Proposed Project The Muscular Dystrophy Surveillance, Tracking, and Research Network (MD STARnet) Muscular Dystrophy Questionnaire—New— National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities (NCBDDD), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Since its establishment in 2002, the MD STARnet has been a populationbased surveillance system that aims to identify and collect clinical data on individuals with muscular dystrophy (MD) in select surveillance areas. MD STARnet identifies and collects data on cases at sources, including healthcare facilities where patients with MD E:\FR\FM\23SEN1.SGM 23SEN1 58096 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 184 / Friday, September 23, 2022 / Notices receive care and administrative datasets such as vital records and hospital discharge data. While MDs are rare genetic diseases with an estimated prevalence of 16.1/100,000, they have a high impact on affected individuals, their families, and society. MDs can be classified into nine major groups: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), myotonic dystrophy (DM), facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD), congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD), Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD), and distal MD. A recent MD STARnet study has estimated the combined prevalence for DMD and BMD to be 1.92–2.48/10,000 generated from the study will provide a better understanding of: (1) the occurrence, testing, treatment and severity of COVID–19 in relation to MD; (2) vaccination status and reasons for not receiving COVID–19 and flu vaccinations; (3) the frequency, intensity, and management of pain and fatigue; and (4) the effect of having MD on pregnancy and fertility on adults living with MD. Ultimately, this information can be used to develop interventions that improve the lives of people with MD and their families. CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 974 annual burden hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to participate. males age 5–9 years old. MD STARnet aims to improve understanding of MDs and ultimately the quality of life of people and their families living with MD. Individuals with MDs frequently report pain and fatigue, but studies have largely been conducted in clinic-based populations and included the three most common MDs. Population-based studies are needed to describe the frequency and management of pain and fatigue and their impact on the lives of individuals with various types of MD. The purpose of the proposed study is to describe the epidemiology of COVID– 19 and flu and the experience with pain, fatigue, pregnancy, and infertility for adults living with MD who are identified through MD STARnet.
