Diseases of the peripheral nervous system
2000Abstract Magnetic stimulation has found a number of applications in the investigation of diseases where the predominant abnormality is in peripheral nerves. The use of stimulation over the cervical and lumbar enlargements to excite motor roots at the exit foramina has been tried in the search for a technique to detect proximal conduction

Neurologic Manifestations of Systemic Disease: Peripheral Nervous System
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2020The impact that systemic disease has on the peripheral nervous system is vast. Polyneuropathies due to these disorders fall into broad categories including metabolic diseases, nutritional deficiencies, rheumatological diseases, infectious diseases, and malignancy-associated disorders.

Central and Peripheral Nervous System Diseases
2007Immune diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system constitute an heterogeneous group of disorders which share a significative implication of the immune system in pathophysiology. Multiple sclerosis (MS), Guillain Barre syndrome (GBS) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) are considered of autoimmune origin, with an ...

Involvement of peripheral nervous system in juvenile Parkinson's disease
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009We evaluated, by using electrophysiological techniques, 29 patients with juvenile Parkinson's disease (JP), who had no known causes or clinical signs of neuropathy. Electromyographic evidence of chronic partial denervation with reinnervation was observed in nine patients (34.6%).

Peripheral Nervous System Involvement in Patients With Behçet Disease
The Neurologist, 2007Central nervous system involvement in Behçet disease (BD) has been well documented, but studies evaluating peripheral nervous system involvement are relatively uncommon.The aim of this study is to evaluate the frequency and characteristics of peripheral nervous system involvement in BD.Sixty-nine BD patients (36 women, 33 men) followed by neurology and

Paraneoplastic Diseases of the Peripheral Nervous System
2016Peripheral nervous system involvement is the most commonly observed condition in patients with paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS), and its clinical manifestations are highly heterogeneous. The peripheral nervous system can be variously involved, but the most frequently affected sites are the dorsal ganglia and presynaptic nerve endings of the ...

[Structure of diseases of the peripheral nervous system].
Zhurnal nevropatologii i psikhiatrii imeni S.S. Korsakova (Moscow, Russia : 1952), 1983The structure of peripheral nervous system diseases is reviewed by analyzing 941 in- and outpatient case histories. Of this number, 57.34% of the patients had radicular syndromes, 16.17%, acute injuries of nerves and plexuses, and 22.66%, tunnel and other compression syndromes. Cases of polyneuropathy and other disorders accounted for only 3.83%.

Immune Diseases of the Peripheral Nervous System
1983When considering the immunological mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of any disease of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) three major questions must be asked: 1. What is the target antigen? 2. What causes the immune damage? 3. What triggers the immune response?
