Scientists at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and the University of Las Vegas Nevada (UNLV) have uncovered a genetic link between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and a rare genetic condition ...

Cellular models used to search for new therapies for myotonic dystrophy type 1 do not usually take into account the diversity of subtypes presented by patients. A study led by researchers from the ...

A rare disorder called myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) causes weakness and muscle loss that gets progressively worse. Patients with DM1 are about 14 times more likely to be diagnosed with autism ...

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 incurs high healthcare costs, driven by age and comorbidities like cardiac and respiratory issues. Early detection and integrated management of multisystemic complications ...
