Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy (CDM)
Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy (CDM)/Myotonic dystrophy is characterized by progressive multisystem genetic impairment in relaxation of muscles after voluntary contraction due to repetitive depolarization of the muscle membrane disorders muscle wasting and weakness. People with this disorder often have prolonged muscle Read More …
