Characterizing Perceived Physical Fatigability in Nusinersen-treated SMA
The purpose of this project is to investigate the utility of the SMA EFFORT, an SMA-specific patient-reported outcome measure, to assess perceived physical fatigability that is anchored to intensity and duration of activities. We aim to characterize perceived physical fatigability (PPF) in a diverse cohort of people with SMA (pwSMA) …
A Review of the Management and Outcomes of Children With SMA in the West Midlands During 2017-2022
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a rare neuromuscular condition, characterised by loss of motor neurons as a result of a mutation in the survival motor neuron gene. This results in muscle wasting and in the most common and severe type, death before 24 months. Over the recent years there has …
Comprehensive Analysis Platform To Understand, Remedy and Eliminate ALS
CAPTURE ALS is a long-term data and biorepository platform that will facilitate future ALS research. CAPTURE ALS will provide the standardized systems and tools necessary to collect, store, and analyze vast amounts of multimodal information about ALS. These multimodal datasets and biosamples will be made available for use by researchers …
Exploring Bulbar Function, Speech And Communication Development in SMA Type 1
5q-spinal muscular atrophy (5q-SMA) is a rare, autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease characterized by degeneration of motor neurons in the spinal cord and lower brainstem with progressive muscle atrophy, weakness, and paralysis. The incidence is 1 in 7-10,000 live births. 5q-SMA presents a wide range of phenotypes that are classified into …
Phenotype, Genotype and Biomarkers 2
The purpose of this study is to learn more about amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other related neurodegenerative diseases, including frontotemporal dementia (FTD), primary lateral sclerosis (PLS), hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), progressive muscular atrophy (PMA) and multisystem proteinopathy (MSP). More precisely, the investigator wants to identify the links that exist …
Specified Drug-Use Survey of Leuprorelin Acetate Injection Kit 11.25 mg "All-Case Investigation: Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy (SBMA)"
The purpose of this survey is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of leuprorelin acetate injection kit 11.25 mg in patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) in the routine clinical setting.
Impairments of Neuro-muscular Communication in Motor-Neuron Disease: A Bio-Marker for Early and Personalised Diagnosis
Motor neuron disease (MND) or ALS is a nervous system disease. ALS leads to a loss of movement ability that eventually leads to death. At the moment, there is no known treatment for ALS. Early diagnosis in individuals improves clinical care and facilitates timely entry into clinical trials. However, current …
Clinical, Molecular and Imaging Biomarkers in Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy (SBMA)
Background SBMA is an inherited chronic disease. It affects males in mid to late adulthood. It causes slowly progressive weakness of muscles and hand tremors. Researchers want to learn more about the effects of SBMA. Objective To identify measurements that change over time in SBMA, including tests of muscle strength …
Correlation Study Between SMA Blood Flow Reactivity and Acute Gastrointestinal Injury in Critically Ill Patients
This study aims to address the challenges of enteral nutrition support in critically ill ICU patients with varying gastrointestinal function. We'll use bedside Doppler ultrasound to monitor superior mesenteric artery (SMA) blood flow changes post - feeding, exploring its correlation with Acute Gastrointestinal Injury (AGI) and other hemodynamic indicators. Our …
Observational Study to Observe Variations of Gait Parameters in Patients with Neuromuscular Diseases
This study has the general objective of observing walking parameters during a clinical test to objectively estimate fatigue in patients with neuromuscular diseases. Furthermore, the investigators want to evaluate the feasibility of collecting physical activity in daily life conditions during a one-week monitoring period using a wearable sensor.
