Duchenne muscular dystrophy is primarily a disease of progressive muscle degeneration affecting the whole body. It is important to preserve the patients' walking ability as long as possible. Inconclusive information on Duchenne muscular dystrophy gait pattern is available for the lower body and missing for the upper body. This study aimed to objectively investigate upper body gait deviations in a group of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy compared to typically developing peers.

Clinical Biomechanics

《临床生物力学》是一本国际多学科的生物力学期刊，重点关注该领域新知识的医学和临床应用。生物力学科学有助于解释细胞、组织、器官和身体系统疾病的原因，并支持临床医生进行诊断，治疗方法和技术的预后和评价。 CLINICAL BIOMECHANICS 旨在通过发表尖端的生物力学研究来加强实验室和临床之间的联系，这些研究有助于解释损伤和疾病的原因，并为改善临床管理提供证据。采用严格的同行评审系统，每一次尝试都是致力于及时处理和发表高质量论文。临床生物力学探索身体系统、器官、组织和细胞生物力学的各个方面，重点是基础科学方面的医学和临床应用。因此，基础科学的作用在医学或临床环境中得到认可。该杂志的读者群密切反映了其多学科的内容，是科学家、工程师和临床医生的平衡。内容以研究论文、简要报告、评论论文和信函的形式出现，而特别感兴趣的问题和增刊则发表于涵盖的学科包括各种规模的生物力学和机械生物学、生物工程以及组织工程和生物材料在临床应用中的应用、生物物理学以及医疗机器人、人体工程学、物理和职业治疗和康复的生物力学方面。

Clinical Biomechanics is an international multidisciplinary journal focusing on the medical and clinical applications of new knowledge in the field of biomechanics. The science of biomechanics helps explain the causes of diseases affecting cells, tissues, organs, and body systems, and supports clinicians in diagnosis, treatment methods, and the prognosis and evaluation of techniques. Clinical Biomechanics aims to strengthen the connection between laboratory and clinical practice by publishing cutting-edge biomechanics research that elucidates the causes of injuries and diseases and provides evidence for improving clinical management. The journal employs a rigorous peer-review system, committed to the timely processing and publication of high-quality papers. Clinical Biomechanics explores various aspects of the biomechanics of body systems, organs, tissues, and cells, emphasizing the role of basic science in medical and clinical settings. The readership closely reflects its multidisciplinary content, comprising scientists, engineers, and clinicians. Content is presented in the form of research articles, brief reports, review papers, and letters, with special issues and supplements addressing topics in biomechanics, mechanobiology, bioengineering, clinical applications of tissue engineering and biomaterials, biophysics, medical robotics, ergonomics, and the biomechanics of physical and occupational therapy and rehabilitation.
