AI Article Synopsis

  • The study suggests that hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) performed before the appearance of neurological symptoms in children with OSTM1 osteopetrosis is ineffective in stopping the progression of neurological issues.
  • This indicates that the timing of HCT may not significantly alter the course of neurological deterioration in these patients.
  • Further research may be needed to explore alternative treatments or interventions to address neurological symptoms associated with OSTM1 osteopetrosis.

Article Abstract
