Scientists hunt genetic clues to unlock mystery of rare neurological disorder
NCT ID NCT05354622
Summary
This study aims to understand the genetic causes of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), a group of rare inherited disorders that cause progressive muscle stiffness and weakness. Researchers will analyze DNA from 200 participants who have been diagnosed with progressive spasticity. By identifying specific genetic factors, they hope this research will eventually lead to better, more targeted treatments for different types of HSP.
