Official title
Prader-Willi Syndrome and Early-onset Morbid Obesity Natural History Clinical Protocol
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects about 1 in 14,000 people in the United States. As the most commonly identified genetic cause of obesity, PWS is often confused with Early-onset Morbid Obesity (EMO). Individuals with EMO show some signs of PWS, but clinically do not have PWS. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical features and genetic basis of PWS and EMO, and to determine how these conditions affect a person throughout a lifetime.
