Pilot Study Of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy In New Born Is Successful

A team of researchers at the Ohio State University in Columbus, have tested all newborns boys for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and the result is found feasible and effective. Creatine kinase testing of newborn boys, with follow-up DNA analysis in those with positive results, has identified two cases of DMD among nearly 5,000 births. In both cases, the infants’ creatine kinase levels were higher than 2,400 U/L.
