Primary outcomes
Spastic Paraplegia Rating Scale (SPRS)
Disease severity will be assessed by application of the Spastic Paraplegia Rating Scale (SPRS), a clinical rating scale measuring disease severity in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (Schule et al. Neurology 2006). The SPRS contains 13 items, each ranging from 0 to 4 points. The total score is calculated as the sum of all items, yielding a range for the total score between 0 and 52. Hereby, higher SPRS total scores indicate more severe disease.
