Optimizing Communication in Ataxia: A Multifaceted Approach to Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC)
AbstractThe progression of multisystem neurodegenerative diseases such as ataxia significantly impacts speech and communication, necessitating adaptive clinical care strategies. With the deterioration of speech, Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) can play an ever increasing role in daily life for individuals with ataxia. This review describes the spectrum of AAC resources available, ranging from unaided gestures and sign language to high-tech solutions like speech-generating devices (SGDs) and eye-tracking technology. Despite the availability of various AAC tools, their efficacy is often compromised by the ph...

Delays in latencies of median-nerve evoked magnetic fields in patients with succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency
CONCLUSIONS: The SEF latencies are delayed in patients with SSADHD compared with healthy controls and disease controls.SIGNIFICANCE: This is the first study that compares conduction velocities in the somatosensory pathway in SSADHD, an inherited disorder of GABA metabolism. The longer peak latency implying slower conduction velocity supports the hypothesis that myelin sheath thickness is decreased in SSADHD.PMID:38447494 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinph.2024.02.010 (Source: Clinical Neurophysiology)
