No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease affecting both upper and lower motor neurons. Electroneuromyography is an important tool for the diagnosis. Previous studies have shown that different components of the blink reflex, such as the latencies of homo- and contralateral R2 responses can be affected. Studies have found that a contralateral R1 component can appear in neurological diseases with affection of the central nervous system especially upper motor neuron, such as HTLV1 infection. Thus, you aim to determine if a contralateral R1 component could be present in ALS.
