A study of retrograde degeneration of median nerve forearm segment in carpal tunnel syndrome of variable severities

Alexandria Journal of Medicine, 2014
Introduction: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a disorder of the hand which results from compression of the median nerve within its fibro-osseous tunnel at the wrist. The slowing in the forearm motor conduction velocity suggests the presence of retrograde

Diagnostic Value of Sensory Nerve Conduction Studies in Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy

Türk Nöroloji Dergisi, 2023
Objective: The diagnosis of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP) is based mainly on motor nerve conduction studies (NCSs), which may lead to inconclusive results, especially early in the course of the disease.
