Observational Study of Neurologic Manifestations in Immune System Diseases

This observational study aims to better understand how immune system diseases affect the nervous system. Researchers want to learn more about the connection between these two systems and how immune problems can lead to neurological issues like problems with movement, thinking, or feeling. The study will look at people aged 2 and older who have known or suspected immune system diseases, as well as healthy relatives and volunteers. There are no specific interventions (treatments) being tested. The main goals are to describe the neurological symptoms in participants through exams and brain imaging, and to identify any genetic causes of their immune system problems. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 350 participants.

Study design
This is an observational study, meaning no specific treatments are given. It plans to enroll 350 participants, including those with immune system diseases, healthy relatives, and healthy volunteers.
What's involved
You would undergo periodic clinical evaluations, including neurologic exams and potentially neuroimaging (like MRI). Biospecimens such as blood, urine, and saliva may be collected. Data and specimens from your routine medical care might also be used.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your neurological symptoms and immune system characteristics will be measured through the end of your participation in the study.
