- Abstract
We performed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to determine the ability of sphincter electromyography (EMG) to distinguish multiple system atrophy (MSA) from other parkinsonisms. The following was determined: (1) the appropriate motor unit potential (MUP) parameter among duration, phase, and amplitude; (2) the desirable parameter of our duration criteria; that is, more than 20% MUPs having >10 ms duration (criteria a) or mean duration >10 ms (criteria b).
