Muscle weakness but also contractures contribute to the progressive gait pathology in children with DMD: a simulation study

2025-01-08

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Muscle weakness and contractures cause gait deficits in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) but their relative contributions are poorly understood and hence it is unclear whether contractures should be treated. Therefore, we aimed to differentiate the effect of muscle weakness in isolation from weakness and contractures combined on the gait patterns. Methods We...
