Abstract

A spectrum of hereditary diseases of the nervous system (HDNS) was studied in the cities of Volgograd and Volzhsky. The estimates were obtained for the prevalence of major HDNS groups and individual nosological forms. The populations examined differed in prevalence of this pathology and in contribution of individual diseases and their nosological forms into HDNS load formation. The effect of the population dynamics in Volgograd and Volzhsky on the HDNS prevalence is discussed.
