A rabbit sensitized with myelin lipid galactocerebroside develops autoimmune demyelinating polyneuropathy. The nerve conduction study was performed prior to sensitization (a) and at the peak of limb ...

Effect of localized Nerve Cooling on Compound Action Potentials. In clinical studies, nerve conduction velocity is considered to decrease by roughly 2 m/s per °C of cooling. Decrease in nerve ...

Your muscles move when nerve signals from the brain tell them to get to work. Electromyography (EMG), a diagnostic test, measures how well your muscles respond to those signals. Movement is a complex ...

Neurophysiology is a discipline within the health sciences that deals with the measurement and assessment of nervous system function, rather than the anatomy of the nervous system. This field helps to ...

A novel gene that controls nerve conduction velocity has been identified in a new study. Investigators report that even minor reductions in conduction velocity may aggravate disease in multiple ...
