Brief Summary
Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), a therapeutically orphan neuromuscular disease affecting one in 2,500 people, represents a challenge to the medical and scientific communities. Physiotherapeutic-rehabilitative strategies play a crucial role in the management of CMT, particularly addressing balance impairment, a key disabling symptom. However, clinical studies in this field are limited. Our study aims to investigate the impact of strengh and somatosensory deficits on static and dynamic balance in CMT patients. The Investigators also aim to explore the involvement of the vestibular system and its correlation with postural instability. Furthermore, the Investigators seek to evaluate relationships between neurochemical biomarkers offering valuable insights for future targeted clinical studies.
