Basal electromyographic amplitude in rapid eye movement (REM) and non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep as a predictor of disease progression in isolated REM sleep behavior disorder
Elevated basal EMG amplitude during both REM and NREM sleep in iRBD patients shows potential as a prognostic marker, indicating muscle tone dysregulation beyond REM atonia loss and underscoring the need to consider broader sleep stages in iRBD evaluation.
