Is the difference between median sensory and ulnar motor latencies better than combined sensory index in carpal tunnel syndrome diagnosis? [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives: This study aims to compare the sensitivity and specificity of median sensory nerve/ulnar motor nerve latency difference (MSUMLD) as a new method with combined sensory index (CSI) for accurate diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome.

Psychosocial Outcomes in Patients With Endocrine Tumor Syndromes: A Systematic Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The combination of disease manifestations, the familial burden, and varying penetrance of endocrine tumor syndromes (ETSs) is unique. This review aimed to portray and summarize available data on psychosocial outcomes in patients with ETSs and explore gaps and opportunities for future research and care.

Gender Differences in Nerve Conduction Parameters of Upper Limb Nerves in Healthy Adults: A Comparative Study

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences
Background: Nerve conduction studies (NCSs) are essential diagnostic tools for evaluating peripheral nerve function. The influence of gender on nerve conduction parameters, such as conduction velocity, latency, and amplitude, remains a topic of interest.

Incidence and Outcome of Infants With Cancer in Canada: A Report From Cancer in Young People in Canada Database

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Infants with cancer are rare and face unique challenges. Our study aims to describe the incidence of infantile cancers in Canada and to compare treatment‐related mortality (TRM) and their outcomes with those of older children. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Cancer in Young People in Canada database ...

Is resistance to ischaemia of motor axons in diabetic subjects due to membrane depolarization? [PDF]

, 1990
The reasons for the resistance to ischaemia of peripheral nerves in diabetics are not well understood. We have now explored whether axonal depolarization underlies this phenomenon, as has previously been proposed.

Evaluating the Genetic Overlap Between Congenital Heart Disease and Neuroblastoma Risk

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) have elevated neuroblastoma (NB) risk, potentially due to shared neural crest origins. We analyzed rare exonic de novo single‐nucleotide variants in 702 CHD and 454 NB trios from the Neuroblastoma Epidemiology in North America Study, Gabriella Miller Kids First Program, and a published cohort. Seven

Patterns of facial and blink reflex abnormalities in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with short disease duration: a clue to subclinical cranial neuropathy

Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation, 2022
Background Cranial neuropathies occur in 3 to 14% of diabetic patients. Motor conduction study of the facial nerve and blink reflex study are electrophysiologic techniques used to assess the facio-trigeminal pathway in diabetic patients.

Average reference recording from the vagal nerve reveals an evoked indirect response [PDF]

, 2009
The vagal nerve conveys information from and to many organs, including the heart. The components of the compound action potentials (CAPs) recorded from the vagal nerve give information about the different fiber types present.
