These data clearly establish the specificity of EA2 mutations compared with SCA-6 and familial hemiplegic migraine. Detailed clinical analysis of the mutation carriers showed the highly variable penetrance and expression of this disorder: Several of the carriers did not show any clinical symptom; others displayed atypical or permanent neurologic symptoms (such as recurrent, transient diplopia or severe, permanent, and isolated cerebellar ataxia).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
