Alström disease is a condition of autosomal recessive trait disorders that are characterized. At the same time, cone-rod spinal muscular atrophy, hearing impairment, adolescent upper abdominal overweight, insulin sensitivity but also insulin production, insulin-dependent, hypercholesterolemia, present approximately through sexual maturity, myocardial ...
