Hans Gustav Wilhelm Steinert
[edit]
Hans Steinert, known for publishing the first description of Myotonic dystrophy
- ... that after stimulating them with electricity, Hans Steinert described the worm-like twitching of his patients' muscles? "Thus, these studies observed the physical effects on muscles after electric stimulation. In this context, Steinert correctly inferred that myotonic muscles exhibited tetaniform contractions with minimal stimulus size that outlasted the duration of stimulation. He further observed a “Wurmformige Zuckungen” (worm-like twitching) reaction." Mishra 2018 PMID:30122835

All DYK article requirements met. Nominator has only three credits so no QPQ required for this nomination. Hook facts verified and cited inline; article is not a BLP so no BLP issues here. Good to go with ALT0. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 15:32, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
