Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Duchenne and Becker Muscular Dystrophy (DMD and BMD, respectively), are common forms of inherited muscle disease. Information regarding the epidemiology of these conditions, including genotype, is still sparse. OBJECTIVE: To establish the prevalence and genetic profile of DMD and BMD in Puerto Rico. METHODS: We collected data from medical records in all Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) clinics in...
