AB  - Motor unit (MU) potentials of m. triceps br. of healthy subjects and patients 
      with myasthenia gravis were recorded during slight isometric contractions. MU 
      potentials were visually identified, semi-automatically coded and automatically 
      led in the digital computer. In myasthenia the mean frequency of the MU 
      discharges and SD of the interspike intervals were higher than in healthy states, 
      the difference being not great, but significant. The interspike interval 
      hystograms of single MUs were unchanged (normal). So the disturbances in pattern 
      of motoneurone activity in myasthenia were mild. Proserin raised the muscle 
      contraction strength and normalized the interspike interval variability but did 
      not lower the frequency of MU discharges. The increase of the frequency may be 
      accounted for the reduction of Renshaw inhibition.
