Numerous advocacy groups such as the National Organization for Rare Disorders, Global Genes Project, Children's Rare Disease Network, Abetalipoproteinemia Collaboration Foundation, Zellweger Baby Support Network, and the Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance have been founded in order to advocate on behalf of patients suffering from rare diseases with a particular emphasis on diseases that afflict children.

A person suffering from Friedreich's Ataxia may require some surgical interventions ( mainly for the spine and heart ).

As in the game Oblivion, Ataxia makes your character's muscles have a lack of coordination.

* Ataxia ( gross lack of coordination of muscle movements )

Ataxia is a non-specific clinical manifestation implying dysfunction of the parts of the nervous system that coordinate movement, such as the cerebellum.

Ataxia may depend on hereditary disorders consisting of degeneration of the cerebellum and / or of the spine ; most cases feature both to some extent, and therefore present with overlapping cerebellar and sensory ataxia, even though one is often more evident than the other.

The International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale ( ICARS ) is one of the most widely used and has been proven to have very high reliability and validity.

Ataxia is also the name of a disease in the Elder Scrolls console and PC games.

* Ataxia – This is a neurological clinical sign, consisting of unsteady and clumsy motion of the limbs and torso, due to failure of gross muscle movement coordination, most evident on standing and walking.

Pes cavus is sometimes — but not always — connected through Hereditary Motor and Sensory Neuropathy Type 1 ( Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease ) and Friedreich's Ataxia ; many other cases of pes cavus are natural.

Ataxia telangiectasia ( A-T ) ( also referred to as Louis – Bar syndrome ) is a rare, neurodegenerative, inherited disease causing severe disability.

* Ataxia ( difficulty with control of movement ) that is apparent early but worsens in school to pre-teen years

Ataxia oculomotor apraxia type 1 ( AOA1 ) is an autosomal recessive disorder similar to A-T in manifesting increasing problems with coordination and oculomotor apraxia, often at a similar age to those having A-T.

Ataxia oculomotor apraxia type 2 ( AOA2 ) is an autosomal recessive disorder also similar to A-T in manifesting increasing problems with coordination and peripheral neuropathy, but oculomotor apraxia is present in only half of affected individuals.

A-T is caused by mutations in the ATM ( Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated ) gene which was cloned in 1995.

** Friedreich Ataxia – GAA ( Note: Friedreich ataxia does not usually exhibit anticipation because it is an autosomal recessive disorder.

Ataxia telangiectasia mutated ( ATM ) is a serine / threonine protein kinase that is recruited and activated by DNA double-strand breaks.

The protein is named for the disorder Ataxia telangiectasia caused by mutations of ATM.

Ataxia telangiectasia ( AT ) is a rare human disease characterized by cerebellar degeneration, extreme cellular sensitivity to radiation and a predisposition to cancer.

Ataxia and neurological signs then develop, and affected sheep struggle to keep up with the flock.

* OMA, Opsoclonus Myoclonus Ataxia, a neurological disorder better known as Opsoclonus myoclonus syndrome

* Ataxia, the loss of coordination

* Ataxia ; loss of coordination

Ataxia refers to poor coordination and telangiectasia to small dilated blood vessels, both of which are hallmarks of the disease.

* Ataxia / poor coordination / imbalance

Ataxia can be induced as a result of severe acute radiation poisoning with an absorbed dose of more than 30 Grays.

* Episodic Ataxia ( EA ), characterized by sporadic bouts of severe discoordination with or without myokymia, and can be provoked by stress, startle, or heavy exertion such as exercise.

He has also appeared on fellow DC post-punkers Decahedron's debut album Disconnection_Imminent, as well as on a one shot project with John Frusciante ( formerly ) of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and current Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist, Josh Klinghoffer known as Ataxia.

These include Werner syndrome, Ataxia telangiectasia, Ataxia-telangiectasia like disorder, Bloom syndrome, Fanconi anemia, and Nijmegen breakage syndrome.

* Marie-Foix-Alajouanine syndrome, Ataxia of the cerebellum in advanced age, frequently due to abuse of alcohol.

In 1990, Allison helped found the Bob Allison Ataxia Research Center at the University of Minnesota along with his wife Betty, sons Mark, Kirk, and Kyle, and former Twins ' teammates Jim Kaat and Frank Quilici.

* Marie-Foix-Alajouanine syndrome: Ataxia of the cerebellum in advanced age.

The causes of dysarthria can be many, including toxic, metabolic, degenerative diseases ( such as Parkinsonism, ALS, Huntington's Disease, Niemann Pick disease, Ataxia etc.

While studying at the seminary in Andover, Adoniram had been working on a New Testament translation from the original Greek.

Those famous lines of the Greek Anthology with which a fading beauty dedicates her mirror at the shrine of a goddess reveal a wise attitude: `` Venus, take my votive glass, Since I am not what I was, What from this day I shall be, Venus, let me never see ''.

And then the Amen corner took hold, re-enacting a form of group participation in worship that stemmed from years before the Greek chorus, spreading down through the African forest, overseas to the West Indies, and then here in Alabama.

They answered him in monosyllables, nods, occasionally muttering in Greek to one another, awaiting the word from Papa, who restlessly cracked his knuckles, anxious to stuff himself into his white Cadillac and burst off to the freeway.

It was not even in writing Latin epigrams, sometimes bawdy ones, or in translating Lucian from Greek into Latin or in defending the study of Greek against the attack of conservative academics, or in attacking the conservative theologians who opposed Erasmus's philological study of the New Testament.

Scientists assume that cholesterol ( from the Greek chole, meaning bile, and sterios, meaning solid ) is somehow necessary for the formation of brain cells, since it accounts for about 2% of the brain's total solid weight.

It is similar to the Ancient Greek letter Alpha, from which it derives.

With the loss of the study of ancient Greek in the early medieval Latin West, Aristotle was practically unknown there from c. AD 600 to c. 1100 except through the Latin translation of the Organon made by Boethius.

In the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, interest in Aristotle revived and Latin Christians had translations made, both from Arabic translations, such as those by Gerard of Cremona, and from the original Greek, such as those by James of Venice and William of Moerbeke.

After Thomas Aquinas wrote his theology, working from Moerbeke's translations, the demand for Aristotle's writings grew and the Greek manuscripts returned to the West, stimulating a revival of Aristotelianism in Europe that continued into the Renaissance.

The term " anthropology " is from the Greek anthrōpos (), " man ", understood to mean humankind or humanity, and-logia (- λογία ), " discourse " or " study.

Marie-Louise von Franz tells us the double approach of Western alchemy was set from the start, when Greek philosophy was mixed with Egyptian and Mesopotamian technology.

The evolution of the Greek sculpture can be observed in his depictions from the almost static formal Kouros type in early archaic period, to the representation of motion in a relative harmonious whole in late archaic period.

The evolution of the Greek art seems to go parallel with the Greek philosophical conceptions, which changed from the natural-philosophy of Thales to the metaphysical theory of Pythagoras.

The Greek words " ida " ( οίδα: know ) and " idos " ( είδος: species ) have the same root as the word " idea " ( ιδέα ), indicating how the Greek mind moved from the gift of the senses, to the principles beyond the senses.

According to the Greek tradition the Dipylon master was named Daedalus, and in his statues the limbs were freed from the body, giving the impression that the statues could move.

Such statues were found across the Greek speaking world, the preponderance of these were found at the sanctuaries of Apollo with more than one hundred from the sanctuary of Apollo Ptoios, Boeotia alone.
