 HP:0001251 Ataxia "Ataxia is a nonspecific neurological sign and symptom consisting of gross lack of coordination of muscle movements. Ataxia is caused by dysfunction of one or more parts of the nervous system including the cerebellum, the sensory nervous system, the vestibular system, or the cerebral cortex." [HPO:curators]
Show

 HP:0001260 Dysarthria "Dysarthric speech is a general description referring to a neurological speech disorder characterized by poor articulation. Depending on the involved neurological structures, dysarthria may be further classified as spastic, flaccid, ataxic, hyperkinetic and hypokinetic, or mixed." [HPO:curators]

[HPO:curators]
Show

 HP:0001423 X-linked dominant inheritance "A mode of inheritance that is observed for dominant traits related to a gene encoded on the X chromosome. In the context of medical genetics, X-linked dominant disorders tend to manifest very severely in affected males. The severity of manifestation in females may depend on the degree of skewed X inactivation." [HPO:curators]
