Human Gene Set: HP_CHOREA


Standard name HP_CHOREA
Systematic name M35623
Brief description Chorea
Full description or abstract Chorea (Greek for 'dance') refers to widespread arrhythmic involuntary movements of a forcible, jerky and restless fashion. It is a random-appearing sequence of one or more discrete involuntary movements or movement fragments. Movements appear random because of variability in timing, duration or location. Each movement may have a distinct start and end. However, movements may be strung together and thus may appear to flow randomly from one muscle group to another. Chorea can involve the trunk, neck, face, tongue, and extremities. [https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0736-9199, PMID:20589866]
