title: [The method of axonal stimulation (AS) for jitter evaluation in the diagnosis of neuromuscular transmission disorders].
abstract: The results of jitter measurements in 15 patients with myasthenia gravis and 10 control group persons are presented using single fiber emg (SFEMG) method during weak voluntary activation and intramuscular AS. The method of AS is described, advantages of its use in evaluation of neuromuscular transmission disorders, some limitations and technical traps that the investigator encounters are presented. Jitter values obtained by both methods are compared and existing differences are discussed taking into account two variants of jitter origin.
