  • Title: [Clinico-electromyographic correlations in spasmophilia in the adult].
    Author: Rossi B, Pallesi R, Sartucci F, Di Prete M, Rossi G, Muratorio A.
    Journal: Riv Neurol; 1986; 56(6):365-77. PubMed ID: 3589406.
    Abstract:
    In a group of spasmophilic subjects, symptoms imputable to the syndrome were compared with EMG signs of ischemic neuromuscular hyperexcitability, to evaluate their significance by logistic statistical analysis. Subjects with a duration of postischemic EMG spontaneous activity greater than the mean of normal values + 2.5 DS were considered positive for a spasmophilic syndrome. The following symptoms were selected as positive by the analysis: palpitations, nail and hairs abnormalities, headache, lipothymia; thermoregulation disorders and tremors were negatively related to the syndrome, while sleep disorders and asthenia emerged as positive in the logistic analysis but not significantly so.
