DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13171
Abstract: Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is a genetic neuromuscular disease of growing importance caused by in‐frame, partial loss‐of‐function mutations in the dystrophin (DMD) gene. BMD presents with reduced severity compared with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the… read more here.
