Midthigh muscle and subcutaneous tissue thickness were measured using a real-time linear array ultrasound scanner in 50 patients attending our Muscle Clinic; 28 had muscular dystrophy and 21 spinal muscular atrophy. In muscular dystrophy the muscle thickness was found to be normal or increased, wher
Serum creatine kinase (CK) and myoglobin (Mb) levels were measured in patients with different neuromuscular diseases, carriers of X-linked Duchenne-type muscular dystrophy and normal volunteers. The highest levels were found in Duchenne dystrophy and both values decreased in parallel with age. In pa
The expression of thrombomodulin (TM) and caveolin-3 on biopsied muscle fibers from 17 patients with various neuromuscular diseases was studied immunocytochemically. We also compared the expression of TM and caveolin-3 with that of desmin, which is a marker for muscle fiber regeneration. Most TM-pos
