I went to the hospital for a checkup, and the doctor said my illness was caused by malnutrition—could it be spongiform leukoencephalopathy?

Dr. Wang Mingxuan
The main manifestation is decreased vision in patients. In the early stages of this disease, personality changes and gait disturbances are likely to occur. Canavan disease is a congenital disorder associated with abnormalities in human gene sequences. Early treatment of this condition leads to better outcomes; therefore, prompt intervention is essential to prevent adverse consequences.
