Electrophysiological studies of myoclonic jerks provoked by photic stimulation
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009A patient with a type of myoclonus produced by somatosensory and photic stimuli was studied electrophysiologically. Jerk-locked averaging showed cortical spikes in association with the spontaneous myoclonus. High amplitude somatosensory evoked potentials and high amplitude visual evoked potentials were observed.

An analysis of the myoclonic jerks produced by 1,2-dihydroxybenzene in the rat
Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1973Abstract In rats deeply anaesthetized with urethane, injection of 1,2 dihydroxybenzene (catechol; 60 mg/kg i.p.) produces a stimulus-sensitive state in which a variety of sensory stimuli, e.g., a brief electrical shock or mechanical tap applied to the periphery, or a binaural click, produce brief (myoclonic) muscular jerks.

Brainstem-mediated locomotion and myoclonic jerks. II. Pharmacological effects
Brain Research, 1997Previous studies in our laboratory have demonstrated that microinjection of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) agonist into the nucleus magnocellularis (NMC) of the medial medulla increases muscle tone and/or produces locomotion, while injection of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and non-NMDA agonists into the same or nearby sites suppresses muscle tone.

Brainstem-mediated locomotion and myoclonic jerks. I. Neural substrates
Brain Research, 1997Eleven of 40 decerebrated cats were found to exhibit periods of spontaneous or sensory myoclonus and locomotion beginning 24 h after decerebration. Histological analysis showed that the cats generating myoclonus hemorrhagic lesions in the retrorubral nucleus (RRN) and ventral mesopontine junction (vMPJ).

Memantine exacerbates myoclonic jerks in a rat model of posthypoxic myoclonus
Brain Research, 2010The mechanism of cerebral hypoxia-induced myoclonic jerks is not known. Some studies have suggested that glutaminergic NMDA receptor activation in the inferior olive resulting in excitotoxic neuronal injury in the cerebellum is the underlying cause of posthypoxic myoclonus.

Eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome with myoclonic jerks.
The Journal of the Florida Medical Association, 1991A patient while using L-tryptophan had typical features of the eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome and in addition myoclonic jerks which are unusual for this syndrome.

Introduction: Patients with myoclonic jerks and seizures represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge as they fall under the differential diagnosis of uncommon and often difficult to diagnose diseases. Progressive myoclonic epilepsies (PMEs) are a group of disorders which presentation is during late childhood or adolescence characterized by ...
