AbstractDuchenne muscular dystrophy, an X‐linked disorder, has an incidence of one in 5000 boys and presents in early childhood with proximal muscle weakness. Untreated boys become wheelchair bound by the age of 12 years and die of cardiorespiratory complications in their late teens to early 20s.

Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy are X-linked muscle-wasting disorders that arise from mutations in the gene coding for dystrophin. The incidence of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is approximately 1 in 3500 live male births, one-third of which are sporadic with no previous family history. In the absence of dystrophin, patients with DMD exhibit

By a general survey in the hopitals of northeast Italy, Duchenne cases have been located and identified over a 20-year period. In a more restricted area screening for Duchenne carriers has been carried out in affected families. This procedure made possible an exact estimate of the incidence rate, prevalence rate, and mutation rate in a large sample of ...

Muscular fatigue in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Neurology, 1995We used a 4-minute sustained maximum voluntary contraction to investigate fatigability of the anterior tibial muscle in eight healthy boys and 11 boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) (ages 5 to 10 years). Before exercise, the force generation of dystrophic muscle and the compound muscle action potential amplitude were lower and half-relaxation ...

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

To the Editor.— Dr Sadjadpour's observation (234:382, 1975) about the causes of toe walking in Duchenne muscular dystrophy certainly requires repeated emphasis and consideration in corrective surgical procedures. Toe walking does, indeed, precede contracture of the heel cords, and the unfortunate use of heel-cord lengthening commonly eliminates ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common and severe form of muscular dystrophy and is caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. Dystrophin, together with several other protein components, is part of a complex known as the dystrophin–glycoprotein complex (DGC).
