Prognosis of Right Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction in Patients With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Background Chronic respiratory failure and heart involvement may occur in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. We aimed to assess the prognostic value of the right ventricular (RV) systolic dysfunction in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Reachable Workspace as a Clinical Outcome for Upper Extremity Function: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Motion sensing technology can be utilized to capture detailed upper extremity (UE) motion to reconstruct an individual's three‐dimensional (3D) reachable workspace (RWS). The RWS can be quantified as relative surface area (RSA), providing an innovative surrogate measure to assess UE mobility and function.

Elevation of transaminases. What if not the liver?
Background. According to Russian studies, the average age of Duchenne muscular dystrophy diagnosis is 7-8 years. This is because, on one hand, Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a rare disease, and a doctor may never see it throughout their clinical practice.

Quantitative MRI Assessment of Myotoxin‐Induced Skeletal Muscle Damage of mdx Mice
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been extensively applied in dystrophic muscle, longitudinal characterization of multiple quantitative MRI parameters during degeneration and regeneration remains limited. This study aimed to longitudinally characterize changes in quantitative MRI parameters in control and ...
