Nerve Conduction Velocity in Smokers and Gutka Chewers: A Case-control Study [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021 Introduction: Chemicals that are present in cigarette/bidi smoke and gutka have been known to cause subclinical changes in myelin sheaths of peripheral nerves. Despite the antiquity and popularity of smoking and gutka chewing, its effect has not been

Genetic analysis of peripheral nerve conduction velocity in twins [PDF]
, 1995 We studied variation in peripheral nerve conduction velocity (PNCV) and intelligence in a group of 16-year-old Dutch twins. It has been suggested that both brain nerve conduction velocity and PNCV are positively correlated with intelligence (Reed, 1984 ...

Treatment of Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats with Alogliptin: Effect on Vascular and Neural Complications [PDF]
, 2011 We sought to determine the effect of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibition on streptozotocin diabetes-induced vascular and neural dysfunction. After 4 weeks of untreated diabetes, rats were treated for 12 weeks with Alogliptin (DPP-IV inhibitor ...

Evaluation of Sensory Nerve Conduction Studies and Hematologic Parameters in Restless Legs Syndrome
Türk Nöroloji Dergisi, 2020 Objective: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) presents with sensory symptoms such as burning in the legs, patients want to move their legs. Symptoms become apparent at rest and at night. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sensory

Noninvasive peroneal sensory and motor nerve conduction recordings in the rabbit distal hindlimb: feasibility, variability and neuropathy measure. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The peroneal nerve anatomy of the rabbit distal hindlimb is similar to humans, but reports of distal peroneal nerve conduction studies were not identified with a literature search.
