Muscle involvement in women carrying pathogenic <i>DMD</i> gene variants: A 6.5-year follow-up study

The progression of muscle involvement in women carrying pathogenic <i>DMD</i> gene variants is generally slow. However, those with severe baseline abnormalities on MRI-often associated with a lower age of symptom onset-experience a more rapid progression of muscle fat fraction, suggesting that baseline MRI findings could help predict future disease progression in this population.
