Summary: The purpose of this study is to investigate if a person with weakness or paralysis in one or both arms, can use the NuroSleeve combined powered arm brace (orthosis) and muscle stimulation system to help restore movement in one arm sufficient to perform daily activities. This study could lead to the development of a product that could allow people with arm weakness or arm paralysis to use the NuroS...
Summary: The primary aim of this study is to discover whether patients with CMT type 1 and 2 have neuromuscular junction transmission deficits.The secondary aim is to collect information of different clinical and electrophysiological test procedures to perform possible future clinical trials in CMT patients.
Summary: Functional motor recovery distal to a peripheral nerve lesion is predicated upon time to reinnervation of the motor end plate and the number of regenerate axons that reach the target. Supercharged end-to-side (SETS) transfer of the anterior interosseous nerve to the motor fascicle of the ulnar nerve at the level of the distal forearm has been proposed as an adjunct procedure in severe cubital tunn...
Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether PXT3003 is effective and safe in the treatment of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease - Type 1A. This double-blind study will assess in parallel groups 1 dose of PXT3003 compared to Placebo in CMT1A patients treated for 15 months.
Summary: Low back pain (LBP) is a common complaint in the clinical setting. Among all the differential diagnosis for LBP, superior cluneal nerve (SCN) entrapment is the commonly omitted one. The superior cluneal nerve is the terminal branch of the lateral branches of the posterior rami of the L1-L3 spinal nerves, which passes through the osseous tunnel interposed between the thoracolumbar fascia and iliac ...
Summary: The project will develop knowledge about physical activity in persons with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) in Norway. We plan to explore instruments to measure physical activity level for the target-group at the community level. We want to understand which type of activities, activity intensities and how persons with CMT perform habitual physical activity. Subsequently, a physical activity measurement i...
Summary: This study will assess the serum NT-3 levels in individuals with the diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy or any type of Charcot-Marie-Tooth Neuropathy (CMT) and correlate this with function.
Summary: Charcot-Marie-Tooth 4J (CMT4J) is a rare inherited peripheral neuropathy often characterized by rapidly progressive, asymmetrical upper and lower extremity weakness, muscle atrophy leading to loss of ambulation, respiratory compromise and premature death with no available treatment.The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical characteristics and natural clinical progression of symptoms...
Summary: The aim of the study is to analyze the natural history data data from Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and related disorders in China, to assess the clinical, genetic, epigenetic features of patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, and to optimize clinical management.
Summary: The purpose of the study is to investigate utility and appropriateness of treatment interventions taking into account the presumed mechanisms of two main varieties of ulnar neuropathy at the elbow (UNE). The investigators hypothesize that in patients with UNE under the humeroulnar aponeurosis (HUA) surgical HUA release (simple decompression) is superior to conservative treatment. By contrast, in p...
Summary: This is a cross-sectional study to clarify the gene lineage distribution of CMT genes in CMT patients in my country, draw a frequency map of CMT gene distribution, and assist in determining the genetic diagnosis strategy of CMT diseases. All patients will be collected for clinical and electrophysiological data. Patients and families who meet the enrollment criteria will be tested for blood tests.
Summary: An observational, non-interventional registry study to collect real-world data from people living with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) and its treatment, which will be available to researchers to further the knowledge of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and improve patient care.
