The term continuous motor unit activity (CMUA) may be used to refer to the involuntary, sustained activity of motor units caused by hyperactivity of peripheral motor nerves. CMUA has been reported in association with acquired neuropathies such as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy. Th

The purpose of this study was to investigate activitydependent excitability changes in polyneuropathy and their correlation with symptomatology. First, we recorded sensory nerve action potentials (SNAPs) with an intraneural microelectrode during impulse trains in 11 patients with chronic inflammator
Sensory complaints in the area of the mandible and mouth often escape notice or remain undiagnosed. Using electromyographic recording of the trigeminal reflexes and motor responses, we sought trigeminal dysfunction in 50 patients with peripheral neuropathy, and tried to gain pathophysiological infor
A 42-year-old man was diagnosed with large cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma 3 years after autologous bone marrow transplantation for Hodgkin's disease. The day before beginning systemic chemotherapy, the patient began to have symptoms of a sensorimotor neuropathy characterized by proximal and distal weak
## Abstract EpsteinβBarr virus (EBV)βassociated lymphoproliferative disease occurs almost exclusively in immunocompromised states. This type of malignancy nevertheless developed in a woman without overt immunocompromise. She presented with rapidly progressive lower extremity weakness that was consi
