Extraocular muscle weakness is the most common presenting sign of myasthenia gravis (MG). More than half of patients presenting with symptoms isolated to these muscles (OMG) develop generalized myasthenia gravis (GMG) over the course of their illness. No clinical, laboratory, or electrophysiological
We constructed an animal model of stimulated single-fiber electromyography (SFEMG) by testing Wistar rats under anesthesia. Stimuli of 1 Hz were applied to the sciatic nerve through an insulated monopolar needle electrode. Single-fiber action potentials were acquired from the gastrocnemius muscle. J
Single-fiber electromyography (SFEMG) is useful in the evaluation of disorders of neuromuscular transmission and the assessment of motor unit morphology. Standard EMG techniques are used routinely in the evaluation of laryngeal dysfunction, but the feasibility of laryngeal SFEMG has not been establi
