Journal ArticleDOI
The motor unit in muscular dystrophy, a single fibre EMG and scanning EMG study.
Per Hilton-Brown,Erik Stålberg +1 more
TL;DR: Dystrophic muscle shows increase in fibre density, abnormally low jitter in some recordings and more often increased jitter and the findings are compatible with a remodeling of the motor unit due to fibre loss and a reparative process with fibre regeneration and reinnervation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Myasthenia in Rabbits: Biochemical, Immunological, Electrophysiological, and Morphological Aspects
Edith Heilbronn,Christer Mattsson,Lars-Eric Thornell,Michael Sjöström,Erik Stålberg,Per Hilton-Brown,Dan Elmqvist +6 more
TL;DR: New neurophysiological data, including single-fiber EMG, measurement of miniature end- plate potentials and end-plate potentials as well as morphological data have been obtained and antibody titers have been correlated with the decrement in the amplitude of the compound muscle potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of occupational exposure to organophosphorus insecticides on neuromuscular function
Erik Stålberg,Per Hilton-Brown,Birgitta Kolmodin-Hedman,Bo Holmstedt,Klas-Bertil Augustinsson +4 more
TL;DR: In none of the workers with a decreased plasma cholinesterase activity after work could any related acute neuromuscular disturbance be detected when the men were tested with repetitive nerve stimulation and with single fiber electromyography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Signs of reinnervation in myasthenia gravis.
TL;DR: The study indicates a slight reorganization of the motor unit in untreated patients with myasthenia gravis and more pronounced changes in patients treated with cholinesterase inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Succinylcholine on Single Motor End‐plates in Man
TL;DR: The results showed that the effect of succinylcholine was mainly localized in the the motor end‐plate, and the jitter, a measure of the variability in the neuromuscular delay, could usually be accurately measured only during the recovery phase after the maximal effect of acetylcholine.
