متن کاملOcular motor myotonic phenomenon in myotonic dystrophy.
OBJECTIVE To detect disconjugate ocular motor abnormalities and a possible extraocular muscle myotonic phenomenon in patients with myotonic dystrophy (MyD). METHODS The magnetic scleral search coil technique was used to record monocularly the small (25 degrees ) and large (50 degrees ) saccades, which were paced to two interstimulus intervals (ISIs), one short (1 s), the other long (5 s). The...
