Home training for cerebellar ataxias

JAMA Neurology
About The Study: In this randomized clinical trial, home high-intensity aerobic training improved ataxia symptoms, fatigue, and aerobic fitness more than dose-matched home balance training among individuals with cerebellar ataxias, a heterogenous group of disorders characterized by progressive disability due to loss of coordination. Individuals in the aerobic group who continued to train regularly maintained benefits at 1 year.
