The life expectancy of individuals with MPS VI varies depending on the severity of symptoms. Without treatment, some individuals may survive through late childhood or early adolescence. People with milder forms of the disorder usually live into adulthood, although they may have reduced life expectancy. Heart disease and airway obstruction are ...
L1 syndrome is a group of mild to severe X-linked recessive disorders that share a common genetic basis. The spectrum of L1 syndrome disorders includes X-linked complicated corpus callosum dysgenesis, spastic paraplegia 1, MASA syndrome, and X-linked hydrocephalus with stenosis of the aqueduct of Sylvius (HSAS).
The onset of symptoms tends to be fairly gradual and to occur over 1-12 years. [citation needed] Symptoms of Hashimoto's encephalopathy may include: [citation needed] Personality changes; Aggression; Delusional behavior; Concentration and memory problems; Coma; Disorientation; Headaches; Jerks in the muscles (myoclonus – 65% of cases)
IHME noted that life expectancy gains nationwide are not keeping pace with other countries. The US’ global ranking is expected to decline to 66th in 2050 among 204 countries and territories.
Life expectancy for type A is approximately 10 to 20 years. These symptoms are seen in CS type 1 children. Cockayne syndrome type B (CSB), also known as "cerebro-oculo-facio-skeletal (COFS) syndrome" (or "Pena-Shokeir syndrome type B"), is the most severe subtype. Symptoms are present at birth and normal brain development stops after birth.
