The aim of this study was to quantitatively assess motor deficits in patients with different clinical forms of neurological disorders using the MRC muscle strength scale. Data from 80 patients were analyzed, including 29 women and 51 men. The study considered the clinical forms of motor pathology, gender distribution, and the average muscle strength scores according to the MRC scale.
