Muscle weakness but also contractures contribute to the progressive gait pathology in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy: a simulation study

Abstract Background Muscle weakness and contractures cause gait deficits in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) but their relative contributions are poorly understood and hence it is unclear whether contractures should be treated. Therefore, we aimed to differentiate the effect of muscle...
