Multi-MUP EMG analysis--a two year experience in daily clinical work.
TL;DR: A new quantitative motor unit potential (MUP) analysis method, called multi-MUP analysis, is described, which is a type of decomposition analysis of the EMG signal and can be used in daily routine EMG analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motor unit number index (MUNIX): principle, method, and findings in healthy subjects and in patients with motor neuron disease†
TL;DR: MUNIX would be useful to study MU loss in degenerative diseases of motor neurons, indicating MU loss compensated by reinnervation in ALS patients with minimal change in CMAP amplitude.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterizing EMG data using machine-learning tools
TL;DR: A critical review of some of the classification methodologies used in EMG characterization, and presents the state-of-the-art accomplishments in this field, emphasizing neuromuscular pathology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motor unit number estimation, isometric strength, and electromyographic measures in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
TL;DR: It is concluded that collateral reinnervation prevents isometric strength and EMG measures from accurately reflecting lower motor neuron death in ALS, and MUNE measurements are better suited to provide insight into the true natural history of the disease process and may be clinically useful to follow progression and response in drug trials.

Electrophysiological estimation of the number of motor units within a human muscle.
TL;DR: An electrophysiological method is described for estimating the numbers of motor units in the extensor digitorum brevis muscle in man and the results obtained are compared with counts of axons in the nerve to the muscle.

Macro EMG in healthy subjects of different ages.
Erik Stålberg,P R Fawcett +1 more
TL;DR: The findings of the recently developed technique of Macro EMG in healthy subjects of different ages suggest an increase in size of the Macro motor unit potential was found with age, particularly after the age of 60 years.

Single fibre electromyography
TL;DR: With the use of this greatly refined technique the knowledge of the electrical behaviour of individual muscle fibres, of the motor end-plate, and of the intramuscular nerve tree, has been and is being greatly increased.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of electrical activity in healthy and dystrophic muscle in man.
TL;DR: A method has been developed which involves the analysis of voluntary activity recorded with a concentric needle electrode at standard tensions and photographic records are measured by a counting device in order to obtain the number of potential changes per second present in the trace and the mean amplitude of these potentials.
