Comparison of nerve conduction studies with diabetic neuropathy symptom score and diabetic neuropathy examination score in type-2 diabetics for detection of sensorimotor polyneuropathy.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: To compare the nerve conduction studies in clinically undetectable and detectable sensorimotor polyneuropathy in type 2 diabetics. METHODS: Diagnosed diabetics (n = 60) were divided in two groups. Group 1 (n1 = 30) with clinically ... Read more...

Long-term efficacy of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation for different types of lower urinary tract dysfunction in children.

18 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: We evaluated the efficacy of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation for different types of pediatric lower urinary tract dysfunction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 14 children with idiopathic overactive bladder, 14 with dysfunctional ... Read more...

Modality-specific hyperexcitability of dorsal horn neurons to mechanical stimuli in herpetic mice.

3 Aug 2009 Percutaneous inoculation of mice with herpes simplex virus type-1 produces marked dynamic allodynia in the zosteriform dermatome. In this study, we examined the electrophysiological excitability of the wide-dynamic range neuron in the spinal dorsal ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Tibial Nerve'

Definition: The medial terminal branch of the sciatic nerve. The tibial nerve fibers originate in lumbar and sacral spinal segments (L4 to S2). They supply motor and sensory innervation to parts of the calf and foot.
