Alcoholic polyneuropathy

Muscle & Nerve, 1985
AbstractAlcoholic polyneuropathy is a common disorder, characterized by nonspecific clinical, electromyographic, and pathologic features. Nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography disclose findings consistent with a generalized, sensorimotor, axonal degenerative, polyneuropathy.

Sensory Polyneuropathies

Continuum, 2017
This article describes the methods of diagnosis and management of the sensory-predominant polyneuropathies. To simplify the approach to this category of patients, sensory-predominant polyneuropathies are divided broadly into either small fiber (or pain-predominant) neuropathies and large fiber (or ataxia-predominant) neuropathies, of which the sensory ...

Ethanol and polyneuropathy

Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009
Two groups of alcoholics (30 patients each)--identified by the MALT score--were examined. Clinical and laboratory investigations showed no connection between thiamine, riboflavin, or Vitamin B6 deficiency and development of the polyneuropathy. Neither the polyneuropathy nor the diminished sensory conduction velocity were related to malnutrition.

Electrodiagnosis of polyneuropathy

Neurophysiologie Clinique/Clinical Neurophysiology, 2000
Electrodiagnostic studies comprising electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS) are well-established objective methods for the diagnosis, quantification and classification of polyneuropathies (PNP). This paper reviews examination techniques, their pathophysiological interpretation, examination strategies and diagnostic criteria for the ...

Polyneuropathies of cats

Journal of Small Animal Practice, 2000
Polyneuropathies of cats have a variety of clinical presentations. Areflexic flaccid quadriparesis, or quadriplegia, progressing over a 24– to 48–hour period, may be associated with polyneuropathies, as can chronic insidiously progressive tremors and muscle weakness that wax and wane or progress slowly over weeks or months, and which can go undiagnosed

Inherited Polyneuropathies

PM&R, 2013
AbstractThe large degree of clinical heterogeneity within each of the major categories of inherited neuropathies can lead to difficulties in making correct diagnoses based on clinical findings alone. The observation of key clinical findings coupled with electrophysiological findings and understanding of inheritance patterns, should allow the clinician ...

POLYNEUROPATHY IN CHILDHOOD

Acta Paediatrica, 1968
SummaryA clinical material is presented consisting of 43 children below 17 years of age with evidence of impaired function of peripheral nerves. One case occurred in a newborn with muscular hypotonia, weakness and areflexia: Thirteen children had signs of an affection also of the central nervous system.

Driving with polyneuropathy

Muscle & Nerve, 2009
AbstractPolyneuropathy may result in pain, numbness, and weakness, which may in turn affect driving ability. Medications used to treat neuropathic pain may alter cognition, which may further affect driving. Although such impairments have engendered questions about the driving safety in this group of patients, the rate of motor vehicle accidents (MVAs ...

Painful Polyneuropathy

Neurologic Clinics, 1989
Pain can complicate a diverse group of peripheral neuropathies. A number of potential mechanisms have been proposed, but available data are inadequate to posit any pathogenesis with certainty. In most cases, knowledge of the clinical findings associated with the various syndromes permits an etiologic diagnosis, which, in turn, may suggest a primary ...

Disulfiram polyneuropathy

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 1984
Disulfiram in generally accepted maintenance doses in alcoholism may produce a rather severe polyneuropathy. In addition to the 39 literature cases, 5 personal patients were examined. Detailed clinical findings are given and the frequent permanent sequelae are emphasized.
