Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disorder that can affect individuals of any race, but it is most commonly observed in Caucasian populations. The incidence is higher in individuals of European descent, particularly those of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, where carrier rates are significantly elevated. However, SMA can occur in all ethnic groups, and awareness and screening are important for early diagnosis and intervention.
