Muscle function and age are associated with loss of bone mineral density in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Abstract

Muscle function and age contribute to BD loss in DMD. We propose that a cut-off of at least 6 points for the Vignos scale and at least 10.5 years of age predict a Z-score of less than or equal to -2.0. Muscle Nerve 59:417-421, 2019.
