TI  - Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies in Swedish children. I. Prevalence and 
      distribution by disability groups.
PG  - 379-83
AB  - The prevalence of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies (HMSN) and their 
      distribution according to the severity of the disability were studied in a 
      population-based series of Swedish children 2-15 years old. The prevalence per 
      100 000 of total peroneal muscle atrophies was 21.6 and of all clinical HMSN 19.0 
      Among HMSN, de- and remyelinating types (HMSN I) constituted 8 per 100000 and 
      neuronal-axonal types (HMSN II) 11. Eighteen of the 21 HMSN I cases and 26 of the 
      29 HMSN II were considered to represent an autosomal dominant mode of 
      inheritance. Ten per cent of all children were severely, 70% moderately and 20% 
      mildly disabled. All the severely affected children belonged to the HMSN I group 
      and 9 of the 10 mildly affected to HMSN II.
