ABSTRACT
Quantitative muscle fat fraction (FF) responsiveness is lower in younger Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A) patients with lower baseline calf-level FF. We investigated the practicality, validity, and responsiveness of foot-level FF in this cohort involving 22 CMT1A patients and 14 controls. The mean baseline foot-level FF was 25.9 ± 20.3% in CMT1A patients, and the 365-day FF (n = 15) increased by 2.0 ± 2.4% (p < 0.001 vs controls). Intrinsic foot-level FF demonstrated large responsiveness (12-month standardized response mean (SRM) of 0.86) and correlated with the CMT examination score (ρ = 0.58, P = 0.01). Intrinsic foot-level FF has the potential to be used as a biomarker in future clinical trials involving younger CMT1A patients. ANN NEUROL 2024;96170-174.
