Quality of life in hereditary and inflammatory nerve diseases
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how nerve diseases that run in families or are caused by inflammation affect day-to-day quality of life. You'll fill out questionnaires about your experiences, which can help doctors better understand and support patients like you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a nerve disease that is either inherited or caused by inflammation.
- You are able to give your permission (informed consent) to take part.
- You can fill out questionnaires, either on your own or with help from a caregiver.
- You do not have a legal guardian or conservator managing your affairs.
- You do not have significant memory or thinking problems (like a score below 27 on a standard thinking test).
- You are not currently receiving chemotherapy or radiation for active cancer.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial looks at changes in nerve function and related test results in people with chronic (long-lasting) nerve problems that are getting worse. It may help researchers better understand different causes of neuropathy and how to distinguish them.
This study looks at how chemotherapy-related nerve damage affects daily activities like walking and standing. It includes people who currently have or have had nerve-damaging chemotherapy and are experiencing nerve pain or weakness.
This study looks at how chemotherapy that can affect nerves (“neurotoxic” chemo) changes nerve function over time. It may help researchers better measure nerve side effects and improve care for people who need these cancer treatments.
This study helps doctors better understand and measure sensory nerve damage (nerves that feel pain, temperature, and touch). You may qualify if you have a specific type of nerve damage caused by cancer, autoimmune disease, platinum chemotherapy, or a rare genetic condition.
This trial looks at people with Sjögren who may have small-fiber nerve problems that can cause pain, temperature-related nerve symptoms, or body-function nerve issues. It aims to understand how these nerve problems affect quality of life and medical needs, and compare them with people without neuropathy.
This study looks at genetic differences in people being checked for a common type of nerve problem called distal symmetric polyneuropathy (nerve damage that usually affects the hands and feet). By understanding genetics, researchers hope to learn more about why neuropathic (nerve) pain happens and how it may differ between people.
