Effects of Prednisone on a Patient with Dysferlinopathy Assessed by Maximal Voluntary Isometric Contraction: Alternate-Day Low-Dose Administration for a 17-Year Period
Abstract
Glucocorticoids are candidates for the pharmacological treatment of dysferlinopathy. Deflazacort, however, showed a worse effect on muscle strength than placebo. Alternate-day low-dose prednisone may have beneficial effects with fewer adverse effects. The outcomes for a female patient with dysferlinopathy (limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B) were assessed by maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) using a newly devised chair and arm...
