In diseases which cause degeneration of the nerves going to a muscle,stimulation causes results different from the above, and we get what is knownas the reaction of degeneration. r. nervi med. m. pron. {tereti. f. r. vol. prof. n. ulnar. m. palmar brevlsm. abduc. dig. min.

Fig. 336.—Figure Showing Motor Points in the Forearm. LOCOMOTION 475 The intensity of the anodic or cathodic effects is increased by using smallelectrodes, and decreased by electrodes of large surface. In fact in practiceit is usual to apply the indifferent electrode to an extended surface, thus re-ducing its effect below the stimulating intensity, This gives only one activestimulating electrode and is known as the method of unipolar stimulation. SOME SPECIAL COORDINATED MOTOR LOCOMOTION. The greater number of the more important muscular actions of the humanbody, those, namely, which are arranged harmoniously s
