Abstract
The electromyography of 6 macular, 1 neural and 5 tuberous cases was measured upon the lesions of the forearms and lower legs under the forceless and gradually contracted conditions. The wave and the distance of the discharge were compared with those of the normal people.
1. The wave measured upon 6 places of both forearms of serious tuberous patients compicated with mutilation of the fingers and the claw-hands showed the wave of Grouping-voltage, though some differences were observed.
At the time of the quietness, no spike discharge was observed.
2. No difference was observed between the results of slight disformed patients and those of the normal people.
3. The waves and the distances of discharge examined by electromyography presented no difference, unless the the patients were complicated with extreme disformities.
