The report by Dillingham et al. 1 questions the general electromyographic (EMG) wisdom that fibrillation potentials develop and resolve earliest in proximal muscles in a damaged root distribution. The data presented do not allow the authors to make such a judgment. Apparently, patients were selected

Motor unit (MU) number and size estimates were obtained from the human flexor digiti minimi muscle using histological methods. Ten adult fresh cadavers (33-74 years old) were used. The number of MUs was 130 ± 15 and the MU size was 108 ± 10. These values are similar to those reported for other hypot

Serial motor unit number estimates have shed important light on the extent and rates of motoneuron losses in aging and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. However, the estimates alone provide few clues to the health and functional status of surviving motor units. A reliable means for assessing the functi
