Early detection of Severe
Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is vital
for prevention of permanent disabilities or mortality of neonates. SCID is a
congenital genetic disorder that causes life-threatening problems by supressing
the immune system. This immunodeficiency occurs due to the lack of T cells, B
cells and NK cells count. SMA is autosomal recessive disorder that causes
neuromuscular disorder. This disorder is characterized by progressive
degeneration and irreversible loss of lower motor neurons.
