| ABSTRACT |
|
Background : Changes in firing pattern and in the recruitment order of single motor unit(MU) have been claimed tobe characteristic of central motor lesions, and a reduced firing rate was found in upper motor neuron lesions. But thesefindings have been rarely studied before in Korea, so we studied initial MU recruitment pattern in stroke patients withhemiparesis.Methods : We studied six patients(3 men and 3 women) whose mean age was 60.6 |
