Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is a genetic neuromuscular disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness with highly variable clinical progression. This longitudinal study investigates motor function outcomes in a cohort of BMD patients over an extended follow - up period. Using standardized motor assessment tools, we evaluated changes in ambulation, lower limb strength and functional mobility. Our findings aim to better characterize the natural history of motor decline in BMD and identify potential predictors of disease progression, providing valuable insights for patient management and future clinical trials.

Abstract

Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is a genetic neuromuscular disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness with highly variable clinical progression. This longitudinal study investigates motor function outcomes in a cohort of BMD patients over an extended follow - up period. Using standardized motor assessment tools, we evaluated changes in ambulation, lower limb strength and functional mobility. Our findings aim to better characterize the natural history of motor decline in BMD and identify potential predictors of disease progression, providing valuable insights for patient management and future clinical trials.
