Description
Summary:<p>Neuromuscular diseases refer to a group of diseases mainly involving peripheral nerve, neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and muscle. Except for the traditional clinical diagnosis, such as serological tests, neuroelectrophysiological study and pathological diagnosis, multilevel detection technologies, including clinical, neuroimaging study, cell and molecular biology, are widely used in the diagnosis of neuromuscular diseases. It is necessary to realize the standardization and systematization of the management of clinical and biological resources in the study of neuromuscular diseases. This paper reviews the establishment, management and application of clinical biobanks, so as to promote the research of neuromuscular diseases.</p><p> </p><p><strong>DOI: </strong>10.3969/j.issn.1672-6731.2016.10.003</p>
