Universal Proteomic Signature After Exercise‐Induced Muscle Injury in Muscular Dystrophies
Objective Several neuromuscular disorders (NMDs) are characterized by progressive muscle damage and are marked by the elevation of circulating muscle proteins from activity‐related injury.

Quantitative Guanidinium CEST‐Based pH Mapping at 3 T in Healthy and Pathological Muscle
Chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) enables high‐resolution pH mapping by measuring the exchange rate between guanidinium and water protons. The current method is based on the Z‐spectra fitting with Bloch–McConnell (BM) equations and allows us to detect pH variations on the order of 0.02 pH units in the very restrained pathophysiological pH ...

The Brain Involvement iN Dystrophinopathies (BIND) screener is an 18‐item questionnaire with strong reliability and validity for identifying potential brain‐related comorbidities in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It allows rapid, cross‐age and cross‐country screening for both clinical and research purposes, demonstrating good sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory adults have an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures due to reduced weight‐bearing and diminished neuromuscular stimulation, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Aims This scoping review aimed to systematically evaluate risk factors, diagnostic indicators and management strategies for optimising ...

Cardiac involvement in the dystrophinopathies
The dystrophinopathies are a group of disorders that are characterized by absence or deficiency of functional dystrophin, a large cytoskeletal protein of striated muscle that is closely associated with transmembrane glycoprotein complexes.

Muscular dystrophies: key elements for everyday diagnosis and management
Muscular dystrophies are a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders that share similar clinical features and dystrophic changes on muscle biopsy, associated with progressive weakness. Weakness may be noted at birth or develop in late adult life.
