SMA Solar Technology AG (meaning System, Mess and Anlagentechnik) is a German solar energy equipment supplier founded in 1981 and headquartered in Niestetal, Northern Hesse, Germany. SMA is a producer and manufacturer of solar inverters for photovoltaics systems with grid connection, off-grid power supply and backup operations.
The drug is used to treat spinal muscular atrophy associated with a mutation in the SMN1 gene. It is administered directly to the central nervous system (CNS) using intrathecal injection. [4] In clinical trials, the drug halted the disease progression. In around 60% of infants affected by type 1 spinal muscular atrophy, it improves motor ...
Superior mesenteric artery compressing the duodenum, featuring the superior mesenteric artery syndrome. Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome is a gastro-vascular disorder in which the third and final portion of the duodenum is compressed between the abdominal aorta (AA) and the overlying superior mesenteric artery.
The management of isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (ISMAD) often involves conservative treatment, which includes blood pressure lowering therapy, analgesics, and initial bowel rest. [4] Periodic follow-ups with CT angiography are a part of the conservative treatment approach. Over time, many patients show improvement or no change ...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a rare neuromuscular disorder that results in the loss of motor neurons and progressive muscle wasting. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] It is usually diagnosed in infancy or early childhood and if left untreated it is the most common genetic cause of infant death. [ 6 ]
The interface dimensions for SMA connectors are listed in MIL-STD-348. [5] The SMA connector employs a 1 ⁄ 4 inch diameter, 36-thread-per-inch threaded barrel. The male is equipped with a hex nut measuring 5 ⁄ 16 inch (0.3125 inch / 7.9 mm) across opposite flats, thus taking the same wrench as a #6 SAE hex nut.
XL-SMA is characterized by severe hypotonia and areflexia with loss of anterior horn cells in the spinal cord (i.e., lower motor neurons). [4] The disease course is similar to that in the most severe forms of classic autosomal recessive SMA caused by mutation of SMN1: SMA type 0 (SMA0) and SMA type I (SMA1). [4]
Distal spinal muscular atrophy type 1 (DSMA1), also known as spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress type 1 (SMARD1), is a rare neuromuscular disorder involving death of motor neurons in the spinal cord which leads to a generalised progressive atrophy of body muscles.
