Health-related quality of life of adults with spinal muscular atrophy: insights from a nationwide patient registry in Germany.

We show that adults with SMA experience considerable impairment across a wide range of health dimensions, including mobility, dexterity, pain, and emotional well-being. However, our results exhibit non-trivial variability across clinical subgroups and HRQoL measures. These data contribute to our understanding of the subjective impact of living with a severely debilitating neuromuscular disease, such as SMA.
