ABSTRACT Guillain‐Barré syndrome with pandysautonomia can mimic neurodegenerative and cardiogenic conditions, particularly in elderly patients presenting with autonomic symptoms and parkinsonian features. Timely neurologic evaluation and ganglioside antibody testing—especially anti‐GM2—are essential for accurate diagnosis and the initiation of ...

Acute and Chronic Leukemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Background The four primary subgroups of leukemia include chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Very little is known about the regional variation of leukemia and subtypes in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA).

ABSTRACT Aims Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) may be linked to central nervous system changes. This study examined if DPN is associated with an increased risk of incident dementia and cerebrovascular disease in individuals with Type 1 (T1D) and Type 2 diabetes (T2D). Materials and Methods This register‐based cohort study (1998–2020) used data from

Validity and reliability of a point‐of‐care nerve conduction device in diabetes patients
Aims/Introduction Although nerve conduction study (NCS) using a standard electromyography system (EMGS) is considered to be the gold standard in evaluating diabetic polyneuropathy, this examination requires expensive equipment and well‐trained ...

ABSTRACT Background Diagnosing chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) relies on clinical and electrodiagnostic features. In 2021, the European Academy of Neurology/Peripheral Nerve Society (EAN/PNS) revised the CIDP guideline, superseding the 2010 European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS)/PNS guideline.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims It is appreciated that current screening tools for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) often fail to detect early disease. Sudomotor (sweat gland) dysfunction, among the earliest manifestations of DPN, can be measured objectively by the SUDOSCAN® device. We compared SUDOSCAN® with conventional validated screening (Michigan

This work reviews how the metabolic by‐product methylglyoxal may contribute to the development of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), a common complication of diabetes characterized by nerve damage and chronic pain in the extremities. In diabetes, methylglyoxal levels rise due to increased glucose metabolism and reduced detoxification capacity. While

ABSTRACT Objective Microvascular dysfunction contributes to foot complications in type 2 diabetes (T2D) and peripheral artery disease (PAD), yet has been characterized primarily in non‐plantar regions. We evaluated microvascular reactivity and oxygenation at ulcer‐prone plantar sites and responses to combined heat therapy and intermittent pneumatic ...
