Genotype–Phenotype Correlations in Iranian Myotonic Dystrophy Type I Patients
Objectives: Myotonic Dystrophy type I (DM1) is a dominantly inherited disorder with a multisystemic pattern affecting skeletal muscle, heart, eye, endocrine and central nervous system. DM1 is associated with the expansion and instability of CTG repeat in the 3chr('39') untranslated region of the myotonic dystrophy protein kinase (DMPK) gene located on chromosome 19q13.3. The aim of this study w...

SYNOPSIS A case of myotonic dystrophy accompanied by alveolar hypoventilation and hypersomnia is presented. Radiological studies and EMG examination of the intercostal muscles demonstrated that the respiratory muscles were affected by the disease, while polygraphic recordings showed that the alveolar hypoventilation and pulmonary hypertension worsened during sleep. The hypersomnia preceded the ...
متن کاملOcular motor myotonic phenomenon in myotonic dystrophy.
OBJECTIVE To detect disconjugate ocular motor abnormalities and a possible extraocular muscle myotonic phenomenon in patients with myotonic dystrophy (MyD). METHODS The magnetic scleral search coil technique was used to record monocularly the small (25 degrees ) and large (50 degrees ) saccades, which were paced to two interstimulus intervals (ISIs), one short (1 s), the other long (5 s). The...
متن کاملNoninvasive assessment of left ventricular function in myotonic muscular dystrophy.
In order to assess left ventricular function, measurements of left ventricular internal dimension and its rate of change have been made by echocardiography in 7 patients with myotonic dystrophy and the three children of one of them, who were clinically normal but had abnormal muscle biopsies. Electrocardiograms and systolic time intervals were also recorded in all. Only one patient had signs of...
