Twenty five years of rehabilitation of progressive muscular dystrophy.

Forty-Five Years of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in The Netherlands.

BACKGROUND Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive muscle disease. No curative therapy is currently available, but in recent decades standards of care have improved. These improvements include the use of corticosteroids and mechanical ventilation. OBJECTIVE To present a detailed population based report of the DMD disease course in The Netherlands (1980-2006) and evaluate the effect...

[Progressive muscular dystrophy].

This paper describes the case of a young man with progressive muscular dystrophy who had supraventricular arrhythmias and intractable congestive failure. Hemodynamic studies and left cineventriculographic findings were compatible with a diagnosis of severe left ventricular failure. Coronary cinearteriography showed an abrupt ending of the artery to the sino-atrial node. At necropsy, a noninflam...

Twenty-Five Years of Hydroinformatics

Hydroinformatics emerged in 1991 when numerical modelling of water expanded its range from one that was restricted to the modelling of flows to a much wider ranging sociotechnical discipline that supports stakeholders in addressing their water-related problems. However, despite numerous advances in hydroinformatics, the current practical and research effort is still very much technocratic (or t...
