Plain-language summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of motor and oral motor functions on the quality of life in children aged 2-4 years diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Type I. In the study, the Neuro-Sensory-Motor Developmental Assessment (NSMDA) was used to evaluate motor functions, the Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS) to assess oral motor function, the Behavioral Pediatric Feeding Assessment Scale (BPFAS) to evaluate children's attitudes towards feeding, and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) Neuromuscular Module to assess quality of life.
