Bone marrow transplantation as effective treatment of central nervous system disease in globoid cell leukodystrophy, metachromatic leukodystrophy, adrenoleukodystrophy, mannosidosis, fucosidosis, aspartylglucosaminuria, Hurler, Maroteaux-Lamy, and Sly syndromes, and Gaucher disease type III
Abstract
Over 400 patients with lysosomal and peroxisomal storage diseases have received hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from normal donors. Without treatment, all of these diseases have an inexorable fate leading to central nervous system deterioration and early death. On the other hand, all of the engrafted hosts have had a remarkable positive clinical improvement in response to normalization of previously deficient enzymatic activity. Survival data for those engrafted indicates continued life-span as long as two decades beyond transplantation. The particular diseases treated in this way are included in this article. The specific indications and methods for transplantation are also included in this article.

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.
