Molecular genetics of familial parkinsonism

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative disorder associated with tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, and postural instability. There exists a familial form of PD that is indistinguishable from the sporadic form. In addition, there exists a class of syndromes classified as parkinsonism-plus syndromes (PPS), in which parkinsonism is an essential but not the only phenotypic characteristic. The etiology of PD remains unclear. Both environmental and genetic factors contribute to the disease pathogenesis. Recent progress in the molecular genetics of parkinsonism has demonstrated that six different chromosomal regions are associated with forms of familial parkinsonism. Mutations in four candidate genes have been identified and include both point mutations and deletions. Both gain-of-function and loss-of-function mutational mechanisms have been implicated. The molecular genetic characterization has led to a new classification of PD and PPS based on the type of genetic defect. Understanding the mechanisms by which these mutations lead to disease should provide further insights into the etiology of parkinsonism.     

Classification of childhood epilepsy syndromes in newly diagnosed epilepsy: interrater agreement and reasons for disagreement

PURPOSE: The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) classification of the epilepsies is in increasingly widespread use. The following analysis was done to assess the interrater agreement in classifying epilepsy syndromes in children with newly diagnosed epilepsy. METHODS: In a prospective, community-based study, 613 children with newly diagnosed epilepsy were recruited. Based on information available at diagnosis or generated as part of the initial diagnostic assessment, three pediatric neurologists independently classified epilepsy syndromes. Interrater agreement was assessed with kappa. RESULTS: Interrater agreement was extremely good, with kappa scores > or = 0.80 for almost all comparisons. Relatively limited quality of the EEG and seizure information in some cases, as well as discrepancies between the two, were associated with a tendency for more disagreement. CONCLUSIONS: A high degree of interrater agreement was obtained in this study, indicating that the system for classifying syndromes can be meaningfully used in a community-based sample. Quality of the information, which is often, by necessity, less than optimal in newly diagnosed epilepsy, is a potential barrier to identification of syndromes. A substantial proportion of children were classified into relatively nonspecific syndromes. Over time, additional information may come to light to allow more precise identification of their forms of epilepsy. In an epidemiologic setting, the ILAE classification of the epilepsies can be successfully used with a high degree of reliability to classify newly diagnosed epilepsy in children.     

鼻塞对阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征发病影响的研究

目的:探讨鼻塞对阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征(OSAS)发病的影响。方法:对18例诊断为鼻塞和腭咽平面阻塞的OSAS患者,单纯行鼻腔手术改善通气,6个月后复诊。结果:12例睡眠阻塞症状缓解,其中4例效果明显;6例无效。睡眠呼吸紊乱指数(AHI)由术前的29.9±2.1降至22.8±2.7;夜间最低血氧饱和度由(75.0±2.9)％升至(83.4±2.3)％;而体重指数无明显差异。无效组与有效组的术前AHI值差异有显著性意义。结论:鼻塞是OSAS的重要致病因素,早期治疗解除鼻塞是预防OSAS发病的重要措施之一;长期鼻塞引发的OS-AS患者,早期通过鼻腔手术解除鼻塞是治疗OSAS的有效方法之一。
