prednisolone has been researched along with Muscle Weakness in 79 studies
Prednisolone: A glucocorticoid with the general properties of the corticosteroids. It is the drug of choice for all conditions in which routine systemic corticosteroid therapy is indicated, except adrenal deficiency states.
prednisolone : A glucocorticoid that is prednisone in which the oxo group at position 11 has been reduced to the corresponding beta-hydroxy group. It is a drug metabolite of prednisone.
Muscle Weakness: A vague complaint of debility, fatigue, or exhaustion attributable to weakness of various muscles. The weakness can be characterized as subacute or chronic, often progressive, and is a manifestation of many muscle and neuromuscular diseases. (From Wyngaarden et al., Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p2251)

Bayley III Gross Motor Scaled Score measures motor development. This is normed for typically developing children and follow a bell shaped curve. The scale has mean of 10 +/-3 for children at all ages and is bell shaped. Therefore the two standard deviation range is 16 to 4 with higher values indicated better performance. Lower values have been shown to be common in boys with DMD and it this study the baseline average score was 4.2. (NCT02167217)
Timeframe: One year

| Oral Prednisolone | 4.8 |
The determination of whether spironolactone has similar efficacy to glucocorticoids in improving muscle strength in steroid naïve DMD patients. This will be determined by measuring the time to complete a 100 meter timed test (100M). (NCT03777319)
Timeframe: 6 months
| Intervention | sec (Number) |

| Spironolactone | -0.6 |
| Prednisolone | -5.3 |
Secondary outcome measures will be Dynamometry score, which is a summation of maximum voluntary isometric contraction test values for knee flexion, knee extension, elbow flexion, and elbow extension (NCT03777319)
