Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Newborn Screening for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) - a Proof of Principle Study Using Anonymised Blood Spots.
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a motor neuron disorder caused by the absence of a functional survival of motor neuron 1, telomeric (SMN1) gene. Type I SMA, a lethal disease of infancy, accounts for the majority of cases.
