Oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy: the muscular dystrophies
2001Abstract Sweden, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Taiwan, United Kingdom, United States, Uzbekistan, Uruguay and Yugoslavia. However, OPMD is particularly prevalent in the French–Canadian population (1 1000) and in Bukhara Jews living in Israel (1: 600) (Blumen et al. 1997; Brais et al. 1995).

PHOSPHODIESTERS IN MUSCULAR DYSTROPHIES
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1979Phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance studies of various normal and dystrophic muscles have demonstrated differences in phosphodiester contents. Dystrophic chicken pectoralis muscle contains elevated levels of the diester SEP, and Duchenne dystrophic human leg muscle lacks the diester GPC. It is shown that SEP may be characteristic of slow fiber types,

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 muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a complex disease characterized by multiple physiologic perturbations, progressively leading to cardiomyopathy, respiratory failure, and, eventually, death. Patients with DMD create unique challenges for the anesthesia team, including management of a difficult airway, avoidance of volatile anesthetics and ...

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy
Current Opinion in Neurology, 2009Knowledge of the pathogenetic mechanisms in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy is still scattered, but has recently been advanced through novel developments on the genetic scientific front.The present brief review highlights some recent studies on the pathogenesis of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy pointing to major involvement of muscle ...

Oculopharyngeal Muscular Dystrophy
Seminars in Neurology, 1999Autosomal dominant oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) is an adult-onset disease with worldwide distribution. It usually presents in the fifth or sixth decades with progressive dysphagia, eyelid ptosis, and proximal limb weakness. Unique intranuclear filament inclusions in skeletal muscle fibers are its morphological hallmark. Surgical correction

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
