Abstract

A 50-year old man presented for evaluation of progressive gait ataxia with a superimposed spastic paraparesis. During his clinic visit, he was also observed to have slow and limited eye movements. In this article, we discuss the clinical approach to this triad of symptoms and guide the reader to discover the patient's ultimate genetic diagnosis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 20. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 March 2020.
All research outputs
#1,867,838
of 25,545,162 outputs
Outputs from JAMA Neurology
#1,853
of 5,878 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#35,229
of 330,909 outputs
Outputs of similar age from JAMA Neurology
#46
of 70 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,545,162 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,878 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 44.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 330,909 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 70 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
