| Popis: | Aim To investigate the point prevalence of hereditary neuromuscular disorders on January 1, 2020 in Northern Norway. Methods From January 1, 1999, until January 1, 2020, we screened medical and genetic hospital records in Northern Norway for hereditary neuromuscular disorders. Results We identified 542 patients with a hereditary neuromuscular disorder living in Northern Norway, giving a point prevalence of 111.9/100,000 on January 1, 2020. The prevalence of children ( Prevalence study of hereditary neuromuscular disorders (HNMD) in Northern Norway based on medical journals, a national Norwegian registry, and medical genetics data. Results showed a high prevalence of HNMD (111.9/100,000) in Northern Norway. The prevalence of Myotonia Congenita and FKRP‐related Limb‐Girdle Muscular Dystrophy R9 might be the highest worldwide. |
