BACKGROUND: Extensive research on prenatal alcohol exposure has proven the potent teratogenicity of this substance of abuse. Children born to alcoholic mothers are often diagnosed with fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS). Those afflicted with FAS often have muscle weakness, muscle wasting, and atrophy. Thi

IMPORTANT CHANGES IN MUSCLE & NERVE
This first issue of the sixth volume of Muscle β¬9 Nerve marks two important changes for the journal. T h e first is that Muscle β¬9 Nerve now becomes the Official Journal of the American Association of Electromyography and Electrodiagnosis. The journal will publish the Association newsletter, minimonographs, and case reports. These will allow the in-depth review of special areas of electrophysiology. Muscle β¬9 Nerve also will be able to publish the best papers from the Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Association of Electromyography and Electrodiagnosis.
T h e Advisory and Editorial Boards and I view this affiliation with the American Association of Electromyography and Electrodiagnosis as being of great importance to Muscle β¬9 Nerve. In addition to increasing the number of first rate papers dealing with electrophysiology that will be published in Muscle β¬9 Nerve, it will considerably expand the number of subscribers, thereby minimizing the rise in subscription rates necessitated by inflation. This will add to the continuing support which the Muscular Dystrophy Association has given to the journal since its inception in 1978.
