The Congenital Muscular Dystrophy International Registry (CMDIR) was created to identify the global CMD population for the purpose of raising awareness, standards of care, clinical trials and in the future a treatment or cure.   

Simply put, we will not be successful in finding a treatment or cure unless we know who the affected individuals are, what the diagnosis is and how the disease is affecting the individual.

The registry includes demographic, disease specific and diagnostic questions.  The CMDIR has online help and genetic counselors you can access if you have questions.  If you do not yet have genetic confirmation of disease, CMDIR counselors will help you find a lab to determine the genetic mutation (if known).  

CMD Subtypes included in the CMDIR:

  • Ullrich CMD
  • Merosin deficient (MDC1A)
  • CMD, undiagnosed (including merosin positive)
  • Dystroglycanopathy (WWS, MEB, Fukuyama)
  • Integrin alpha 7 deficiency
  • Integrin alpha 9 deficiency
  • Laminopathy (Lamin A/C)
  • SEPN 1 related myopathies: SEPN1 (selenoprotein deficiency) 

LGMD subtypes included in CMDIR:

  • Bethlem myopathy
  • Dystroglycanopathies (LGMD2K, LGMD2I, LGMD2L, LGMD2N)
