Lancet Neurology: 1, 2, 3 and 6 spinal cord microcephaly disorder risk individuals to explicit co-assistance disorder (RISCA): a longitudinal cohort study

Spinal microcephaly disorder (SCAs) is a chromosomal explicit neurodegenerative disease.
clinical characteristic of SCAs is the development of co-mmune disorders.
most common SCAs such as SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, and SCA6 are caused by unstable CAG repeated amplification mutations in the alpha1a gene in the ataxin-1, ataxin-2, ataxin-3, and calcium voltage gated channel sub-unit alpha1a genes, respectively.
Our goal is to study the sensitivity of obvious health mutation carriers associated with SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, and SCA6 to co-dysfunction and to detect changes in these individuals by clinical and functional indicators.
method: In this forward-looking, longitudinal, observational cohort study, we recruited children or siblings of patients with SCA1, SCA2, SCA3, or SCA6 based on 14 referral centers in seven European countries.
Eligible individuals are those who do not have a common disorder, defined as a score of less than 3 on the SARA assessment and rating scale; for children or siblings of SCA1, SCA2 or SCA3 patients, the participants must be between 18 and 50 years of age; and for children or siblings of SCA6 patients, the participants must be between 35 and 70 years of age.
study visits occurred at the time of recruitment and after 2, 4 and 6 years (plus or minus 3 months).
we did genetic tests to identify the carriers of the mutation, and the results were kept secret from participants and clinical researchers.
we use clinical scales, patient reporting results to measure questionnaires, examiners' levels of confidence in the presence of co-existent disorders, and performance-based coordinated tests to evaluate patients.
the SARA score is 3 points or higher.
In the state of mutation and transformation, we analyzed the correlation between baseline factors and the transformation into co-relief disorders, as well as the evolution of time scale (time from inclusion time to time of age prediction at the onset of co-relief disorders).
: Between 13 September 2008 and 28 October 2015, a total of 302 participants signed up.
we analyzed data from 252 participants who had at least one follow-up.
83 (33%) participants came from SCA1-affected households, 99 (39%) were affected by SCA2, 46 (18%) were affected by SCA3 and 24 (10%) were affected by SCA6.
Among participants with SCA mutations, 26 (52%) out of 50 SCA1 carriers, 22 (59%) out of 37 SCA2 carriers, 11 (42%) out of 26 SCA3 carriers and 2 out of 15 SCA6 carriers (13%) were out of the same boat.
(3%) of the 33 SCA1 non-carriers and 1 out of 62 SCA2 non-carriers (2%) were converted to co-dysfunction.
because the number of people who meet our criteria for co-dysfunction is so small, follow-up analysis of carriers of SCA6 mutations is not relevant.
the baseline factors associated with conversion are age (risk ratio 1.13 (95% CI 1.03-1.24) ;p=0.011), CAG repeat length (1.25?1.11-1.41);p=1.41 0.0002), Commoniance Confidence (1.72 s 1.23-2.41 s ;p s 0.0015); SCA2 age (1.08 s1.02-1.14) ;p s 0.0077) and CAG repeat length (1.65 s 1.27-2.13 s ;p s 0.0001); SCA3 age (1.27 s 1.09-1.50) ;p s 0.0 031), confidence (2.60 (1.23-5.47) ;p.012), complex vision (14.83, 2.15-102.44, ;p, 0.0063).
SARA scores for SCA1, SCA2, and SCA3 mutation carriers increased from the time of integration, while remained stable among non-carriers.
SARA progression in SCA1, SCA2, and SCA3 mutation carriers is nonlinear on a time scale determined by the predicted time of the event of a common disorder, with marginal progress before the disorder and an increase in progress after the onset of the disorder.
, our data are important to understand the transition of SCA1, SCA2, and SCA3 mutant carriers from the pre-co-dysfunction stage to the apparent co-dysfunction phase.
addition, our study provides useful information for consultation with carriers of non-free disorder mutations and for the design of interventional trials designed to delay the onset of freemason disorders.
