Figures & data
Notes: (A) Prolonged MUP duration and increased percentage of polyphasic MUPs were detected by EAS-EMG in MSA group. (B) Prolonged MUP duration was detected by US-EMG in MSA group.
Abbreviations: EAS-EMG, external anal-sphincter electromyography; US-EMG, urethral-sphincter electromyography; MSA, multiple-system atrophy; MUPs, motor unit potentials.
