| Résumé : |
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) are rare genetic diseases which affect skeletal and cardiac muscle. They primarily occur in males but can also occasionally affect females. DMD manifests as progressive muscle weakness which begins during childhood, while BMD manifests as less severe muscle weakness which appears during childhood or adolescence, or even later in life.
This document, published to coincide with the AFM-Téléthon General Meeting 2023, presents DMD and BMD research news from the past year (treatments, a selection of ongoing studies and clinical trials, scientific and medical publications, etc.) > Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) > Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) |
