  1. 1. Methodological aspects and usefulness of Quantitative Sensory Testing in early small fiber polyneuropathy : a clinical study in Swedish hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis patients

    Författare :Victoria Heldestad; Erik Nordh; Ole Suhr; Göran Solders; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amyloidosis; cold thresholds; heart rate variability; method-of-limits; quantitative sensory testing; transthyretine; warm thresholds; Clinical Neurophysiology; klinisk neurofysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Generalised polyneuropathy (PNP) is a common cause to neurological impairment, and may be an early symptom of a severe systemic disease. One such illness is hereditary transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis (ATTR), a progressive fatal disorder caused by a mutation on the TTR gene. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Quantitative sensory testing, obstructive sleep apnea and peripheral nervous lesions

    Författare :Louise Hagander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska institutet Institutionen för klinisk neurovetenskap Department of Clinical Neuroscience; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE;

    Sammanfattning : In diagnosis of peripheral neuropathies, quantitative sensory testing (QST) is used to assess thermal and vibration sensitivity. QST is a psychophysical method susceptible to the influence of several factors. It is important to standardize the test. Vibrations may cause peripheral nerve lesions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Self-reported symptoms and neurosensory function after electrical accidents : a survey among Swedish male electricians

    Författare :Lisa Rådman; Lars-Gunnar Gunnarsson; Ylva Nilsagård; Håkan Olausson; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Electrical accident; Neurosensory symptoms; No-let-go phenomenon; Pain; Voltage; Quantitative Sensory Testing;

    Sammanfattning : Professionals working in electrical fields are at risk for accidental exposure to electricity on a daily basis. Electrical accidents can cause long-term sequelae manifesting as neurological symptoms, including in the peripheral nervous system. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Effects of electrical accidents : occupational and health perspectives

    Författare :Lisa Rådman; Magnus Thordstein; Håkan Olausson; Kerstin Norman; Finn Nilson; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Electrical accident; Neurosensory symptoms; No-let-go phenomenon; Pain; Voltage; Quantitative sensory testing;

    Sammanfattning : Professionals working in the electrical industry are at risk of accidental injuries caused by electricity. Electrical accidents can cause persistent neurological symptoms, previously mainly described in patients whose injuries were initially extensive. LÄS MER
