Steroids also carry potential risks and adverse effects such as weight gain (possibly making weakness worse), growth impairment, and osteopenia (decrease in bone mass), among others. [clevelandclinic.org]

Growth deficiency worsens with advancing age despite adequate weight gain. Hyperopia with intermittent strabismus has been reported. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The additional phenotypic manifestations in this family-proportionate short stature, facial dysmorphism, pulmonary valvular stenosis, thoracic scoliosis, brachydactyly, pectus deformities and genital abnormalities-are reminiscent of phenotypes seen with [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Our study suggests that patients with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy may have increased energy expenditure relative to healthy subjects. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

She later collapsed suddenly and unexpectedly while at home, with witnesses present, and was found cyanotic with pulseless electrical activity by the emergency squad. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Echocardiography revealed a huge right atrium and severe tricuspid regurgitation caused by annular dilatation and destruction of leaflets and chordae by pacemaker leads. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Cardiac involvement (2:1 AV block, valvular (Mitral Regurgitation, Tricuspid Regurgitation) pathology and cardiomyopathy) was observed in all except in-patient 1. Serum CK levels ranged from 1.5 to 36 times the normal value (170 IU/L). [neurologyindia.com]

A 33-year-old man was admitted for general malaise and vomiting. An electrocardiogram showed a complete atrioventricular block and an echocardiogram showed right atrial dilatation and normal wall motion of left ventricle (LV). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Waddling gait, lumbar lordosis, and weakness of the shoulder girdle become apparent during adolescence. Mild pectus excavatum may be present. [whonamedit.com]

Inability to rise to an upright position without turning to the side, waddling gait, and progressive weakness are the characteristic features. Pseudohypertrophy of the calf muscles is due to fibrous tissue and fat infiltration. [icd9data.com]

Sinus arrest with junctional escape beats was noted. He was diagnosed as X-linked recessive EDMD (MIM 310300). A 28-yr-old female showed severe wasting and weakness of humeroperoneal muscles. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Cardiologic evaluation performed at our heart Institute (INCOR) showed significant depression of left ventricle function associated with complex arrhythmia as sinus arrest (episodes with escape junctional rhythm resulting in bradycardias at rates of 35 [scielo.br]

The case of an affected man with first-degree AV block, incomplete right bundle branch block, and left anterior fascicular block is described in detail. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
