I was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy at the age of 3. My parents were always honest about my disease, but I didn’t really care much about it. As the progression was slow, I gradually began to understand its impact, including the physical restrictions. I’m now severely disabled and have lived much longer than the doctors expected.

Witnessed inclusion improves identification of Duchenne and non‐Duchenne smiles
British Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2022AbstractSocial exclusion threatens a person's need to belong and prompts them to behave in ways that often facilitate reaffiliation. For adults, direct exclusion increases attention to social information and facial cues, including an enhanced identification of Duchenne and non‐Duchenne smiles.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy and epilepsy
Neuromuscular Disorders, 2013Cognitive and behavioral difficulties occur in approximately a third of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of epilepsy in a cohort of 222 DMD patients. Epileptic seizures were found in 14 of the 222 DMD patients (6.3%). The age of onset ranged from 3 months to 16 years (mean 7.8).

Duchenne's muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive muscle disease that inexorably results in death at about the age of 20 years. Unfortunately, there is no effective therapy for this disease. It is an X-linked recessive disorder that almost exclusively occurs in boys. Classic clinical signs are recognized around the age of 3 to 5 years. The diagnosis

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked disease of muscle caused by an absence of the protein dystrophin. Affected boys begin manifesting signs of disease early in life, cease walking at the beginning of the second decade, and usually die by age 20 years. Until treatment of the basic genetic defect is available, medical, surgical, and rehabilitative

Duchenne’s muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive X-linked recessive disorder that affects boys and female carriers. It is the most common dystrophy with onset in childhood in the United States. It is associated with severe, progressive proximal muscle weakening due to absence of dystrophin, which is found in skeletal and cardiac muscles This ...
