Phenotypes associated with the disease hereditary spastic paraplegia 37 (OMIM:611945):
- Impaired vibration sensation in the lower limbs (HP:0002166): A decrease in the ability to perceive vibration in the legs. Evidence: TAS. Frequency: Occasional (HP:0040283). (OMIM:611945)
- Urinary urgency (HP:0000012): Urge incontinence is the strong, sudden need to urinate. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:611945)
- Babinski sign (HP:0003487): Upturning of the big toe (and sometimes fanning of the other toes) in response to stimulation of the sole of the foot. If the Babinski sign is present it can indicate damage to the corticospinal tract. Evidence: TAS. Frequency: Occasional (HP:0040283). (OMIM:611945)
- Lower limb hyperreflexia (HP:0002395): Increased intensity of the a reflex in the leg. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:611945)
- Urinary incontinence (HP:0000020): Loss of the ability to control the urinary bladder leading to involuntary urination. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:611945)
- Spastic gait (HP:0002064): Spasticity is manifested by increased stretch reflex which is intensified with movement velocity. This results in excessive and inappropriate muscle activation which can contribute to muscle hypertonia. Spastic gait is characterized by manifestations such as muscle hypertonia, stiff knee, and circumduction of the leg. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:611945)
- Lower limb spasticity (HP:0002061): Spasticity (velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes with increased muscle tone and hyperexcitable tendon reflexes) in the muscles of the lower limbs, hips, and pelvis. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:611945)
- Ankle clonus (HP:0011448): Clonus is an involuntary tendon reflex that causes repeated flexion and extension of the foot. Ankle clonus is tested by rapidly flexing the foot upward. Evidence: TAS. Frequency: Occasional (HP:0040283). (OMIM:611945)
- Upper limb hyperreflexia (HP:0007350): Increased intensity of the a reflex in the arm. Evidence: TAS. Frequency: Occasional (HP:0040283). (OMIM:611945)
- Spastic paraplegia (HP:0001258): Complete loss of the ability to move the lower limbs accompanied by spasticity of the lower limbs. Evidence: IEA. (OMIM:611945)
- Autosomal dominant inheritance (HP:0000006): A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:611945)
- Upper limb spasticity (HP:0006986). Evidence: TAS. Frequency: Occasional (HP:0040283). (OMIM:611945)
- Slowly progressive (HP:0003677): Applies to a disease manifestation that only slowly increases in scope or severity over the course of time. Evidence: TAS. (OMIM:611945)
