Mean DM1-Activ<jats:sup>C<\/jats:sup>total score at baseline was 71.24 (95% confidence interval 67.77\u201374.71) and at the follow-up visit 69.04 (65.54\u201372.54). Approximately 43% of patients had a lower score at the follow-up visit (indicating a decreased ability to perform activities of daily living), 24% a higher score (indicating an increased ability), and 33% the same score at baseline and follow-up. The mean annual change in the DM1-Activ<jats:sup>C<\/jats:sup>total score, estimated at \u2212\u00a02.06 (\u2212\u00a03.54 to \u2212\u00a00.59), was significantly related to patients\u2019 baseline score, but not sex, disease duration, timed test results, or cytosine-thymine-guanine repeat length.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Change over time in ability to perform activities of daily living as recorded through the DM1-Activ<jats:sup>C<\/jats:sup>varies substantially between patients with DM1.
