Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy

MONDO:0015358

A group of slowly progressive inherited disorders affecting motor and sensory peripheral nerves. Subtypes include HMSNs I-VII. HMSN I and II both refer to CHARCOT-MARIE-Tooth DISEASE. HMSN III refers to hypertrophic neuropathy of infancy. HMSN IV refers to REFSUM DISEASE. HMSN V refers to a condition marked by a hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy associated with spastic paraplegia (see SPASTIC PARAPLEGIA, HEREDITARY). HMSN VI refers to HMSN associated with an inherited optic atrophy (OPTIC ATROPHIES, HEREDITARY), and HMSN VII refers to HMSN associated with retinitis pigmentosa.

New test could predict falls in muscle disease patients

Diagnosis By invitation only

This study aims to create a simple test battery to determine fall risk in people with neuromuscular disorders, such as muscular dystrophy or ALS. Researchers will assess 108 participants using several physical tests like walking, standing, and rising from a chair. The goal is to …
