Bilateral nerve conduction studies in the evaluation of distal symmetric polyneuropathy
Muscle and Nerve, 2019 Nerve conduction studies are used to aid in the diagnosis of distal symmetric polyneuropathy (DSP). It is unclear whether bilateral lower extremity nerve conduction studies (NCS) are needed when evaluating for suspected DSP.

The Effects of Working Hours on Nerve Conduction Test in Computer Operators [PDF]
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2013 BACKGROUND: Long hours of work at a computer can result in potential adverse effects such as pain, paraesthesia, and subjective weakness of upper extremities with associated decreased nerve conduction velocities of peripheral nerves (median and ulnar)

Glial βii spectrin contributes to paranode formation and maintenance [PDF]
, 2018 Action potential conduction along myelinated axons depends on high densities of voltage-gated Na channels at the nodes of Ranvier. Flanking each node, paranodal junctions (paranodes) are formed between axons and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous ...
