title: Improvement of some abnormal motor functions by electrical stimulation.
abstract: Clinical results obtained from electrical stimulation of muscle, nerve, spinal cord, cerebellum, and cerebrum are surveyed. Some more data are presented from our own experience with stimulating denervated muscle and cerebellum. Mechanisms which might be responsible for its clinical effects on the muscle, synapse, or nervous system are discussed.
