Molecular and Genetic Studies of Congenital Myopathies
In the Congenital Myopathy Research Program at Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, the researchers are studying the congenital myopathies (neuromuscular diseases present from birth), including central core disease, centronuclear/myotubular myopathy, congenital fiber type disproportion, multiminicore disease, nemaline myopathy, rigid spine muscular dystrophy, SELENON (SEPN1), RYR1 myopathy, ADSS1 (ADSSL) …
Myotonic Dystrophy Family Registry
The Myotonic Dystrophy Family Registry (MDFR) is an online, patient-entered database that collects information on myotonic dystrophy (DM) to aid researchers in developing new, effective treatments and help identify participants for research studies and clinical trials.
FLOWER: Following Longitudinal Outcomes With Epidemiology for Rare Diseases
FLOWER is a completely virtual, nationwide, real-world observational study to collect, annotate, standardize, and report clinical data for rare diseases. Patients participate in the study by electronic consent (eConsent) and sign a medical records release to permit data collection. Medical records are accessed from institutions directly via eFax or paper …
Characterization of Patients With Cardiomyopathy to Identify Critical Patients Candidates for Cardiac Transplantation
The study aims to identify new diagnostic and prognostic markers for CMP that can help predict disease progression. In particular, the study will focus on microRNAs (miRNAs) and spatial transcriptomics, which are emerging techniques that may provide insights into the underlying disease mechanisms. By understanding these markers, the investigators hope …
Rare Disease Patient Registry & Natural History Study - Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures …
Biomarker Development for Muscular Dystrophies
Current methods of measuring the response to new treatments for muscular dystrophies involve the examination of small pieces of muscle tissue called biopsies. The investigators are interested in finding less invasive methods that reduce the need for muscle biopsies. The purpose of this research is to learn about the possibility …
Walking ANalysis Interest in Persons wiTh facioscapulohumEral Muscular Dystrophies
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSH) is one of the most common genetic myopathies in adults. It is characterised by progressive asymmetric muscular atrophy affecting the skeletal muscles of the face, upper limbs and then lower limbs, causing problems with walking, which is one of the most frequent complaints of these patients. …
Fear of Falling in Muscular Dystrophy
Primary objectives WP1: Evaluate the prevalence of FOF in the study population and how this varies over time. Evaluate whether there are relationships between the variables investigated (clinical, motor, cognitive, psychological) and the presence of FOF. WP2: To evaluate, among those who presented disabling FOF, the effects of two different …
phenotypeS in Non Ambulant Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
The aims of the study are to prospectively collect information on several aspects of function in non-ambulant DMD patients by using a structured battery of tests including motor, respiratory and cardiac function
Extracellular RNA Biomarkers of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Current methods of measuring the response to new treatments for muscular dystrophies involve the examination of small pieces of muscle tissue called biopsies. The investigators are interested in finding less invasive methods that reduce the need for muscle biopsies. The purpose of this research is to learn about the possibility …
