Muscular dystrophies are inherited disorders sharing similar clinical features and dystrophic
changes on muscle biopsy. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is the most common inherited …

Muscular dystrophies (MD) represent a heterogeneous group of rare genetic diseases that
often lead to significant weakness due to progressive muscle degeneration. In many forms of …
