Introduction Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked fatal neuromuscular disease characterised by neuromuscular dysfunction secondary to dystrophin deficiency (Ervasti, 2007; Hoffman et al., 1987). Substantial diaphragm muscle weakness is a feature of the disease (Burns et al., 2018; Burns, Ali et al., 2017; Burns, Drummond et al., 2019; Burns, Murphy et al., 2019; Burns, Roy et al., 2017).
