, it mainly uses PCR molecular biotechnology for screening for cerebellar atrophy type I, II, III, 6, VII and DEPLA. (The following data is the statistics of the Chinese community).

    SCA1: chromosome 6 6p23, CAG repeats 6-36 in normal people, 39-83 in patients

    SCA2: 12th pair of chromosomes (; CAG repetition in normal people is 16-30, and in patients 34-49

    SCA3 (MJD): 14q21 on chromosome 14; CAG repetition in normal people is 13-44, and in patients 63-85

    SCA6: 19th pair of chromosomes, normal CAG repeats 4-16, patients 21-27

    SCA7: Chromosome 3, normal CAG repeats 7-35, patients 37-130

    DEPLA: 12th pair of chromosomes (12p13), normal CAG repetition 6-35, patients 49-88

    If there is a family history of this disease, when the family member is pregnant, fetal villus (12-16 weeks) or amniotic fluid (more than 16 weeks) should be examined to analyze the number of CAG repeats of the SCA gene.

    There is a 50% to 60% chance of cerebellar atrophy in hereditary atrophy, and the symptoms of such patients are unsteady, shaky, and dizzy.

    Here's an answer to that question for you. First of all, there is a cerebellum in the brain. The pituitary gland secretes a substance in the cerebellum that controls our height and our body's ability to balance.

    Cerebellar atrophy is a disease that affects the development and later growth of the fetus. Cerebellar atrophy is hereditary. So we all know that there is a genetic probability of cerebellar atrophy.

    There is no research on how many generations cerebellar atrophy will be inherited.

    Cerebellar atrophy is a familial hereditary neurological lesion of Gaosen, its hereditary nature belongs to the generation, as long as one of the parents suffers from this disease, the offspring have a 50% chance that the disease will be inherited. In the occurrence of cerebellar atrophy, it often leads to the patient's activity impairment, such as unsteady walking, often shaking and shaking, in the appearance of cerebellar atrophy, we must go to the hospital for examination in time, and make a reasonable plan according to the examination.

    Therefore, we need to prevent cerebellar atrophy as early as possible, which can delay the speed of cerebellar atrophy and alleviate some symptoms to a certain extent. For example, quit smoking and alcohol in daily life, have a regular work and rest, and avoid staying up late; Avoid spicy, greasy, high-sugar, and high-salt diets, and appropriately increase foods rich in high-quality protein and vitamins, such as milk, fish, lean meat, fresh fruits, vegetables, etc.; Participate in aerobic exercise, such as swimming, yoga, running, cycling, etc., to enhance resistance and immunity.

    There is little chance that cerebellar atrophy will be inherited.

    Cerebellar atrophy can be caused by a variety of causes, ranging from degenerative changes in brain cells with age, to long-term, heavy alcohol consumption. It may also occur if there is chronic cerebral insufficiency.

    If cerebellar atrophy occurs, it is characterized by dizziness, impaired balance, and ataxia. Intention tremor may occur in some severe cases, and is more common in patients with severe cerebellar atrophy.

    If cerebellar atrophy is mild, there may be no clinical signs or symptoms. During brain CT or brain MRI examination, there may be deepening of the cerebellar sulcus and narrowing of the gyrus, etc., which do not require special **. In severe cases, drugs that improve brain metabolism may improve symptoms, but they do not**.

    There is little chance that cerebellar atrophy will be inherited. Search for envy.

    Cerebellar atrophy can occur for a variety of reasons, ranging from degenerative changes in brain cells that occur with age to long-term, heavy alcohol consumption. It may also occur if the patient has chronic cerebral insufficiency.

    If cerebellar atrophy occurs, patients mainly present with dizziness, impaired balance, and supply disorders, and some patients may present with intentional tremor in severe cases, which is more common in patients with severe cerebellar atrophy.

    Cerebellar atrophy is mostly inherited by autosomal dominance, which means that every person in the patient's offspring has half the probability of inheriting the disease, and if the offspring is unfortunate enough to have the disease, then his offspring will also have a 50% chance of inheriting the disease.

    However, not all spinocerebellar atrophy is inherited, so children of patients can know whether they are at risk of developing the disease through the identification of the disease-causing gene.

    In addition, spinocerebellar atrophy can easily be misdiagnosed for other neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis.

    For example, if cerebellar atrophy is caused by multisystem atrophy, this disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system, which is generally seen in middle-aged and elderly people, and will not be passed on to offspring, most of which are sporadic cases; In addition, if cerebellar atrophy is caused by alcohol poisoning caused by long-term drinking, it will definitely not be passed on to offspring; However, if it is caused by spinocerebellar ataxia, then there is a clear genetic predisposition to this disease, which is generally autosomal recessive, and may be passed on to offspring.

    Can cerebellar atrophy be passed on to the next generation? Want to know some questions about cerebellar atrophy, a disease. I want to know if there is a hereditary atrophy or not, because my friend is now planning to get pregnant, but she is very worried that cerebellar atrophy will be inherited, because in his family, her ancestors and his father's generation, there are patients with cerebellar atrophy, although there are no symptoms of this disease in his current place, but he is also very worried, will he have cerebellar atrophy, and he is more worried about whether the child will be inherited after he gives birth?

    Step Method:

    1. It is equivalent to saying that it is a family hereditary brain nerve disease, and his genetic probability is still relatively large, about 50%, so it is quite atrophied, and it is very likely to be passed on to children, but this is not absolute, because her probability is 50% and half of the possibility.

    2. Therefore, if you have a family history of medical conditions, you should pay more attention to the prevention of cerebellar atrophy in your daily life. First of all, you can keep a good attitude, keep your mood happy and optimistic, and don't let your spirit be overly stressed.

    3. On the other hand, we should learn more about cerebellar atrophy and clarify the ** of cerebellar atrophy. Targeted prevention. People with a rather obscene and family history should prevent cerebrovascular diseases in their daily lives.

    Prevention of cerebral arteriosclerosis, as well as infectious diseases of the brain.
