Comparison Of Median Nerve Conduction Velocity Between Player Games (Gamers) And Non-Player Games Based On Electroneuromyography [PDF]
Playing games for a long period can induce a negative effect on the hands, especially on the median nerve. This study aims to compare median nerve conduction between gamers and non-gamers.

Follow-up study of sensory-motor polyneuropathy in Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic subjects after simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation and after graft rejection [PDF]
The influence of successful simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation on peripheral polyneuropathy was investigated in 53 patients for a mean observation period of 40.3 months. Seventeen patients were followed-up for more than 3 years.

Identification of mechano-sensitive C fibre sensitization and contribution to nerve injury-induced mechanical hyperalgesia [PDF]
Background: C fibre hyperexcitability is fundamental to chronic pain development in humans and rodents; therefore, peripheral sensory neuronal sensitization plays a role in the development of mechanical hyperalgesia.

Influence of tobacco on median and ulnar nerve in the population of South Rajasthan [PDF]
Background: Chemicals present in tobacco have been implicated in causing subclinical changes in myelin sheaths of peripheral nerves. This may contribute to nerve dysfunction particularly in the form of decreases in nerve conduction velocity.

Differential aging of median and ulnar sensory nerve parameters [PDF]
Introduction: Nerve conduction velocity slows and amplitude declines with aging. Methods: Median and ulnar sensory nerves were tested at the annual meetings of the American Dental Association. Seven hundred four subjects had at least two observations.

Changes in extracellular pH during electrical stimulation of isolated rat vagus nerve [PDF]
Double-barrelled pH-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to record changes of extracellular pH during repetitive stimulation of isolated rat vagus nerves. It was found that a small initial alkaline shift was followed by a prolonged acidification.

A study on median nerve conduction velocity in different age groups [PDF]
Background: Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCS) is a test to measure the speed and electrical activity in a nerve. Physiological factors like age, temperature, height, gender affect the nerve conduction velocity.

Muscle action potential scans and ultrasound imaging in neurofibromatosis type 2 [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: The neuropathy in patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is difficult to quantify and follow up. In this study we compared 3 methods that may help assess motor axon pathology in NF2 patients.

Effect of pregnancy on median and ulnar nerve conduction [PDF]
Background: Pregnancy causes altered function of excitable membranes such as muscle and nerve, due to hormonal changes and edema. We failed to find any studies focusing on the issue of nerve conduction during pregnancy, in India.
