FXTAS is a late-onset disorder that typically manifests after the age of 50 and worsens with age. This condition affects men more frequently and severely than women. Affected individuals have damage to the cerebellum, the part of the brain that controls movement, as well as white matter, a type of brain tissue visible with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
