Introduction: Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a genetic X-linked recessive disorder. This condition is characterized by progressive loss of muscle tissue. Thus, it results in deterioration and inability to perform basic motor skills such as independent

Advances in genomic, proteomic, and transcriptomic technologies are transforming the diagnosis of genetic myopathies. When integrated with traditional muscle pathology, multi‐omics approaches improve diagnostic yield, clarify disease mechanisms, and support more precise, mechanism‐based therapeutic strategies for patients with neuromuscular disorders ...

Predicting Loss of Ambulation in Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy R9
ABSTRACT Background Limb girdle muscular dystrophy type R9 (LGMDR9) results from biallelic variants in FKRP. There is limited data to predict loss of ambulation (LOA) among those with LGMDR9. Methods Participants in an ongoing dystroglycanopathy natural history study (NCT00313677) with FKRP variants who had achieved ambulation and were more than 3 ...

Prevalence and Characteristics of Cardiac Arrhythmia in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: A Retrospective, Single-Center Holter Electrocardiographic Monitoring Study. [PDF]
In this retrospective single‐center study of 1018 routine Holter ECG recordings from 167 patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, nonsustained ventricular tachycardia and frequent premature ventricular complexes were common. Reduced left ventricular function was the strongest associated factor, supporting regular Holter monitoring for patients at ...

A flexible, ultrathin multi‐channel microelectrode array (MEA) conformally integrated onto a curved slide‐well enables stable electrical interfacing with 3D cardiac organoids. The geometry‐guided self‐alignment allows simultaneous recording of extracellular field potentials and contractile motion from irregular, beating tissues.

Cognitive Function in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Patients
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a rare, progressive, X-linked recessive disorder, characterized by impaired synthesis of the protein dystrophin. Motor symptoms in boys typically emerge within the first year of life, followed by progressive cardiac ...
