2016, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :Longer duration of symptoms was found to be correlated with negative outcome in many studies. In nonepileptic attacks this association was found in three studies (Lempert and Schmidt, 1990; Selwa et al., 2000; Reuber et al., 2003) and in motor symptoms in five studies (Knutsson and Martensson, 1985; Mace and Trimble, 1996; Feinstein et al., 2001; Jankovic et al., 2006; Thomas et al., 2006). Two other studies in motor symptoms did not find an effect of duration of symptoms on outcome (Williams et al., 1995; Ibrahim et al., 2009).
Functional limb weakness and paralysis
2016, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :Co-contraction is important (and effortful) contraction of one muscle and its agonist resulting in almost no movement at the articulation. In a neurophysiologic study of 12 subjects with functional leg weakness, it was found that knee flexion was weaker than it would have been just with gravity (Knutsson and Martensson, 1985). Motor inconsistency is important difference of motor performance in different testing condition.
