Ocular neuropathy in peripheral neuropathies
Muscle & Nerve, 2012AbstractOcular movements and coordination require complex and integrated functions of somatic and autonomic nervous systems. Neurological disorders affecting these nervous systems may cause ocular dysfunction involving extraocular muscles and pupils. In this article, the prevalence, clinical presentations, and management of ocular neuropathy related to

Leprosy and Peripheral Neuropathy
Journal of Clinical Neuromuscular Disease, 2004Leprosy, although rare in the United States, continues to be a leading cause of peripheral neuropathy and blindness worldwide. We describe the pathogenic agent Mycobacterium leprae and discuss the epidemiology of this disease. The different classification schemes are compared and the clinical and laboratory features are presented.

Peripheral neuropathy in CADASIL
Journal of Neurology, 2005Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leucoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a hereditary cerebral microangiopathy associated with mutations in the Notch 3 gene. The clinical phenotype is characterized by cerebral impairment even though typical microvascular changes are diffuse.To assess peripheral neuropathy in patients with

Medical Clinics of North America, 2009
Patients presenting with symptoms of peripheral neuropathy are commonplace in the practice of generalist physicians, office based or hospitalists. Although there are at least a thousand different causes for peripheral neuropathy, the majority of patients can be properly diagnosed (and managed) based on framing the diagnostic possibilities within one of

Statins and peripheral neuropathy
European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1999Within the past 3 years seven cases of reversible peripheral neuropathy apparently caused by statins have been reported. Here we report seven additional cases associated with long-term statin therapy, in which other causes of neuropathy were thoroughly excluded.

Lipids and peripheral neuropathy
Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2021Purpose of review Hyperlipidaemia is associated with the development of neuropathy. Indeed, a mechanistic link between altered lipid metabolism and peripheral nerve dysfunction has been demonstrated in a number of experimental and clinical studies.

Peripheral Neuropathy in Pregnancy
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2008Peripheral neuropathy, mononeuropathy and polyneuropathy, are not common in pregnancy. When complaints occur, however, even if minor, they can be bothersome to the pregnant woman. Peripheral nerve function may threaten the mother and fetus in various ways during gestation. Quick recognition and treatment efforts should therefore be the clinician's goal.

Autonomic Peripheral Neuropathy
Neurologic Clinics, 2005This article provides a summary of the autonomic neuropathies, including neuropathies associated with diabetes mellitus, neuropathies due to amyloid deposition, immune-mediated autonomic neuropathies (including those associated with a paraneoplastic syndrome), inherited autonomic neuropathies, and toxic autonomic neuropathies.

Peripheral neuropathies and aging
Gériatrie et Psychologie Neuropsychiatrie du Viellissement, 2018Neuropathies are very common in the population over 65 years old and their prevalence increases with age. The prevalence of polyneuropathies is about 7% in the elderly. However, other possible neuropathies should not be overlooked. Diabetes mellitus is the first cause of neuropathy in the world.

ACQUIRED PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY
Neurologic Clinics, 1997This article reviews the acquired causes of polyneuropathy other than diabetic and acute-onset neuropathies. The author gives a general method to simplify the diagnosis of chronic polyneuropathy. The acquired polyneuropathies are discussed under four main headings: metabolic disorders, toxic or deficiency states, infections, and immune-mediated. Recent
