title: Duchenne muscular dystrophy and poliomyelitis. A study of dystrophic-denervated muscle.
abstract: A systematic study of dystrophy-denervation in human muscle showed minimal morphometabolic differences between dystrophic and dystrophic-denervated muscle. The only certain conclusion is that denervation influences the rhythm of evolution of the dystrophy without impressing any of the few characteristics considered at present as peculiar to denervation.
