Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Although it is known that the functions of pulmonary and upper limb is affected in late stage of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) negatively, the investigators do not have clear information about its early stage. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in pulmonary and upper limb functions between children with DMD in early stage and healthy peers.
