Abstract
Sleep disturbances are common in various neurological pathologies, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), multiple system atrophy (MSA), hereditary ataxias, Huntington's disease (HD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). This article reviews the prevalence and characteristics of sleep disorders in these conditions, highlighting their impact on patients' quality of life and disease progression. Sleep-related breathing disorders, insomnia, restless legs syndrome (RLS), periodic limb movement syndrome (PLMS), and rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) are among the common sleep disturbances reported. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions play crucial roles in managing sleep disturbances and enhancing overall patient care.

Genotype-Phenotype Correlations for ATX-TBP (SCA17): MDSGene Systematic Review. Mov Disord 2023; 38:368-377. [PMID: 36374860 DOI: 10.1002/mds.29278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Revised: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 10/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 17 or ATX-TBP is a CAG/CAA repeat expansion disorder characterized by marked clinical heterogeneity. Reports of affected carriers with subthreshold repeat expansions and of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) with expanded repeats have cast doubt on the established cutoff values of the expansions and the phenotypic spectrum of this disorder. The objective of this systematic review was to explore the genotype-phenotype relationships for repeat expansions in TBP to delineate the ATX-TBP phenotype and reevaluate the pathological range of repeat expansions. The International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society Genetic Mutation Database (MDSGene) standardized data extraction protocol was followed. Clinically affected carriers of reported ATX-TBP expansions were included. Publications that contained repeat sizes in screened cohorts of patients with PD and/or healthy individuals were included for a separate evaluation of cutoff values. Phenotypic and genotypic data for 346 ATX-TBP patients were curated. Overall, 97.7% of the patients had ≥41 repeats, while 99.6% of patients with PD and 99.9% of healthy individuals had ≤42 repeats, with a gray zone of reduced penetrance between 41 and 45 repeats. Pure parkinsonism was more common in ATX-TBP patients with 41 to 45 repeats than in the group with ≥46 repeats, which conversely more often presented with a complex phenotype with mixed movement disorders. An updated genotype-phenotype assessment for ATX-TBP is provided, and new repeat expansion cutoff values of reduced penetrance (41-45 expanded repeats) and full penetrance (46-66 expanded repeats) are proposed. These adjusted cutoff values will have diagnostic and counseling implications and may guide future clinical trial protocol. © 2022 The Authors.

Stridor during sleep: description of 81 consecutive cases diagnosed in a tertiary sleep disorders center. Sleep 2020; 44:5909297.

Abstract
Abstract
Study Objectives
To describe the characteristics of stridor during sleep (SDS) in a series of adults identified by video-polysomnography (V-PSG).
Methods
Retrospective clinical, V-PSG, laryngoscopic, and therapeutic data of patients diagnosed with SDS in a tertiary referral sleep disorders center between 1997 and 2017.
Results
A total of 81 patients were identified (56.8% males, age 61.8 ± 11.2 years). Related etiologies were multiple system atrophy (MSA), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, spinocerebellar ataxia type 1, anti-IgLON5 disease, fatal familial insomnia, brainstem structural lesions, vagus nerve stimulation, recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, the effect of radiotherapy on the vocal cords, cervical osteophytes, and others. Stridor during wakefulness coexisted in 13 (16%) patients and in MSA was only seen in the parkinsonian form. Laryngoscopy during wakefulness in 72 (88.9%) subjects documented vocal cord abductor impairment in 65 (90.3%) and extrinsic lesions narrowing the glottis in 2 (2.4%). The mean apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) was 21.4 ± 18.6 and CT90 was 11.5 ± 19.1. Obstructive AHI > 10 occurred in 52 (64.2%) patients and central apnea index >10 in 2 (2.4%). CPAP abolished SDS, obstructive apneic events and oxyhemoglobin desaturations in 58 of 60 (96.7%) titrated patients with optimal pressure of 9.0 ± 2.3 cm H20. Tracheostomy in 19 (23.4%) and cordotomy in 3 (3.7%) subjects also eliminated SDS.
Conclusions
SDS in adults is linked to conditions that damage the brainstem, recurrent laryngeal nerve, and vocal cords. V-PSG frequently detects obstructive sleep apnea and laryngoscopy usually shows vocal cord abductor dysfunction. CPAP, tracheostomy, and laryngeal surgery abolish SDS.

Abstract
In clinical practice, involuntary vocalizing behaviors are typically associated with Tourette syndrome and other tic disorders. However, they may also be encountered throughout the entire tenor of neuropsychiatry, movement disorders, and neurodevelopmental syndromes. Importantly, involuntary vocalizing behaviors may often constitute a predominant clinical sign, and, therefore, their early recognition and appropriate classification are necessary to guide diagnosis and treatment. Clinical literature and video-documented cases on the topic are surprisingly scarce. Here, we pooled data from 5 expert centers of movement disorders, with instructive video material to cover the entire range of involuntary vocalizations in humans. Medical literature was also reviewed to document the range of possible etiologies associated with the different types of vocalizing behaviors and to explore treatment options. We propose a phenomenological classification of involuntary vocalizations within different categorical domains, including (1) tics and tic-like vocalizations, (2) vocalizations as part of stereotypies, (3) vocalizations as part of dystonia or chorea, (4) continuous vocalizing behaviors such as groaning or grunting, (5) pathological laughter and crying, (6) vocalizations resembling physiological reflexes, and (7) other vocalizations, for example, those associated with exaggerated startle responses, as part of epilepsy and sleep-related phenomena. We provide comprehensive lists of their associated etiologies, including neurodevelopmental, neurodegenerative, neuroimmunological, and structural causes and clinical clues. We then expand on the pathophysiology of the different vocalizing behaviors and comment on available treatment options. Finally, we present an algorithmic approach that covers the wide range of involuntary vocalizations in humans, with the ultimate goal of improving diagnostic accuracy and guiding appropriate treatment. © 2019 The Authors.

Abstract
Nonmotor symptoms (NMS) have been increasingly recognized in a number of neurodegenerative diseases with a burden of disability that parallels or even surpasses that induced by motor symptoms. As NMS have often been poorly recognized and inadequately treated, much of the most recent developments in the investigation of these disorders has focused on the recognition and quantification of NMS, which will form the basis of improved clinical care for these complex cases. NMS have been only sparsely investigated in a limited number of spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs), particularly SCA3, and have not been systematically reviewed for other forms of SCAs. The aim of the present study was to review the available literature on the presence of NMS among different types of SCAs.
