We show that when the disease is transmitted by a male, the mean intergenerational variation is minimal (mean = 56 CTG, SD = 177 CTG). However, this does not occur in the affected mothers, where the mean intergenerational expansion is very high (mean = 948 CTG, SD = 815 CTG) and the difference is statistically significant (<jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\u2010Student <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.0001).<\/jats:p><jats:p>Our data have important implications for the genetic counselling of DM1 families.
