Their physical characteristics and motor function were evaluated approximately 3\u00a0mo before, immediately before, and approximately 3\u00a0mo after the travel restrictions were decreed. Statistical comparisons were performed of the changes in motor function before and after the travel restrictions.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The change in range of motion (ROM) of ankle dorsiflexion was significantly decreased after the travel restrictions.

A more sedentary lifestyle and lack of regular physical therapy services most likely contributed to this reduction. The use of remote rehabilitation tools with the involvement of physiotherapists may help mitigate such changes and prevent more severe physical decline.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.27348","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,9]],"date-time":"2021-06-09T03:37:12Z","timestamp":1623209832000},"page":"357-361","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Changes in motor function in <scp>D<\/scp>uchenne muscular dystrophy patients after travel restrictions due to <scp>COVID\u201019<\/scp>"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"64","author":[{"given":"Hitomi","family":"Nishizawa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Medicine Shinshu University  Matsumoto Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Akinori","family":"Nakamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology National Hospital Organization Matsumoto Medical Center  Matsumoto Japan"},{"name":"Third Department of Internal Medicine, School of Medicine Shinshu University  Matsumoto Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.26902"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/323646a0"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","first-page":"319","article-title":"Rehabilitation management of muscular dystrophy and related disorders.
