Background: Charcot-Marie-Tooth is the most common inherited neuromuscular disorder. Rarely, it can be associated with heart failure and various arrhythmic disturbances. This case illustrates the challenges of making decisions to prevent sudden cardiac death in a patient with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.

Background And Aims: Wellbeing research among individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is limited. The goal of the current study is to characterize the challenges experienced by adults with CMT that researchers may miss by utilizing typical strategies to capture mental health and wellbeing.
Methods: In 2021, we recruited 288 US adults with CMT ( = 60 years, 59% Female, 93% White) to take part in an online survey.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is the most common hereditary peripheral neuropathy. It presents a wide range of genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. CMT disease type 1A (CMT1A), caused by PMP22 gene duplication, represents the most common subtype of CMT in Western countries.

Background: Spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress type 1 (SMARD1) and Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2S (CMT2S) typically present before age 10. Genetic factors account for up to 50 % of neuropathies, which often display varied symptoms. Mutations in the IGHMBP2 gene are associated with both CMT2S and SMARD1, resulting in a rare clinical condition marked by axonal neuropathy, spinal muscular atrophy, respiratory distress, and muscle weakness.

Axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT2) and distal hereditary motor neuropathy (dHMN) are associated with a heterogeneous group of genes encoding proteins that are involved in axonal transport, control of RNA metabolism, mitochondrial dynamics and DNA repair. VRK1 (vaccinia-related kinase 1) is a serine/threonine kinase which is widely expressed in human tissue and plays a role in RNA maturation and processing and in DNA damage response. Variants of VRK1 have been associated with neurodevelopmental and neuromuscular disorders including pontocerebellar hypoplasia, motor neuron disorders and distal hereditary motor neuropathy.
