Brief Summary

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

Inside of studies that report an upper airway function impaired, the upper limb strength has been demonstrated to be determinant in breath, speech and swallow performance. Nevertheless, no previous studies in neuromuscular disease have explored the relation between general disability and upper airway function.

There is a suspicion of upper airway which is associated with physical deterioration, however the extent to which if feeds back has not been explored.
