Natural history study of sialidosis type I
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study follows people with sialidosis type I over time to understand how the condition progresses. Participants will have regular exams, blood draws, brain scans, and eye tests.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Tolerate having a moderate amount of blood drawn.
- Complete electrical nerve and muscle tests.
- Have an electroencephalogram (EEG) and brain MRI.

This study follows people with Sanfilippo syndrome type C to better understand how the disease changes over time. It does not appear to test a new medicine; instead, it collects health and development information that can help future treatments.
This study follows people with MPS IIIC (Sanfilippo syndrome type C) over time to understand how the disease changes. It does not test a new treatment, but helps researchers learn more about the condition, which could lead to better care in the future.
This study follows people with gangliosidosis to better understand how the condition changes over time. You may be asked to complete thinking/behavior tests and, if you have late-onset disease, get a head MRI (a painless scan) to help researchers track changes in the brain.
This study follows people with rare genetic conditions (GM1, GM2, sialidosis, or galactosialidosis) that affect how the body breaks down certain substances in cells. Researchers track how these diseases progress to better understand them and potentially help future patients.
This observational study and patient registry collects information from people diagnosed with SPLIS due to specific changes in the SGPL1 gene, including children and newborns. It helps researchers understand the condition better and may improve future care and research planning.
This study collects health information from people with SPLIS to better understand the condition over time. It may include your siblings if they also have SPLIS, and data from patients who have passed away.
