Question with more than one answer: 1. All of them, since there is no cure. In singular cases, disease progression has been slowed by a hematopoetic stem cell transplant (HSCT). In the rare case that a child is known to have MLD before symptoms show (IE if a sibling has been diagnosed with MLD before), a HSCT has prevented symptoms to appear.

2. None, since cause of death is not by MLD itself, but by related illnesses, such as infections, pneumonia, metabolism and general pain issues.
