In 100 patients with the neural and spinal forms of hereditary amyotrophies the potentialities of combined electrophysiological examinations (stimulatory, general, and local electromyography) were estimated. It is shown that the method of determining the speed of the impulse transmission along the afferent and efferent fibres of the peripheral nerves and the daily fluctuations of that speed may have an additional significance in diagnosing this pathology, A comparative analysis of the data obtained showed that the most informative was combined electrophysiological examination of the patient.

D009435 Synaptic Transmission The communication from a NEURON to a target (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) across a SYNAPSE. In chemical synaptic transmission, the presynaptic neuron releases a NEUROTRANSMITTER that diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds to specific synaptic receptors, activating them. The activated receptors modulate specific ion channels and/or second-messenger systems in the postsynaptic cell. In electrical synaptic transmission, electrical signals are communicated as an ionic current flow across ELECTRICAL SYNAPSES.

D002607 Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease A hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy transmitted most often as an autosomal dominant trait and characterized by progressive distal wasting and loss of reflexes in the muscles of the legs (and occasionally involving the arms). Onset is usually in the second to fourth decade of life. This condition has been divided into two subtypes, hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN) types I and II. HMSN I is associated with abnormal nerve conduction velocities and nerve hypertrophy, features not seen in HMSN II.
