Rasch analysis of the 32-item motor function measure in ambulant patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Meihuan Huang et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the 32-item Motor Function Measure in ambulatory patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy using Rasch measurement methods. The results showed that the Motor Function Measure domain D1 was a reliable and valid measure in ambulatory patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, while domains D2 and D3 had limitations. This study highlights the importance of accurate measurement in assessing motor function in this patient group.

Implementation of Motor Function Measure score percentile curves - Predicting motor function loss in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Patricia Hafner et al.

Summary: The study aimed to generate Motor Function Measure percentile curves for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy patients, allowing for better evaluation of individual patients' status and disease progression. The results showed a decline in mean scores with age, and patients treated with glucocorticoids had higher mean values. The online tool with percentile curves provides clinical utility for interpreting individual standing and disease progression.
