Duchenne muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2021
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a severe, progressive, muscle-wasting disease that leads to difficulties with movement and, eventually, to the need for assisted ventilation and premature death. The disease is caused by mutations in DMD (encoding dystrophin) that abolish the production of dystrophin in muscle.

Duchenne expert physician perspectives on Duchenne newborn screening and early Duchenne care

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2022
AbstractDuchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive, fatal neuromuscular disorder typically diagnosed between 4 and 5 years of age. DMD currently has five FDA approved therapies, which has led to increased interest in newborn screening (NBS) for DMD.
