[Neuromuscular disturbances in endocrine disorders]

Abstract

In order to study the character of lesions in the neuro-muscular system in endocrinological diseases the authors examined 156 patients with diffuse toxic struma, hypothyroidism and diabetus with the aid of clinico-EMG methods. A comparison of the investigation results of clinical, bioptic material and EMG data testified to an involvement into the process of all regions of the segmental neuromuscular apparatus. The results of EMG studies may serve as control data in relation to the effectiveness of the used therapy.
