Podcasts about chorea

Profs. Elena Moro and Ruth Walker discuss the management of chorea, including when this is appropriate. They focus on Huntington's disease and the role of deep brain stimulation and other surgical interventions, in addition to medical management.

In this episode Iva Stankovic hosts Alessio Di Fonzo to discuss how to diagnose chorea and how to approach differential diagnosis to entangle the etiology of chorea.

Max Weissensteiner trägt eine tödlich endende Erbkrankheit in sich: Chorea Huntington. Wie seine Großmutter und seine Mutter. Die Krankheit zerstört nach und nach die Zellen im Gehirn. „Mich kann nichts mehr so leicht umhauen“, sagt Max Weissensteiner. Der 33-Jährige sitzt in seiner 45 Quadratmeter-Wohnung im 17. Wiener Gemeindebezirk. Dort, wo einst die Vorstadt angekommen ist, die Gassen ruhiger werden und die Altbauten nicht ganz so hoch in den Himmel ragen. „Chorea kommt vom griechischen Wort für Tanz“, sagt Max. „Denn ein Teil der Symptome sind starke Bewegungsstörungen, die an tanzähnliche Bewegungen erinnern. Veitstanz ist ein alter Name. Das waren auch Symptome, die man bei meiner Oma gesehen hat.“ Mit der Oma und der Uroma und seiner Mama wächst Max in Ybbsitz, in Niederösterreich, auf. Es ist Anfang der 1990er-Jahre, als sich bei seiner Oma erste Symptome zeigen: Stimmungsschwankungen. Nach und nach kommen Bewegungseinschränkungen dazu. Stricken, Kochen, Essen, das alles geht nicht mehr so wie vorher: „Meine Oma war die erste in der Familie, wo sichtbar wurde, dass da etwas ist“, sagt Max. Anfang 50 ist die Oma damals, Max selbst gerade mal ein Jahr alt. Als Symptome und Ratlosigkeit in der Familie immer stärker werden, bringt ein Neurologe in Amstetten die Gewissheit: „Da ist zum ersten Mal dieser Name im Raum gestanden. Chorea Huntington. Neurodegenerativ. Vererbbar. Und unheilbar", sagt Weissensteiner. „Es ist, als ob man damit in einen neuen Lebensabschnitt tritt. Plötzlich war die Krankheit Teil unserer Familiengeschichte.“ Wie mit diesem Wissen leben? Max' Antwort: Sich immer wieder fragen, was mir wirklich wichtig ist. Jetzt.

„Meine Mutter war nicht mehr meine Mutter“, sagt Marco Schreyl. Der TV- und Rundfunkmoderator und Journalist hat in der eigenen Familie erlebt, wie die Huntington-Erkrankung die Persönlichkeit eines Menschen verändern kann: Seine Mutter war an der seltenen, neurodegenerativen Krankheit erkrankt und ist im Alter von nur 65 Jahren daran verstorben. Betroffen sind bei Huntington neben der Bewegung auch die Psyche der Betroffenen sowie die kognitiven Fähigkeiten. Die bislang unheilbare Nervenkrankheit ist genetisch, also erblich bedingt. Direkte Nachkommen von Huntington-Erkrankten haben ein 50-prozentiges Risiko, ebenfalls zu erkranken. Im Gespräch mit Moderatorin Sabine Heinrich erzählt Marco Schreyl, wie er bereits vor der Diagnose merkte, dass etwas nicht mit seiner einst so warmherzigen, empathischen Mutter stimmte und dass sie ihre Empathie verloren hatte – für sich selbst und für ihre Umgebung. Über ihre Huntington-Erkrankung und seinen Umgang damit hat er nach dem Tod seiner Mutter ein Buch geschrieben. Im Podcast berichtet Marco Schreyl, wie ihm das Buch geholfen hat, das Erlebte zu verarbeiten. Er spricht mit Sabine Heinrich auch darüber, warum er sich bislang dagegen entschieden hat, durch einen Gentest erfahren zu können, ob er selbst Genträger ist und früher oder später erkranken wird. Zuhörende erfahren außerdem, wie Angehörige von Betroffenen auf die eigenen Bedürfnisse achten können.

Chorea Huntington, auch „Huntington-Krankheit“ oder „Morbus Huntington“ genannt, ist eine seltene, aber tödlich verlaufende Erkrankung des Gehirns. Die Huntington-Krankheit hat genetische, also erbliche Ursachen und ist bislang unheilbar. Sie kann sowohl im Kindesalter bis zum hohen Alter ausbrechen. Zu den Symptomen zählen unwillkürliche zuckende Bewegungen und ein charakteristischer tänzelnder Gang: Deshalb wurde die Krankheit früher „Veitstanz“ genannt. Auch der Begriff „Chorea“ stammt vom griechischen Wort „choreia“ für „Tanz“. Die Huntington-Krankheit ist aber weit mehr als eine Bewegungsstörung: Im Gehirn von Menschen mit Morbus Huntington gehen nach und nach Bereiche zugrunde, die nicht nur für die Steuerung der Muskeln, sondern auch für psychische und kognitive Funktionen wichtig sind. Was passiert mit Körper und Psyche der Erkrankten? Was weiß man über die erblichen Ursachen? Wie ist der aktuelle Stand der Forschung? Diese und andere Fragen rund um Morbus Huntington bespricht die Journalistin Sabine Heinrich mit dem Neurologen Prof. Dr. Albert Ludolph. Er ist Standortsprecher am DZNE Ulm und Ärztlicher Direktor der Neurologischen Klinik am RKU – Universitäts- und Rehabilitationskliniken Ulm. Im Podcast spricht der Spezialist für seltene neurodegenerative Erkrankungen über frühe Huntington-Anzeichen wie Verhaltensstörungen, Depressionen oder Wahnvorstellungen (Psychosen) und erklärt, ob man den Verlauf der Erbkrankheit hinauszögern kann.

In medieval Strasbourg, during a period of unimaginable suffering and poverty, a mania took hold. Infected people were gripped by the compulsion to dance in the streets until they dropped senseless from exhaustion - or died. When the strange illness began to spread, the city took a series of steps to help the afflicted, culminating in a thirty-mile trek to seek the intervention of an obscure saint who may or may not have been angry at the city's sinful lifestyle. On this episode, we look at the time period leading up to the dancing plague, possible causes, how it spread, what the cure looked like (it came with a free pair of red shoes!) and what made this event so much worse than similar ones across the late Middle Ages. Sources for this episode include: “The Dancing Mania: The Strange, True Story of an Extraordinary Illness”, J. Waller, 2009 “The Black Death and the Dancing Mania”, J F K Hecker, (Babington translation), 1856 “The Differential Diagnosis of Chorea”, E J Wild et al, published in ‘Practical Neurology', 2007 “The Dancing Plague of the Middle Ages”, M.

This special edition of the Mixtape Tales podcast is a discussion of Huntington's Disease with my cousin, Amanda. She talks about the testing process, why advocacy is crucial, and shares her -- OUR -- family story. I am titling these episodes "Talking Chorea Blues" in honor of an unrecorded Woody Guthrie song related to his illness. In case you were wondering where the title came from :) If you want to tell your family's HD story, shoot me an email pbriggs1977@gmail.com and we will set up a time to talk. I can not thank Amanda enough for taking the time to do this, and I hope you find her episode informative and helpful.

Chorea is a sixth level enchantment cast upon the self with a material requirement of ergot fungi and a duration that will last until the fungi is burned with lavender flowers.  Chorea is a rare, contagious spell that will spread it’s effects to anyone who makes physical contact. Chorea causes one to have an irresistible desire to dance.  The movement can be as subtle as tapping a foot or wildly acrobatic.  The target feels euphoric, and after the spell ends, they feel refreshed.  Chorea was discovered in July 1518 in France.  However, the method for ending the spell was not discovered until the 1800s.  On that Summer day centuries ago, Frau Troffea, of Strasbourg, unwittingly cast the spell upon herself and began to dance.  This lasted somewhere between four and six days. Within a week, 34 others had joined, and within a month, there were around 400 dancers, predominantly female. All these people died from heart attacks, strokes, or exhaustion.  The plague ended after the final dancer had died before touching another person. Today, the spell is used as a recreational drug. The use of chorea is legal in 39 states so long as a thurible is used.  A thurible is a tall candle holder with a timer that drops the fungi and lavender into the flame.  There are currently eleven states where chorea is banned.  Check local laws before casting.

Wykład profesor Anny Wyki o kulturze alternatywnej w Polsce, Collegium Civitas [8 listopada 2009 r.] Wykład przeprowadzony 8 listopada 2009 r. w Collegium Civitas w ramach cyklu „Współczesne społeczeństwa: Polska – Europa – Świat. Kultura, mentalność, system wartości.” Kultura alternatywna zaczęła pojawiać się w Polsce w latach 70. U jej podłoża leżą m.in. kontrast między światem zewnętrznym i rzeczywistym, dotkliwy w okresie PRLu, chęć rozwoju wewnętrznego, docenianie wartości kontaktów międzyludzkich, poczucie jedności z naturą, indywidualna sprawczość, a także kwestionowanie wartości posiadania dóbr, na rzecz głębszego rozwoju. Rozwój kultury alternatywnej podzielić można na trzy etapy. Pierwsza faza to moment negacji, przy jednoczesnym braku świadomości współodczuwania tej negacji przez innych ludzi, w drugiej fazie pojawia się poczucie wspólnoty, trzeci etap jest fazą w której wspólne wartości są znane i prowadzą do proponowania alternatywy i konstruktywnych działań. Indywidualne podejście i stawianie na rozwój jednostki, sprawiły że wytworzył się alternatywny styl życia, w którym dążono do spójności między wyznawanymi wartościami, a ich realizacją. Było to przeciwstawienie się rzeczywistości powojennego świata. Głód wartości duchowych, chęć reedukacji, dezalienacji i samorealizacji, uwzględniającej dobro drugiego człowieka, prowadziły do powstania grup i komun wspierających swoje działania. Ważną postacią skupiającą poszukujących alternatywy był Jerzy Grotowski. Kontynuatorami praktyki kultury czynnej i twórczego stosunku do życia i działalności, jest wiele działających nadal środowisk m.in. Ośrodek „Pogranicze – sztuk, kultur, narodów”, Fundacja „Muzyka Kresów”, Stowarzyszenie „Tratwa”, a także teatry: Studium Teatralne, Chorea, Teatr Wiejski Węgajty, Gardzienice. Wykład nakreśla powstanie kultury alternatywnej i jej losy na przestrzeni dekad, aż do dnia dzisiejszego. Pokazuje najważniejsze idee, praktyki, cechy i motywy powstawania ruchów alternatywnych. Przybliża postaci ważne dla alternatywnej kultury m. in. działalność i poglądy Jerzego Grotowskiego.

Dr. Mered Parnes discusses with Dr. Sara Schaefer his article on benign hereditary chorea recently published in the January 2019 issue of the Movement Disorders Clinical Practice.

Orden dans och pest framkallar två motstridiga känslor. Ändå är det så historieböckerna väljer att beskriva det som tidvis inträffade i medeltidens Europa. Upphovsmannen till denna pest, i Strasbourg anno 1518, var varken en man eller en svartråtta. Dansen var inte behaglig för de som utövade den eller vacker att se på. När läkarna har uteslutit allt som är omöjligt så måste det som återstår, oavsett hur osannolikt det är, vara sanningen.

After clinical trial results were announced for deutetrabenazine (Austedo), I hoped we might be getting a drug that didn't cause the side effects of other chorea treatments (antipsychotics or the old tetrabenazine). And now that I have prescribed it, it has proved better than I had expected based on the clinical trial results.  Though not successful in everyone, it has clearly decreased chorea in most. But what I was not expecting is how much this drug improves the functional activities that chorea impacted.

This week we don't necessarily dive into one particular disease or disorder, but a neurological symptom that is seen in various diseases. We know a bit about how Chorea works, but what exactly is it? how do we see it in various diseases? what can we do to alleviate its effects? Join us this week, with a new special guest introducer!
