Classification criteria for myositis have low specificity, causing misdiagnosis with hereditary myopathies due to overlapping clinical features and late-onset presentations.
Differentiating inflammatory from hereditary myopathies remains challenging due to overlapping clinical presentations and low specificity of current classification criteria.

The diagnostic challenge of differentiating between inflammatory and hereditary myopathies is reflected by the relatively low specificity of the classification criteria in this study. Relevant factors leading to misdiagnosis include similarities in clinical presentation and diagnostic findings, as well as late-onset disease manifestations, e.g., in LGMD, DM1, DM2.
