Tiny study probes muscle oxygen in rare nerve and muscle diseases
NCT ID NCT02789059
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study looked at how muscle oxygen levels change during exercise in people with various neuromuscular diseases compared to healthy volunteers. Seventeen participants did a knee-extension exercise while a device measured muscle oxygen. The goal was to understand differences in muscle oxygen use, especially in diseases linked to a missing protein called dystrophin. Some participants also had a muscle biopsy to study mitochondria, the cell's energy factories.
