Our finding expands the spectrum of SIGMAR1 mutations causing recessive dHMN and indicates that this disorder is pan-ethnic. SIGMAR1 mutation should be included in the diagnostic panel of a dHMN, especially if there are co-existing pyramidal signs and autosomal recessive inheritance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
