Summary
This study uses three wearable devices—a continuous glucose monitor, a heart monitor, and an activity tracker—to see if high blood sugar is linked to heart problems in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Researchers will compare 80 participants with and without DMD. The goal is to understand risk factors for heart failure, the leading cause of death in DMD, without requiring frequent clinic visits.
