简要总结
SCA 12 Iis a rare autosomal dominant inherited ataxia due to expanded cag trinucleotide repaets in PPP2R2B gene located on chromosome 5q31. It is prevalent among the agarwal community. Currently there is no definite cure for SCA 12. In the absence of definitive curative therapy, symptom amelioration is of utmost importance. Parkinsonian features including rigidity bradykinesia, and rest tremor may be highly disabling and thus addressing them efficiently is likely to positively impact quality of life. Response to levodopa in persons with SCA 12 WITH PARKINSONISM HAS NEVER BEEN SSTUDIED. iN ADDITION dat IMAGING FINDINGS IN sca 12 are not delineated in current literature. Hence we aim to assess response to levodopa therapy in persons with SCA 12 with clinical parkinsonism to assess impact of levodopa therapy on quality of life , non motor symptoms, tremors with levodopa treatment and inform DAT findings.
