Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Proteome‐Wide Analysis of Human Deletions

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein deletions are frequent among both natural and pathogenic variations. Many of them are misclassified in variation databases and the literature. Nonsense‐mediated decay prevents the expression of many nucleotide deletions. Many variants classified as protein deletions are not expressed at all.

Height, weight, and body mass index trajectories and their correlation with functional outcome assessments in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
The analysis of height, weight, and BMI z‐score trajectories in boys with DMD from the FOR‐DMD study showed that higher baseline height was associated with slower subsequent growth, and older age with greater weight gain after glucocorticoid initiation.

Screening for brain‐related comorbidities in Duchenne muscular dystrophy: Construction, reliability, and validity of the BIND screener

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
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.

‘I Do Feel Some Level of Solidarity… in an Individual Way’: Disability Solidarity, Disability Identity and the Role of Social Services

open access: yesSocial Policy &Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on social policy and solidarity often highlights disability as a paradigmatic case of a ‘deserving’ group that warrants social support. However, this hierarchical view of solidarity frequently ignores the role of solidarity in the lived experiences and everyday practices of disabled people themselves.
