Motor Unit Territories in Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy Patients
Özet
In this study, the scanning EMG technique was implemented to investigate electrophysiological cross-sections of the motor unit (MU) territories in healthy volunteers and in subjects with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy and spinal muscular atrophy. Measurements were taken intramuscularly by means of two concentric needle electrodes from biceps brachialis muscles. 3-D maps of the MU territories were plotted for each MU to determine the lengths of MU cross-section and the maximum amplitudes of each MU. There was evidence of a preponderance of large MUs in patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy.
