In this study we examined the value of single-fiber electromyography (SFEMG) in assessing the degree of reinnervation in diabetic patients with clinical neuropathy. Relationships between reinnervation and the degree of metabolic control, and/or duration of diabetes were examined. Thirty-six insulin-
## Abstract We sought to evaluate the utility of quantitative sensory testing (QST) and nerve conduction velocity (NCV) studies as measures of distal symmetric polyneuropathy (DSP). We studied 36 diabetic patients divided into four clinical categories of increasing severity. QST included thermal te
We compared the frequencies and types of motor conduction abnormalities found in peroneal and tibial nerves of patients with either L5/S1 radiculopathies (n = 47) or axonal polyneuropathies (n = 49). In axonal neuropathies, compound muscle action potentials (CMAPs) were more likely to be either unob
