The impaired muscular function is the result of anomalies in muscle proteins or their regulation. Muscle weakness, a motor development delay, and probable breathing problems are typical symptoms. Physical therapy, breathing support where needed, and genetic testing are frequently used in the diagnosis and management of diseases.
