Patterns of late gadolinium enhancement in Duchenne muscular dystrophy carriers
BACKGROUND This study was designed to assess whether cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in Duchenne muscular dystrophy carriers (DMDc) may index any cell milieu elements of LV dysfunction and whether this cardiac phenotype may be related to genotype. The null hypothesis was that myocardial fibrosis, assessed by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), might be similarly accounted for in ...
متن کاملP164: Adeno-Associated Viral Vectors in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (BMD) is an inherited X-link disease. The incidence of this muscle-wasting disease is 1:5000 male live births. Mutation in the gene coding for dystrophin is the main cause of BMD. Most cases of this disease succumb to respiratory and cardiac failure in 3rd to 4th decades. The slow progression of BMD and recent achievement of gene therapies make it as an appropriate c...
متن کاملDuchenne muscular dystrophy An overview of Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) affects approximately 1 in 3,500 live male births [1]. It is caused by a large variety of mutations in the dystrophin gene. Because of these mutations, the body can no longer make dystrophin which is a protein important for stabilisation of the muscle cell during a contraction. Without dystrophin, muscle cells are damaged and slowly replaced by fat and scar tis...

All rights re http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.nmd.2013.07.013 We read with interest the recent debate on steroids, growth and motor function decline in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) [1–3]. The efficacy and safety of growth hormone treatment in 39 ambulant DMD boys with glucocorticoid-induced growth failure was recently evaluated [3]. The authors o...
متن کاملDetection of the Duplication in Exons 56-63 of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Patients with MLPA
Background Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a deadly X-linked recessive disorder. This genetic disorder affects 1 among 3,500-5,000 males in the world. The majority of the patients are male, due to the type of inheritance. It affects most of the skeletal, the respiratory, and cardiac muscles, causing these vital organs to contract and eventually mortality.<br...
