Ion channels in a skeletal muscle cell line from a Duchenne muscular dystrophy patient
(John Wiley and Sons, 1994)
A cell line (RCDMD), derived from a muscle biopsy taken from a 7-year-old patient with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), was established in vitro using conditioned media from the UCHT1 thyroid cell line as described ...
Lung function monitoring in patients with duchenne muscular dystrophy on steroid therapy
(BioMed CentralLondon, 2012)
Background
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a sex-linked inherited muscle disease characterized by a progressive loss in muscle strength and respiratory muscle involvement. After 12 years of age, lung function declines ...
Psychophysical measurements of luminance and chromatic spatial and temporal contrast sensitivity in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
(Pontificia Universidade Católica do Rio de JaneiroUniversidade de BrasíliaUniversidade de São Paulo, 2011)
In children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, color vision losses have been related to dystrophin deletions downstream of exon 30, which affect a dystrophin isoform, Dp260, present in the retina. To further evaluate visual ...
Influence of different types of corticosteroids on heart rate variability of individuals with duchenne muscular dystrophy—a pilot cross sectional study
(2021-08-01)
Individuals with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) have an impairment of cardiac autonomic function categorized by parasympathetic reduction and sympathetic predominance. The objective of this study was to assess the cardiac ...
Autonomic modulation at rest and in response to postural change in adolescents with Duchenne muscular dystrophy: A cross-sectional study
(2021-01-01)
Background: Analysis of autonomic modulation after postural change may inform the prognosis and guide treatment in different populations. However, this has been insufficiently explored among adolescents with Duchenne ...
Autonomic Modulation in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy During a Computer Task: A Prospective Transversal Controlled Trial Assessment by Non-linear Techniques
(2021-11-23)
Introduction: Due to functional and autonomic difficulties faced by individuals with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), the use of assistive technology is critical to provide or facilitate functional abilities. The key ...
Impaired regeneration of dystrophin-deficient muscle fibers is caused by exhaustion of myogenic cells
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2002)
Duchenne muscular dystrophy: quality of life among 95 patients evaluated using the Life Satisfaction Index for Adolescents
(Academia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEURO, 2011)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of life (QoL) of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) in different stages of the disease, by means of the Life Satisfaction Index for Adolescents (LSI-A). ...
Duchenne muscular dystrophy: alpha-dystroglycan immunoexpression in skeletal muscle and cognitive performance
(Academia Brasileira de Neurologia - ABNEURO, 2005-12-01)
The Duchenne muscular systrophy (DMD) is a muscular dystrophy with cognitive impairment present in 20-30% of the cases. In the present study, in order to study the relationship between the alpha-dystroglycan (alpha-DG) ...
