“…In addition to SMN1 gene deletions, homozygous NAIP gene deletions were detected in 6 of the 7 infants with peripheral neuropathy, whereas there was no evidence of a large deletion, including the multicopy markers C212 and Ag1‐CA, in family linkage studies of 2 patients . Severe sensorimotor polyneuropathies in SMA patients have been demonstrated in several other studies …”

“…SMN1 gene defects are thought to cause pure motor neuron loss. However, some reports have suggested the co‐existence of sensorimotor neuropathies in some patients, although electroneuromyography (ENMG) data are limited . We have observed severe sensory and motor nerve conduction abnormalities in our SMA Type 1 patients.…”

“…Independentemente do tipo de doença, o internamento em UTI gera redução da flexibilidade e declínio funcional 10,14. A dificuldade em mobilizar o paciente com Sín-drome de Werdnig-Hoffman está relacionada às limitações geradas por equipamentos necessários a sua sobrevivência, como o ventilador mecânico e instabilidades decorrentes do agravamento da doença. Essas restrições, quando associado às características neurodegenerativas da doença, contribuem para períodos de imobilidade mais longos, favorecendo as perdas de amplitude de movimento 15 .…”
