Primary |
World Health Organization (WHO) motor milestone change |
Treated and untreated patients with SMA Type 1-3: change of WHO motor milestone from baseline to 3 years to track the patients' motor functional development/status. World Health Organization motor milestone score ranges from 0 to 18. The higher the score is, the better the motor function is. |
baseline, 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination-2 (HINE-2) scale score change |
Treated and untreated patients with SMA Type 1-3: change of HINE-2 scale score from baseline to 3 years to help track the patients' motor functional development/status. The HINE-2 scale score ranges from 0 to 26. The higher the score is, the better the motor function is. |
baseline, 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Self-reporting/Caregivers' reporting collection |
Treated and untreated patients with SMA Type 1-3: motor function change acquired from patients themselves and their caregivers. (Subjective reports were collected through interviews and no evaluation scale was used here.) |
baseline, 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Motor function evalution-Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test of Neuromuscular Disorders(CHOP INTEND) scale |
For children = 2 years: change of CHOP INTEND scale score. The CHOP INTEND scale score ranges from 0 to 64. The higher the score is, the better the motor function is. |
treated/untreated: baseline, 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Motor function evalution-Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale-Expanded(HFMSE) scale |
For children older than 2 years, ambulatory or not: Change of HFMSE scale score. The scale score ranges from 0 to 66. The higher the score is, the better the motor function is. |
treated/untreated: baseline, 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Motor function evalution-Revised Upper Limb Module(RULM) scale |
For children children older than 6 years, ambulatory or not: Change of RULM (Revised Upper Limb Module) scale score. The scale score ranges from 0 to 37. The higher the score is, the better the motor function is. |
treated/untreated: baseline, 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Motor function evalution change-6 minutes walking test(6MWT) |
For ambulatory individuals: added the change of 6MWT from baseline to 3 years to test exercise endurance. (The walking distance within 6 minutes is taken as the evaluation index, and there's no specific score range.) |
treated/untreated: baseline, 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Yearly changes of incidence and morbi-mortality-vital events |
Events of newly diagnosis, hospitalizations, recurrent infections, fractures, complications and death. |
every year for 3 years |
|
Primary |
Change from baseline respiratory function |
Onset of respiratory support or change in the mode and time (including intubations). |
baseline(before treatment), 1 year, 2 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Change from baseline digestive-nutritional function |
Digestive events, onset of nutritional support or change in the mode and time and special intervention. |
baseline(before treatment), 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Primary |
Change from baseline spinal scoliosis Cobb angle |
Onset of spinal deformity, or increment of over 5° in the Cobb angle (examination in supine position or in the upright position, with or without brace, with or without implant (surgery), and the change of the bone mineral density in lumbar. |
baseline(before treatment), 1 year, 2 year, 3 year |
|
Secondary |
Pulmonary function |
Pulmonary Function Test (PFT)will be evaluated at least once per year for children > 5 years, by specifying the posture of realization of the test, lying vs sitting. |
baseline(before treatment), 1 year, 2 year, 3 year |
|
Secondary |
Cardiological function monitoring |
Conventional echocardiography will be evaluated to monitor the patients' cardiac function. |
baseline(before treatment), 1 year, 2 year, 3 year |
|
Secondary |
Body composition measurement-Lean body mass |
Lean body mass will be measured in patients older than three years by DXA or Inbody device at least once a year. |
baseline(before treatment), 1 year, 2 year, 3 year |
|
Secondary |
Body composition measurement-Fat mass |
Fat mass will be measured in patients older than three years by DXA or Inbody device at least once a year. |
baseline(before treatment), 1 year, 2 year, 3 year |
|
Secondary |
Biomarkers |
Change of biomarkers: such as Neurofilaments. |
baseline(before treatment), 0.5 year, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 year, 2.5 year, 3 year |
|
Secondary |
Patients and caregivers' quality of life |
Questionary as the "PedsQL Child report/PedsQL parent report concerning child" will be used to evaluate patient's quality of life. The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Measurement Models (PedsQLTM) is used for this evalution. The minimum score is 0 and no specific maximum score of this scale. The higher the score is, the higher the quality of life is. |
baseline(before treatment), 1 year, 2 year, 3 year |
