We measured the maximal and minimal motor nerve conduction velocities of the ulnar nerve in 17 patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), 27 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and 40 age-matched control subjects. Crude values of the maximal and minimal motor nerve conduction veloci
Fifty-nine percent of 49 patients with motor neuron disease and 25% of 91 control subjects had IgM antibodies to ganglioside GM1 but usually not to GDlb at titers less than 1:80. This suggests that antibodies to GM1 may be part of the normal human antibody repertoire. However, given the higher incid
