RESUMEN

Introducción:

la atrofia muscular espinal (AME) es la primera causa de origen genético de muerte en la infancia. En los últimos 20 años han sido excepcionales los avances en el conocimiento de su base genética, de su historia natural y se han desarrollado estándares de cuidado y nuevas terapias. Este veloz aumento del conocimiento ha llevado al desarrollo de terapias eficaces para esta devastadora enfermedad, pero el tiempo son neuronas, y esa frase nos lleva a pensar la importancia del diagnóstico precoz y, por qué no, del diagnóstico presintomático mediante pesquisa neonatal.

Métodos:

revisión de la bibliografía disponible, a través de búsqueda en PubMed y Google para trabajos no indexados o publicaciones de organismos de Salud.

Resultados:

varios estudios clínicos han mostrado la mayor eficacia del tratamiento en pacientes presintomáticos, por lo que lograrlo en estos pacientes llevaría a cambiar radicalmente la historia de esta enfermedad.

Conclusión:

es importante analizar y promover el desarrollo de pilotos para pesquisa neonatal en vistas a lograr experiencia para, a partir de ello, pensar en la posibilidad de incorporarlo a programas nacionales. (AU)
ABSTRACT

Introduction:

spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is the first cause of genetic origin of death in childhood. Throughout the last 20 years, we have witnessed exceptional advances in the knowledge of its genetic base, the history of its nature and several standards of care and new therapies have been developed. This rapid increase in knowledge has led to the development of effective therapies for this devastating disease. However, time is neurons, and that phrase reminds us of the importance of early diagnosis, and, why not, of pre-symptomatic diagnosis by means of neonatal screening.

Methods:

review of scientific papers searching in Pubmed or Google for non-indexed articles or publications of Health organisms.

Results:

several clinical studies have shown the greatest effectiveness of treatment in pre-symptomatic patients, so achieving the same in these patients would result in radically changing the history of this disease.

Discussion:

it is important to analyze and promote the development of pilots for neonatal screening in order to gain experience, so from there on to be able to think about the possibility of incorporating it into national programs. (AU)
