Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies arise from pathogenic variants in the DMD gene at Xp21.2. Their spectrum is uncharacterised in the Central-Eastern Black Sea region of Türkiye. METHODS: We reviewed all consecutive individuals tested for DMD variants at our centre from January 2022 to February 2026. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification was available in 45 of 47 and whole-gene...
