All the patients were able to perform the sniff and the cough maneuver. Sniff transdiaphragmatic pressure decreased with age in Duchenne patients, whereas it increased with age in patients with spinal amyotrophy and congenital myopathy. Magnetic stimulation of the phrenic nerves was obtained in all patients. Twenty-five (61%) patients were able to perform forced vital capacity. In the three groups of patients, a positive correlation was observed between volitional, assessed by the sniff maneuver, and nonvolitional respiratory muscle tests, assessed by the magnetic stimulation of the phrenic nerves. Also, forced vital capacity correlated with sniff transdiaphragmatic pressure and cough gastric pressure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Volitional respiratory muscle tests correlated with nonvolitional tests and with forced vital capacity.
