- W2182150453 abstract "1recounts the stigma faced by those with Huntington’s disease, a cruelly progressive and incurable neurodegenerative condition that usually (not invariably) presents in mid-life. The disease is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait so that children of a parent with Huntington’s disease are all at risk, with each having a 50% chance of developing the disease if they live a normal lifespan. The stigma of Huntington’s disease, therefore, attaches to those who are at risk as well as to those with symptoms. As well as having profound implications for the families with a member who has Huntington’s disease, the stigma has negatively aff ected research, particularly studies that have sought to investigate epidemiology and, most especially, prevalence. Various attempts have been made to estimate the prevalence of Huntington’s disease in the USA and Europe. 2 The most intensive eff orts, however, have been made in the UK, and we now have prevalence estimates in 15 localities. 2 The prevalence observed in these UK studies (expressed per 100 000 of the population) ranges from 2·5 (Essex) to 9·95 (Grampian), with an overall average of 6–7. These estimates presumably formed the basis for the assertion, in an answer to a parliamentary question, that there were 4800 cases of Huntington’s disease in the UK in 2003. 3" @default.
