The evolution of strength, serum creatine kinase (CK), and Functional Index-2 (FI2) scores in a dermatomyositis patient with high baseline muscle strength. CK levels and FI2 evolved in an inverse pattern, with manual muscle testing (MMT) remaining at a “ceiling” score of 10. This patient complained of worsened muscle weakness and rash at month 7.
