I read with interest the superb review/AAEM minimonograph number 26, ''The Electrodiagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome'' by Stevens. I was puzzled by his statement, ''It is not wise, however, to do multiple different sensitive NCSs in the same patient, because of the risk of a type I error (normal pa

Peripheral nerves contain both autonomic and so-type of diabetes [insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) versus non-insulin-dependent diabetes mel-matic fibers. Autonomic and peripheral sensory neuropathy may therefore be regarded as manifestations litus (NIDDM)]. of a general diabetic polyneuro
Identification of risk factors for development of diabetic sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy (DSPN) and diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DNA) may help to prevent or modify these complications. The ABCD Trial, a prospective study of diabetic complications, has identified risk factors of the presence a
We compared a conventional method of measurement of sciatic motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity, with a novel procedure that measures conduction in an 8-mm segment of the rat sural nerve. Conventional procedures gave reductions in velocity of 20% and 14% for motor and sensory fibers, respect
