Which of these indicate a neuropathic cause with needle EMG?

Your patient’s EMG shows normal tibial CMAP and low amplitude peroneal CMAP. Superficial peroneal and sural SNAPs are normal. There are large motor units in the tensor fascia lata and anterior tibialis. Medial gastrocnemius, vastus lateralis, rectus femoris, biceps femoris, gluteus maximus, and lumbar paraspinals are normal. What’s most likely?

Your patient’s EMG shows low amplitude R ulnar, R median, R tibial, and R peroneal CMAPs. SNAPs show low amplitude R median, absent R ulnar, absent R sural. Proximal muscles are normal. There is decreased recruitment of enlarged motor units seen in muscles with distal to proximal gradient, with fibrillation in distal muscles. What’s most likely?

Your patient’s EMG shows normal R ulnar, R median prolonged DL CMAPs. SNAPs show R median with prolonged DL, low amplitude, normal R ulnar. Decreased recruitment of motor units seen in right abductor pollicis brevis. Deltoid, biceps, triceps, flexor carpi radialis, extensor digitorum communis, extensor carpi radialis, first dorsal interosseous are normal. What’s most likely?

Your patient’s EMG shows normal peroneal, tibial, median, and ulnar CMAPs. Sural, median, ulnar SNAPs are also normal. Small motor units are seen in biceps, triceps, deltoid, and anterior tibialis. There are positive waves in those muscles and lumbar paraspinals. Medial gastrocnemius, vastus lateralis, rectus femoris, extensor carpi radialis, abductor pollicis brevis, and first dorsal interosseous are normal. What’s most likely?
