Accelerometry Measurements for DMD and Healthy Control Groups

A 9.5 KB Excel dataset by Nicholas Joy, last updated June 2026, compares accelerometry-derived measurements. The data includes healthy controls, ambulatory, and non-ambulatory individuals with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).

Use Cases

• Compare physical activity levels between healthy controls and DMD patients based on accelerometry measurements.
• Analyze differences in mobility metrics between ambulatory and non-ambulatory DMD individuals.
• Develop models for classifying disease progression stages using accelerometry-derived features.
• Benchmark accelerometry data processing methods for neuromuscular disease cohorts.

Strengths

• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.
• File size is 9.5 KB, indicating a focused and manageable dataset.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
