Normative Values of Whole Plantar Nerve Conduction Study in Healthy Individuals

Neurological Sciences and Neurophysiology
Introduction: Whole plantar nerve conduction study (WPNCS) is the method, in which medial and lateral plantar nerves are stimulated simultaneously with appropriate surface electrodes, and compound nerve action potentials (CNAPs) are recorded with bipolar

Ultrasonographic Evaluation of Sural Nerve for Nerve Conduction Study [PDF]

Annals of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2014
To understand various morphologic types and locations of the sural nerve (SN) that are important for nerve conduction studies or nerve grafting procedures. The aim of this study was to describe the course and variations of the SN based on ultrasonographic findings for an adequate nerve conduction study.A total of 112 SNs in 56 volunteers with no ...

Clinical and Biological Features of Response in Resistant Neuroblastoma to 131I‐Metaiodobenzylguanidine Radiotherapy in the Anti‐GD2 Immunotherapy Era

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background 131I‐metaiodobenzylguanidine (131I‐MIBG) radiotherapy is a key treatment for relapsed and refractory (R/R) neuroblastoma (NB). Patients with R/R disease treated in the modern era are increasingly exposed to anti‐GD2 immunotherapy, which exerts selective pressure and may modify both tumor cell state and microenvironment.

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.

Heterogeneity in the Global Practice of Central Nervous System Staging in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is assessed by cell counting and cytomorphology from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and is used for treatment stratification worldwide. The ratio of “CNS2” patients in clinical trials ranges from 3% to 40%, with unclear prognostic significance ...

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We
