NCT04154540

Brief Summary

If the classification between hereditary and acquired neuropathy is often easy, there is no completely specific marker allowing the distinction between the two etiologies. Clinical experience suggests that hereditary neuropathies have less impact on balance and gait than the acquired neuropathies at equivalent level of impairment, but this has never been clearly demonstrated.
