The registry should ask the individual to upload (if the registry’s platform supports this) or send a copy of their genetic report to confirm their diagnosis and enter the data collected in the following items. Furthermore, the name and location of the genetic testing centre should be collected locally, as this will allow curators to request a copy of the genetic report if it is not immediately available or to request further clarification or information if needed (permission to do this should be sought within the consent process where applicable).
Specifies whether the diagnosis has been genetically confirmed. If the genetic test results are pending, the value must be No
.
This item refers to a diagnosis of 5q SMA. If the value is Yes
, the results must be captured in one or more instances of the record Genetic report

In version 2.0, the following changes were applied:
Homozygous substitution
was added.Description of the variant according to HGVS nomenclature.
The variant described here must be located in the SMN1 gene. The value must be collected only if the variant includes a substitution (point mutation), i.e. SMN1 variant
is either Compound heterozygous deletion exon 7
, Compound heterozygous substitutions
or Homozygous substitution
. Otherwise it should be collected. If the reference sequence is known, it must be included.
Examples:
NM_000344.3:c.[824_834del];[815A>G]
for a compound heterozygous deletion of exon 7 and a substitutionNM_000344.3:c.[c.815A>C];[c.821C>T]
for compound heterozygous substitutionsItem type: | restricted text |
Usage in other datasets: | DMDLGMD |
This item was added in version 2.0 to allow providing details in case of a substitution.
Testing method used to obtain the genetic result.
Registries may add an additional free-text field in their data collections forms to capture possible methods other than the ones provided in this item; values in the free-text field should be checked by a curator and mapped to the provided values wherever possible. New methods may be added to the dataset by TREAT-NMD whenever appropriate.

Specifies whether the variant c.859G>C is present in the SMN2 gene. Yes
means that the variant was found, No
means that the variant was checked for but not found.
The ID of this item does not contain the period and the character '>' because they are not valid characters for identifiers in many software environments. Data collection forms should display the HGVS-compliant variant description “c.859G>C” in questions or labels.
