Increased muscle tone observed in the arms of the affected person.

A series of rhythmic and involuntary muscle contractions (at a frequency of about 5 to 7 Hz) that occur in response to an abruptly applied and sustained stretch.

An abnormally increased muscular tone that causes fixed abnormal postures. There is a slow, intermittent twisting motion that leads to exaggerated turning and posture of the extremities and trunk.

Spasticity and weakness of the leg and hip muscles.

The term gait disturbance can refer to any disruption of the ability to walk.

A decrease in the ability to perceive vibration. Clinically, this is usually tested with a tuning fork which vibrates at 128 Hz and is applied to bony prominences such as the malleoli at the ankles or the metacarpal-phalangeal joints. There is a slow decay of vibration from the tuning fork. The degree of vibratory sense loss can be crudely estimated by counting the number of seconds that the examiner can perceive the vibration longer than the patient.

Exaggerated anterior convexity of the thoracic vertebral column.

A deformity of the chest caused by overgrowth of the ribs and characterized by protrusion of the sternum.

The capability that a joint (or a group of joints) has to move, passively and/or actively, beyond normal limits along physiological axes.
