ABSTRACT Regeneration after peripheral nerve injury is often insufficient for functional recovery. Postoperative electrical stimulation (PES) following injury and repair significantly improves clinical outcomes; recently, conditioning electrical stimulation (CES), delivered before nerve injury, has been introduced as a candidate for clinical ...

ABSTRACT Background Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv amyloidosis) is an autosomal dominant systemic disease, with an overall poor prognosis. Markers of disease onset are urgently required to optimize the timing of treatment initiation. Nerve conduction studies (NCS) are an objective, reproducible, and non‐invasive tool for following large ...

A review of technical and physiological aspects of F-wave studies and analyzis of the data obtained in a group of diabetic patients [PDF]
We reviwed some physiological aspects of the F-wave studies, mainly related to the motoneurone sizes involved in the generation of this potentials and the number of stimuli necessary to analyze the F-wave parameters.
