Nerve biopsy and conduction studies in diabetic neuropathy.
Morphological findings in sural nerves were related to nerve conduction in 12 patients with diabetic neuropathy, five with mainly sensory involvement, four with severe, symmetrical sensory-motor polyneuropathy, and three with multiple mononeuropathy. All had loss of large and small myelinated and of unmyelinated fibres, even early in the disease; segmental remyelination was the most prominent m...
متن کاملFacial nerve conduction in diabetic neuropathy.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) has a severe influence on the nervous system and it is more likely to occur on the nerves of the upper and lower extremities than on the cranial nerves. According to the statistics, the incidence of cranial nerve involvement ranges anywhere from 3% to 14%. The aim of this study is to perform facial nerve conduction studies in diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy, ...
متن کاملSuchitra Parkhad et al. Nerve Conduction Studies in Early Diagnosis of Neuropathy in Diabetic Patients
Background: Neuropathy is one of the common complications of diabetes, in which the patient’s quality of life is compromised. Nerve conduction studies (NCS) are not commonly employed to detect the neuropathy. Aims & Objective: To find out the utility of Nerve conduction studies (NCS) as early indicator of neuropathy in diabetic patients. Materials and Methods: 50 diabetes mellitus patients with...
متن کاملCan nerve conduction studies detect earlier and predict clinical diabetic neuropathy?
Recently, the number of diabetic patients has increased very rapidly and is accompanied by an increasing development of diabetic neuropathies (DNs). The incidence and prevalence of DNs associated with duration of diabetes affects up to 50% of diabetic patients after 25 years of disease. Although DNs are known as the most common complications of diabetes, they was not adequately and properly dia...
متن کاملRatio of motor nerve conduction velocity to F-wave conduction velocity in diabetic neuropathy.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the usefulness of a new parameter, the ratio of motor nerve conduction velocity to F-wave conduction velocity (M/F ratio), for the differential diagnosis of diabetic neuropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Nerve conduction studies were conducted in 95 patients with diabetic neuropathy, 44 nondiabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy, and 24 normal control subjects....
