The Validity of Different F Wave Parameters in The Diagnosis of Diabetic Axonal Polyneuropathy
Background: The underlying pathology of the vast majority of diabetic polyneuropathies is axonal degeneration. F wave study is one of the most sensitive indices of the severity of neuropathy.

The impact of extended electrodiagnostic studies in Ulnar Neuropathy at the elbow [PDF]
Background: This study aimed to explore the value of extended motor nerve conduction studies in patients with ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow (UNE) in order to find the most sensitive and least time-consuming method. We wanted to evaluate the utility

Evaluation of an AI system for the automated detection of glaucoma from stereoscopic optic disc photographs: the European Optic Disc Assessment Study [PDF]
Objectives: To evaluate the performance of a deep learning based Artificial Intelligence (AI) software for detection of glaucoma from stereoscopic optic disc photographs, and to compare this performance to the performance of a large cohort of ophthalmologists and optometrists. Methods: A retrospective study evaluating the diagnostic performance of an

Nerve Conduction Study in the Extremity Carrying Fistula in Hemodialysis Patients
Introduction: Arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) make chronic hemodialysis easy, but the complications are unpredictable. Ischemic neuropathy due to arterial insufficiency is one of the most important complications of AVF.

Abstract We review our approach for undertaking microelectrode recordings from the posterior tibial nerve at the ankle, which has allowed us to identify, for the first time, the firing properties of muscle spindle endings in the intrinsic muscles of the foot and of cutaneous mechanoreceptors in the sole during unsupported standing.

Anconeus Epitrochlearis Muscle as a Cause of Ulnar Nerve Compression at the Elbow
Ulnar nerve entrapment is the second most common compressive neuropathy in the upper limb, after carpal tunnel syndrome (Dellon, 1986). One of the causes that must be considered is the accessory anconeus epitrochlearis muscle, which is present in 4% to ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) significantly impairs upper limb function, affecting patients' quality of life. Nerve transfer surgery can restore arm and hand function, but its success depends on the health of infralesional lower motor neurons (LMNs).

Hypoxia-inducible factor 1a protects peripheral sensory neurons from diabetic peripheral neuropathy by suppressing accumulation of reactive oxygen species [PDF]
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common diabetic complications. Mechanisms underlying nerve damage and sensory loss following metabolic dysfunction remain large unclear. Recently, hyperglycemia-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and the generation of ROS have gained attention as possible mechanisms of organ damage in diabetes ...
