The sequence of pathophysiological changes in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) at the single motor unit (MU) level is not well understood. Using a recently described technique, a comprehensive range of physiological properties in two thenar MUs in ALS were intensively studied. In the first MU, de
The reliability of motor unit number estimation (MUNE) for assessment of the long-term course of ALS is dependent on the reproducibility of the technique. We report our results with the statistical method of MUNE on the ulnar nerve/hypothenar muscle in 16 ALS patients who were studied on 52 occasion
