Background Duchenne (DMD) and Becker (BMD) muscular dystrophies ( MD) are inherited X-linked diseases characterized by absence or decrease of dystrophin, a sarcolemal protein that is essential for maintenance of the muscular membrane integrity during muscular contraction. Cardiac involvement is as high, it can be clinically silent, but is often complicated by severe heart failure and high morta...

Perindopril preventive treatment on mortality in Duchenne muscular dystrophy: 10 years' follow-up.

BACKGROUND Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), an X-linked disorder due to lack of dystrophin, is associated with muscle weakness and myocardial dysfunction. Although preliminary data support the efficacy of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors on left ventricular (LV) function, our aim was to examine the long-term impact of a preventive treatment with perindopril on mortality in children wi...

Effects of steroids and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition on circumferential strain in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy: a cross-sectional and longitudinal study utilizing cardiovascular magnetic resonance

BACKGROUND Steroid use has prolonged ambulation in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and combined with advances in respiratory care overall management has improved such that cardiac manifestations have become the major cause of death. Unfortunately, there is no consensus for DMD-associated cardiac disease management. Our purpose was to assess effects of steroid use alone or in combination with ...
