Estimating prevalence for limb-girdle muscular dystrophy based on public sequencing databases

2018-12-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose</h4> Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophies (LGMD) are a genetically heterogeneous category of autosomal inherited muscle diseases. Many genes causing LGMD have been identified, and clinical trials are beginning for treatment of some genetic subtypes. However, even with the gene-level mechanisms known, it is still difficult to get a reliable and generalizable prevalence estimation for each subtype due to th...
