2 Fig. 1 Quantitative electromyographic findings (multi-MUAP analysis) from the vastus lateralis muscles in patients 1 and 2. (A, B) Distribution of amplitudes and duration of more than 20 different MUAPs from each muscle (bars) compared with reference values (curve). (C) MUAP amplitudes (log amp) plotted against duration (Dur). Two boxes symbolize distribution limits of reference values: outer box, the range of reference values for individual MUAPs; inner box, mean reference values for all sampled MUAPs. X represents mean amplitude and duration values in the investigated muscle. Both individual and mean motor unit amplitude and duration values are above the normal range, indicating moderate chronic neurogenic findings.

3 Fig. 2 Quantitative electromyographic findings (multi-MUAP analysis) from 3 different muscles in patient 3. The results from biceps brachii, vastus lateralis, and anterior tibialis muscles are shown in the 3 columns from left to right. The findings from the left biceps brachii muscle are within the normal limits, whereas individual and mean motor unit amplitude and duration values of left vastus lateralis and anterior tibialis muscles are above the normal range, indicating moderate chronic neurogenic findings.
