Abstract

Unlabelled In an attempt to elucidate prognostic factors, the data on 12 boys who underwent haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for cerebral X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy were evaluated. Two further patients received HSCT but died from transplantation-related complications. The data included neurological examination, neuropsychological testing and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Follow-up after HSCT was up to 5.5 years. Six patients showed a moderate to severe clinical deterioration after HSCT including two who died within 6 months. In this group, a MRI severity score of 10 or higher before HSCT was associated with severe impairment and a score of more than 12 was followed by rapid deterioration and death after HSCT. The presence of neurological symptoms before HSCT also affected prognosis. Six patients showed no deterioration in neurological or neuropsychological assessment after HSCT. Conclusion our data confirm that haematopoietic stem cell transplantation can stop the progress of demyelination when performed at a critical early stage of the disease. The prognosis in an individual patient for the clinical course after stem cell transplantation can in general be given based on the status before transplantation, although individual patients may show an unexpected course.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
