abstract = {Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay
(ARSACS) is a rare early onset neurodegenerative disease
that typically results in ataxia, upper motor neuron
dysfunction and sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy.
Dysarthria and dysphagia are anecdotally described as key
features of ARSACS but the nature, severity and impact of
these deficits in ARSACS are not known. A comprehensive
quantitative and qualitative characterization of speech and
swallowing function will support diagnostics, provide
insights into the underlying pathology, and guide day-to-day
clinical management.11 consecutive non-Quebec ARSACS
patients were recruited, and compared to healthy
participants from several published and unpublished cohorts.
A comprehensive behavioural assessment including objective
acoustic analysis and expert perceptual ratings of motor
speech, the Clinical Assessment of Dysphagia in
Neurodegeneration (CADN), videofluoroscopy and standardized
tests of dysarthria and swallowing related quality of life
was conducted.Speech in this ARSACS cohort is characterized
by pitch breaks, prosodic deficits including reduced rate
and prolonged intervals, and articulatory deficits. The
swallowing profile was characterized by delayed initiation
of the swallowing reflex and late epiglottic closure. Four
out of ten patients were observed aspirating thin liquids on
videofluoroscopy. Patients report that they regularly cough
or choke on thin liquids and solids during mealtimes.
Swallowing and speech-related quality of life was worse than
healthy controls on all domains except sleep.The dysphagia
and dysarthria profile of this ARSACS cohort reflects
impaired coordination and timing. Dysphagia contributes to a
significant impairment in functional quality of life in
ARSACS, and appears to manifest distinctly from other ARSACS
dysfunctions such as ataxia or spasticity.},
