SUMMARY Of a family consisting of 54 members, 44 were examined. Twenty-one showed signs of a clinically non-progressive congenital lower motor neuron disorder restricted to the lower part of the body, which resulted in arthrogryposis in 15 cases. The mode of inheritance is autosomal dominant with very varied expression of the gene.
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.
