Difference between Muscle and Myoclonus

Muscle vs. Myoclonus

Muscle is a soft tissue found in most animals. Myoclonus is a brief, involuntary twitching of a muscle or a group of muscles.

Similarities between Muscle and Myoclonus

Muscle and Myoclonus have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Brainstem, Central nervous system, Cerebral cortex, Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease, Electromyography, Motor neuron, Neurological disorder, Neurotransmitter, Parkinson's disease, Peripheral nervous system, Spinal cord, Stroke.

Brainstem

The brainstem (or brain stem) is the posterior part of the brain, adjoining and structurally continuous with the spinal cord.

Central nervous system

The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting of the brain and spinal cord.

Cerebral cortex

The cerebral cortex is the largest region of the cerebrum in the mammalian brain and plays a key role in memory, attention, perception, cognition, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness.

Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease

Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) is a universally fatal brain disorder.

Electromyography

Electromyography (EMG) is an electrodiagnostic medicine technique for evaluating and recording the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles.

Motor neuron

A motor neuron (or motoneuron) is a neuron whose cell body is located in the motor cortex, brainstem or the spinal cord, and whose axon (fiber) projects to the spinal cord or outside of the spinal cord to directly or indirectly control effector organs, mainly muscles and glands.

Neurological disorder

A neurological disorder is any disorder of the nervous system.

Neurotransmitter

Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals that enable neurotransmission.

Parkinson's disease

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a long-term degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that mainly affects the motor system.

Peripheral nervous system

The peripheral nervous system (PNS) is one of the two components of the nervous system, the other part is the central nervous system (CNS).

Spinal cord

The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular bundle of nervous tissue and support cells that extends from the medulla oblongata in the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column.

Stroke

A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain results in cell death.

The list above answers the following questions

Muscle and Myoclonus Comparison

Muscle has 218 relations, while Myoclonus has 117. As they have in common 12, the Jaccard index is 3.58% = 12 / (218 + 117).
