Clinical and genetic variation analysis of 97 patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

??Objective??To analyze the clinical and gene mutation characteristics of Duchenne progressive muscular dystrophy ??DMD????summarize the gene mutation hotspots in 97 cases and to explore the correlation between clinical manifestations and genotype. Methods??Totally 97 patients with DMD diagnosed by genetic examination from January 2014 to 2018 were collected and analyzed. The clinical manifestations??serum analyses and gene mutation results were analyzed. Results??The main clinical manifestations of 97 patients??96 boys?? were feeding difficulties?? increased muscle enzyme and limb weakness. Creatine kinase??CK???? lactate dehydrogenase??LDH?? and aspartate aminotransferase??AST?? muscle enzymes were significantly increased. By combining deep-sequencing technologies??the large deletions of DMD gene mutation was in 62 cases??63.92%????there were 11 cases??11.34%?? of large duplication mutation??and 24 cases??24.74%?? of point mutation. All of the mutations could occur in any position in the DMD gene??but there were two hot spots??45 cases were located in the central region gene exon 45??55??72.58% ????12 cases of deletion mutation were located in 5’exon end exon 2??19 area??19.35%??. Conclusion??The main clinical manifestations of the DMD children are feeding difficulty??increased muscle enzyme and limb weakness. The patients with significantly increased muscle enzyme should receive a timely defection of DMD gene.
