INTRODUCTION: Negative myoclonus (NM) is an involuntary movement caused by a sudden interruption of muscular activity, resulting in gait problems and falls.
OBJECTIVE: To establish frequency, clinical impact, and neurophysiology of NM in progressive myoclonus ataxia (PMA) patients.
METHODS: Clinical, neurophysiological, and genetic data of 14 PMA individuals from University Medical Centre Groningen (UMCG) Expertise Center Movement Disorder Groningen were retrospectively collected. Neurophysiological examination included video-electromyography-accelerometry assessment in all patients and electroencephalography (EEG) examination in 13 individuals. Jerk-locked (or silent period-locked) back-averaging and cortico-muscular coherence (CMC) analysis aided the classification of myoclonus.
RESULTS: NM was present in 6 (NM+) and absent in 8 (NM-) PMA patients. NM+ individuals have more frequent falls (100% vs. 37.5%) and higher scores on the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) (4.3 ±0.74 vs. 2.5 ±1.2) than NM- individuals. Genetic background of NM+ included GOSR2 and SEMA6B, while that of NM- included ATM, KCNC3, NUS1, STPBN2, and GOSR2. NM was frequently preceded by positive myoclonus (PM) and silent-period length was between 88 and 194 ms. EEG epileptiform discharges were associated with NM in 2 cases. PM was classified as cortical in 5 NM+ and 2 NM- through EEG inspection, jerk-locked back-averaging, or CMC analysis.
DISCUSSION: Neurophysiological examination is crucial for detecting NM that could be missed on clinical examination due to a preceding PM. Evidence points to a cortical origin of NM, an association with more severe motor phenotype, and suggests the presence of genetic disorders causing either a PMA or progressive myoclonus epilepsy, rather than pure PMA phenotype. © 2024 The Authors.
