مستخلص: | Introduction: Our objective was to determine the utility of motor unit number index (MUNIX) and neurophysiological index (NI) as surrogate biomarkers of disease progression in limbs without clinical signs of lower motor neuron (LMN) involvement from patients with slowly progressive amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods: Patients with slowly progressive ALS and at least 1 clinically unaffected limb were prospectively enrolled. Clinical signs of LMN loss and results from hand-held dynamometer (HHD), revised ALS Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R), mean-MUNIX (from 3 different muscles), and NI were longitudinally recorded. Results: Eighteen patients with 43 presymptomatic muscles were evaluated. Twenty-seven muscles remained clinically unaffected during study, with stable ALSFRS-R subscores and HHD measures. However, a significant decline in mean-MUNIX and NI was detected. Discussion: Mean-MUNIX and NI were more sensitive than clinical measures at detecting LMN loss in presymptomatic limbs from patients with slowly progressive ALS. Therefore, these electrophysiological biomarkers should be included in early study phases as meaningful outcome measures. Muscle Nerve 58: 204-212, 2018. (© 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.) |
