Statement I accurately states that gout disease involves rapid muscle spasms caused by elevated levels of Ca2+ ions in the body fluid. This is a characteristic feature of gout.

Statement II, however, is incorrect. Muscular dystrophy is not an autoimmune disorder but a genetic disorder that leads to progressive muscle weakness and degeneration. Hence, Option 3 correctly indicates that Statement I is correct, but Statement II is incorrect.
