Researchers hunt for muscle clues in rare dystrophy
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis pilot study looks at biomarkers in the blood of people with fragile sarcolemmal muscular dystrophy, a condition that makes muscle membranes weak. Researchers will collect blood samples at rest and after exercise during four 5-day hospital stays. The goal is to better underst…

Can MRI scans reveal the hidden pattern of muscle damage in a rare muscular dystrophy?
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study aims to describe the pattern of muscle involvement in people with limb girdle muscular dystrophy caused by mutations in the anoctamin 5 gene. Researchers will collect and analyze MRI scans from 200 participants to see which muscles are affected and how much fat replace…
