Objective:The relationship between functional dependence and quality of life (QOL) in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients and burden and QOL in caregivers is not clear. This study investigated possible relationships between functional dependence/QOL of DMD patients and QOL/burden of caregivers. Method: This study included 35 boys (6-17 years) and respective caregivers (above 21 years). Caregivers answered to World Health Organization Quality of Life and Zarit Burden Interview questionnaires. Patients were assessed with the Motor Function Measure and the Autoquestionnaire Qualité de vie Enfant Imagé. Spearman correlations and linear regressions were run to investigate relationships between the variables. Results: The occurrence of lower QOL and higher burden among the caregivers of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy was evidenced. The functional dependence of patients was not considered a determinant factor. Higher caregivers' burden was related to lower caregivers' QOL and to higher patients' ages.Keywords: Duchenne muscular dystrophy, behavior, quality of life, motor activity. RESUMOObjetivo: A relação entre qualidade de vida e função motora de pacientes com distrofia muscular de Duchenne (DMD) e sobrecarga e qualidade de vida (QV) dos cuidadores não está clara na literatura. Esse estudo investigou possíveis relações entre dependência funcional/ QV de pacientes e sobrecarga/QV dos cuidadores em 35 meninos (6-17 anos) com DMD e respectivos cuidadores (acima de 21 anos). Método: Cada cuidador respondeu ao questionário de QV da Organização Mundial de Saúde e de sobrecarga de Zarit e o paciente foi avaliado com a medida de função motora e o Autoquestionnaire Qualité de vie Enfant Imagé. Correlações de Spearman e regressões lineares investigaram possíveis relações entre as variáveis. Resultados: A ocorrência de menor QV e maior sobrecarga entre cuidadores foi evidenciada, enquanto a dependência funcional dos pacientes não foi considerada fator

“…Patients were also submitted to the motor function measure scale, Portuguese version (MFM-P) 9 and ancillary exams including creatinekinase, electroneuromyography and routine laboratory tests. MFM-P scale includes 32 items, rated on a 4-point scale (0 to 3; 3 = completes the exercise in the standard normal pattern) and 3 dimensions (D1 = standing position and transfers; D2 = axial and proximal function; D3 = distal function).…”

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the frequency of ophthalmologic abnormalities in a cohort of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) patients and to correlate them with motor function. We reviewed the pathophysiology of cataract and low intraocular pressure (IOP). Method Patients were included after clinical and laboratory diagnosis and after signed informed consent. They were evaluated by Motor Function Measure scale, Portuguese version (MFM-P) and ophthalmic protocol. Results We evaluated 42 patients aged 17 to 64 years (mean 40.7 ± 12.5), 22 of which were men. IOP (n = 41) was reduced in all but one. We found cataract or positivity for surgery in 38 (90.48%) and ptosis in 23 (54.76%). These signs but not IOP were significantly correlated with severity of motor dysfunction. Abnormalities in ocular motility and stereopsis were observed. Conclusion Cataract and ptosis are frequent in DM1 and associated to motor dysfunction. Reduced IOP is also common, but appears not to be related with motor impairment.

“…The inclusion criteria were: confirmed diagnosis of DMD, to be over six years of age, independent community ambulation, similar functional score (up to two points of difference) in Dimension 1 (D1) of the Motor Function Measure (MFM) 16 and the signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF) by the guardian.…”

| This case study aimed to verify the model of Rose et al. 1 as a feasible to assess energy expenditure in gait of children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Three DMD patients aged 6, 7 and 8 years old participated of this study. It was obtained weight, height, leg length measurement (LLM), resting and gait heart rate (HR) held on as 55-meter oval circuit performed during a two-minute test at each speed. Energy expenditure was calculated using the HR. It was performed a descriptive analysis (average) and these were compared, individually, to normative data. The average gait speed of these three patients was similar to the normative data for slow speed and lower considering comfortable and fast speed. The energy expenditure to slow speed of the patients 2 and 3 was similar to the normality, and lowest for patient 1; at comfortable speed, the energy expenditure obtained for all patients was similar; at fast speed, the patients 1 and 2 presented similar to normal values, but the patient 3 presented higher energy expenditure. It was concluded that the energy expenditure evaluation using HR was easily executed in the clinical practice and it can help therapeutic choices. For patient 3, an aerobic training could be indicated and for the others, they could keep the routine assessments.
