Calculation of the Minimal Clinically Important Difference in Upper and Lower Limb Motor Assessment in Spinal Muscular Atrophy
We calculated MCID values for physical function evaluations of SMA and, as a sub-analysis, determined the SMA type and ambulatory status. These findings are expected to contribute to future SMA treatment and rehabilitation and promote the selection of appropriate physical function assessments.
