Assessment of Neurodevelopmental Needs in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Duchenne Muscular DystrophyDuchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a genetic disease that causes progressive muscle weakness. There is now substantial evidence that boys with this disease do not demonstrate age-related gains in their cognitive skills. The goals of this study are (i) to use a technology-enabled neurobehavioral assessment called National Institutes of Health Toolbox Cognition Battery (NIHTB-CB) to assess brain development over time; (ii) engage with key-stakeholders to understand how neurodevelopmental problems like attention-deficit hyperactivity, autism spectrum affects individuals (and/or) families, so that we can understand meaningful effects of a potential treatment at an individual level, and (iii) to investigate using brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) changes in brain connectivity.
Genetic and Physical Study of Childhood Nerve and Muscle Disorders
Muscular DystrophiesMuscle Myopathies3 moreBackground: - Some nerve and muscle disorders that start early in life (before age 25), like some forms of muscular dystrophy, can run in families. However, the genetic causes of these disorders are not known. Also, doctors do not fully understand how symptoms of these disorders change over time. Researchers want to learn more about genetic nerve and muscle disorders that start in childhood by studying affected people and their family members, as well as healthy volunteers. Objectives: - To better understand nerve and muscle disorders that start early in life and run in families. Eligibility: Individuals at least 4 weeks old with childhood-onset muscular and nerve disorders, including those who have a later onset of a disorder that typically has childhood onset. Affected and unaffected family members of the individuals with muscular and nerve disorders. Healthy volunteers at least 4 weeks old with no nerve or muscle disorders. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Genetic information will be collected from blood, saliva, cheek swab, or skin samples. Urine samples may also be collected. Healthy volunteers and unaffected family members will have imaging studies of the muscles. These studies will include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound scans. Results will be compared with those from the affected participants. All participants with nerve and muscle disorders will have multiple tests, including the following: Imaging studies of the muscles, including ultrasound and MRI scans. Imaging studies of the bones, such as x-rays and DEXA scans. Heart and lung function tests. Eye exams. Nerve and muscle electrical activity tests and biopsies. Video and photo image collection of affected muscles. Speech, language, and swallowing evaluation. Lumbar puncture to collect spinal fluid for study. Tests of movement, attention, thinking, and coordination. Participants with nerve and muscle disorders will return to the Clinical Center every year. They will repeat the tests and studies at these visits....
Congenital Muscle Disease Study of Patient and Family Reported Medical Information
Congenital Muscular Dystrophy With ITGA7 (Integrin Alpha-7) DeficiencyAlpha-Dystroglycanopathy (Congenital Muscular Dystrophy and Abnormal Glycosylation of Dystroglycan With Severe Epilepsy)51 moreThe Congenital Muscle Disease Patient and Proxy Reported Outcome Study (CMDPROS) is a longitudinal 10 year study to identify and trend care parameters, adverse events in the congenital muscle diseases using the Congenital Muscle Disease International Registry (CMDIR) to acquire necessary data for adverse event calculations (intake survey and medical records curation). To support this study and become a participant, we ask that you register in the CMDIR. You can do this by visiting www.cmdir.org. There is no travel required. The registry includes affected individuals with congenital muscular dystrophy, congenital myopathy, and congenital myasthenic syndrome and registers through the late onset spectrum for these disease groups. The CMDIR was created to identify the global congenital muscle disease population for the purpose of raising awareness, standards of care, clinical trials and in the future a treatment or cure. Simply put, we will not be successful in finding a treatment or cure unless we know who the affected individuals are, what the diagnosis is and how the disease is affecting the individual. Registering in the CMDIR means that you will enter demographic information and complete an intake survey. We would then ask that you provide records regarding the diagnosis and treatment of CMD, including genetic testing, muscle biopsy, pulmonary function testing, sleep studies, clinic visit notes, and hospital discharge summaries. Study hypothesis: To use patient and proxy reported survey answers and medical reports to build a longitudinal care and outcomes database across the congenital muscle diseases. To generate congenital muscle disease subtype specific adverse event rates and correlate with key care parameters.
Global Registry for COL6-related Dystrophies
Bethlem MyopathyUllrich Congenital Muscular Dystrophy 110 moreThe Global Registry for COL6-related dystrophies (www.collagen6.org) is a database for individuals who have been diagnosed with Bethlem Myopathy, Ullrich Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (UCMD) or an intermediate form of these diseases. The registry team is based at the John Walton Muscular Dystrophy Research Centre at Newcastle University, UK and is part of the TREAT-NMD alliance global network of registries. The registry has been developed in partnership with a number of leading neuromuscular researchers and is funded by the Collagen VI Alliance. This patient registry will: Help identify patients for relevant clinical trials as they become available Encourage further research into Collagen 6-related dystrophies Provide researchers with specific patient information to support their research Assist doctors and other health professionals by providing them with up-to-date information on managing Collagen 6- related dystrophies, to help them deliver better standards of care for their patients The investigators welcome the registration of: ✓ All patients, with a diagnosis of a COL6-related dystrophy (Bethlem Myopathy, Ullrich Congenital Muscular Dystrophy or Intermediate form) , which has been confirmed via genetic testing or muscle biopsy.
