The following abbreviations are used: n.a., not available; EEG, electroencephalogram; MRS, brain magnetic resonance spectroscopy; EMG, electromyography; ENG, nerve conduction studies; HV serology, negative serology for hepatitis A, B, and C; SPECT, brain ([123I]-FP-CIT) single photon emission computed tomography of the dopamine transporter. A normal striatal uptake of this tracer indicates the integrity of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathways.
Deceased.
The Mn levels were measured by different laboratories and in different times in the different individuals. Thus, different units of measurement and normal ranges are reported.
