Influence of age on motor nerve conduction.
Motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) has been determined in seventy five normal healthy male subjects in different age groups in Right ulnar and median nerves respectively. It is observed that MNCV decreases in the older age group. Further it is seen that MNCV is less in the distal than in the proximal segment, the results being significant in the median nerve.
متن کاملThe effects of lettuce extract on the level of T4, memory and nerve conduction velocity in male rats
Objective: According to the traditional medicine,lettuce can affect nerve conduction velocity and memory. So, to investigate the effect of lettuce seeds extract on body activities, lettuce seeds were used. Materials and Methods: In the present study, the effects of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) seeds extract consumption (in drinking water) on T4 level...
متن کاملEffects of elbow position on motor conduction velocity of the ulnar nerve.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of the ulnar nerve motor axons to conduct an evoked action potential at three elbow positions (0 degrees, 90 degrees, and 120 degrees). The latency (from above and below elbow), negative-phase amplitude, and duration of the evoked action potential were used to evaluate the effect of elbow position on 50 normal men. The results indicate that ...
متن کاملRatio of motor nerve conduction velocity to F-wave conduction velocity in diabetic neuropathy.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the usefulness of a new parameter, the ratio of motor nerve conduction velocity to F-wave conduction velocity (M/F ratio), for the differential diagnosis of diabetic neuropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Nerve conduction studies were conducted in 95 patients with diabetic neuropathy, 44 nondiabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy, and 24 normal control subjects....
متن کاملMotor nerve conduction velocity in spinal muscular atrophy of childhood.
The ulnar and posterior tibial conduction velocities were measured in 29 children with spinal muscular atrophy, 14 of whom had the servere form of the disease. The ulnar nerve velocity was slow in 12 of the 14 severely affected infants, but normal or fast in 11 of 14 children less severely affected. The corresponding results for the posterior tibial nerve were slow velocities in 11 of 12 infant...
