Gender difference in limb-girdle muscular dystrophy: a muscle fiber morphometric study in 101 patients

12 Mar 2014

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Limb girdle muscular dystrophies (LGMD), a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of neuromuscular disorders, may show gender differences in the disease severity. We aimed to measure the extent of muscle fiber atrophy and evaluate possible gender differences at fiber level. METHODS: We conducted a thorough morphometric analysis of muscle fiber size and fiber area in 101 muscles from patients with...
