Neuropathy Caused by Metal Hypersensitivity after Placement of Stainless Steel Plate
Metal hypersensitivity is a rare complication for implants especially with neuropathy involvement. There was not any previous report suggesting metal hypersensitivity manifested in the form of neuropathy or tendinopathy from metal plate implantation ...

International Guillain-Barré Syndrome Outcome Study (IGOS): protocol of a prospective observational cohort study on clinical and biological predictors of disease course and outcome in Guillain-Barré syndrome [PDF]
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute polyradiculoneuropathy with a highly variable clinical presentation, course, and outcome. The factors that determine the clinical variation of GBS are poorly understood which complicates the care and treatment of

Ulnar Neuropathy in the Distal Ulnar Tunnel [PDF]
A brief anatomical review of the ulnar nerve and areas of ulnar nerve entrapment is discussed. The importance of the dorsal cutaneous nerve is presented with regard to localizing a lesion to the ulnar nerve in the forearm. A classification system is described for ulnar entrapment that occurs distal to the wrist.

Pressures recorded in ulnar neuropathy [PDF]
The pressure between the ulnar nerve and the arcade bridging the two heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle was recorded peroperatively in ten patients with electrophysiologically confirmed ulnar neuropathy at the elbow. At rest, with the elbow extended, pressures ranged from 0 to 19 mm Hg but increased in flexion and during isometric contraction of ...

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Changes and Increased Muscle Pressure in Fibromyalgia: Insights from Prominent Theories of Pain and Muscle Imaging [PDF]
Fibromyalgia is a complicated and multifaceted disorder marked by widespread chronic pain, fatigue, and muscle tenderness. Current explanations for the pathophysiology of this condition include the Central Sensitization Theory, Cytokine Inflammation Theory, Muscle Hypoxia, Muscle Tender Point Theory, and Small Fiber Neuropathy Theory.

This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of cutaneous nerve entrapment syndromes, often overlooked and misdiagnosed, especially without a clear inciting injury. Through the utilization of musculoskeletal ultrasound, peripheral neuropathies can be diagnosed and treated successfully. ABSTRACT A 40‐year‐old woman presented with chronic left anterior

Grip Force Modulation on Median Nerve Morphology Changes
ABSTRACT Compression on the median nerve can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), and median nerve indicators measured from ultrasound images can be used for CTS diagnosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between grip force modulation and dynamic morphological changes of the median nerve. We used a digital grip dynamometer to

Novel homozygous missense mutation in GAN associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 in a large consanguineous family from Israel. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: CMT-2 is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of peripheral axonal neuropathies characterized by slowly progressive weakness and atrophy of distal limb muscles resulting from length-dependent motor and sensory neurodegeneration ...
