An extent of alteration of motor unit potentials (MUP) in Parkinson’s disease directly depends on the form of the disease. In patients with the shaking-rigid form a decrease in duration of MUP is mostly observed and more common is increase in the amplitude of MUP. All patients with different forms of the disease equally regard their disease as a psychotraumatic factor that impairs their quality of life and restricts their role in the society.
