Ataxia - Athlete's condition

Japanese: 運動失調症 - うんどうしっちょうしょう
Ataxia - Athlete's condition
The term was used to describe a condition in which voluntary movement is not performed well despite the absence of motor paralysis, but it was Guillaume BADuchenne de Boulogne (1806-75) who clearly established the concept. In 1858, he described the movement disorder caused by tabes dorsalis and clarified that it is not caused by motor paralysis but by the inability to properly coordinate the action of several muscles to perform a movement.

Japanese:
運動麻痺がないにもかかわらず,随意運動がうまく行われない状態に対して用いられたことばであるが,その概念をはっきりと定着させたのはデュシェンヌ・ド・ブーローニュGuillaume B.A.Duchenne de Boulogne(1806‐75)である。彼は1858年に脊髄癆(せきずいろう)の運動障害について述べ,それが運動麻痺によるものではなく,運動を遂行するにあたって,作動すべきいくつかの筋肉の協調がうまくいかないために生ずることを明らかにした。
