Anterior shin muscles CMAP measurements: Normal limits of symmetry and intra- and interobserver reliability.

Objective: The normal limits of symmetry for the compound muscle action potential of the shin muscles (CMAPshin) have not been determined yet. The goal of this study is to provide extensive data on the limits of symmetry and the reliability of CMAPshin.

Methods: The study was conducted in normal healthy males and females.

Reversal of head drop after discontinuation of olanzapine in a DLB patient.

We present a 72-year-oldpatient with probable diffuse Lewy body disease and visual hallucinations, who developed subacute reversible "dropped head syndrome" and parkinsonian signs after the introduction of olanzapine at a total daily dose of 10 mg. One week after olanzapine was withdrawn, the patient's posture started to improve. Further improvement was achieved after dopaminergic substitution.
