We studied 78 patients with motor neuron disease (MND) using concentric needle electromyography. Analysis on weak and maximal effort was performed using our own, fully automated, computer method, EMG-LAB. In addition to the conventional parameters of single motor unit action potentials (MUAPs) and i
## Abstract Mutation of the spastin gene is the single most common cause of pure hereditary spastic paraparesis. In patients with an unexplained sporadic upper motor neuron (UMN) syndrome, clinical distinction between primary lateral sclerosis and sporadic hereditary spastic paraparesis may be prob
Rapid elbow flexion movements were studied in patients with an upper motor neuron syndrome following a stroke. The velocity of movements was slower than normal. The initial bursts of electromyographic (EMG) activity in both the agonist and antagonist muscles were prolonged. As in normal subjects, th
