Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Self-Notion and Perception (SNAP) questionnaire developed at IRCCS E.Medea by Eleonora Diella and Roberta Morganti, arises from the need to quantify the subjective perception of the patient suffering from HSP of the typical symptoms of pathology, such as spasticity, weakness, changes in balance, resistance in walking, pain and fatigue. The purpose of this study is to validate this instrument and test its reliability, looking for correlations with the measurement scales used in the literature for the evaluation of the patient with HSP. The most used for this population are the Spastic Paraplegia Rating Scale (SPRS) and the Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) which assess the severity of the disease and the level of endurance (8-9) respectively.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

patients affected by hereditary spastic paraplegia

40 subjects affected by genetically determined hereditary spastic paraparesis or subjects without defined genetics but who unequivocally show a dominant or recessive familiarity with exclusive involvement of the pyramidal system.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

SNAP questionnaire

Intervention Type OTHER

The SNAP questionnaire will be administered 2 times in 2 consecutive days to evaluate its reliability. The questionnaire will be self-filled by the patient. Then the SPRS scale and, where possible, the 6MWT will be administered.

healthy subjects

40 healthy subjects will also be recruited to whom the questionnaire will be submitted to assess the variability of the score within a healthy population.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

SNAP questionnaire

Intervention Type OTHER

The SNAP questionnaire will be administered 2 times in 2 consecutive days to evaluate its reliability. The questionnaire will be self-filled by the patient. Then the SPRS scale and, where possible, the 6MWT will be administered.
