<unk>  (DSMA1), also known as<unk>  muscular atrophy with respiratory distress type<unk>  (SMARD1), is a rare neuromuscular disorder involving death of motor neurons in the<unk>  cord which leads to a generalised progressive atrophy of body muscles. The condition is caused by a genetic mutation in the IGHMBP2 gene and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. There is no known cure to DSMA1, and research of the disorder is still in early stages due to low incidence and high mortality rates.
