ABSTRACT: The purpose of this project is to make clinical measurements from the PREDICT-HD consortium available through the dbGaP mechanism. The phenotype data will first be converted into a community open standard and subsequently exported to dbGaP for archival and open access distribution of the results of the studies. This will permit members of the scientific community to utilize a permanent resource for investigating the interactions of phenotypes upon an international cohort of early Huntington Disease. We plan to incorporate both imaging and genotype data with a future data cut.

<h4>Objective</h4>Obsessive and compulsive symptoms (OCS) are more prevalent in patients with diagnosed Huntington's disease (HD) than in the general population. Although psychiatric symptoms have been reported in individuals with the HD gene expansion prior to clinical diagnosis (pre-HD), little is known about OCS in this phase of disease.<h4>Method</h4>The goal of this study was to assess OCS in 300 pre-HD individuals and 108 non-gene-expanded controls from the Neurobiological Predictors of Hu ...[more]
