An integrated modelling methodology for estimating global incidence and prevalence of hereditary spastic paraplegia subtypes SPG4, SPG7, SPG11, and SPG15

An integrated modelling methodology for estimating global incidence and prevalence of hereditary spastic paraplegia subtypes SPG4, SPG7, SPG11, and SPG15

Abstract Background Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are progressively debilitating neurodegenerative disorders that follow heterogenous patterns of Mendelian inheritance. Available epidemiological evidence provides limited incidence and prevalence data, especially at the genetic subtype level,...
