Ataxia in Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. SARA, the Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia is an 8-item performance-based scale, yielding a total score of 0 = no ataxia to 40 = most severe ataxia [63]. Bars represent mean sum scores of fifteen patients in the Wernicke phase and ten other patients in the chronic Korsakoff phase. The time axis shows the follow-up of SARA scores in both patient groups and starts, respectively on the date of admission in the Wernicke group and on the date of the first measurements in Korsakoff patients, who have been admitted for 18 months or more, in Slingedael Korsakoff center, Rotterdam.
