Percutaneous (FR) and intramuscular needle (ED) stimulation approaches were used. Jitter was expressed as the mean consecutive difference (MCD). The filter settings were from 1000 H\n                    <jats:sc>Z<\/jats:sc>\n                    to 10 kH\n                    <jats:sc>Z<\/jats:sc>\n                    .\n                    <jats:italic>Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    Abnormal MCD was found in 85% for both ED and FR and in 90% when combining the two muscles. An abnormal percentage of outliers was found in 90% for ED and 85% for FR. The mean MCD did not show a difference for ED and FR, but the percentage of outliers and blocking were higher in FR. Abnormality was found in 93.7% (generalized) and in 75% (ocular) of MG cases. For ED outliers abnormality was greater than the MCD.\n                    <jats:italic>Conclusion:<\/jats:italic>\n                    CNE jitter is reliable for investigation of MG, although borderline findings should be judged with caution.
