Title: Contribution of type 1 reactions to sensory and motor function loss in borderline leprosy patients and the efficacy of treatment with prednisone. Source: Int. J. Lepr;66(3):340-347, Sept. 1998. tab. Abstract: The changes in nerve function tests in 297 new leprosy patients over an average period of 30 months were measured. The impact of type 1 reactions (T1R) on sensory and voluntary muscle function was measured by standard tests. Sensory function was improved in patients with single episodes of cutaneous T1R, but not improved in patients with neural T1R or with multiple episodes of either kind of T1R. Patients over 40 years of age improved less than younger patients, and patients admitted for treatment of T1R improved more than those treated as outpatients. These data point to a need to find better regimens for the treatment of nerve damage in T1R. (AU)^ien.

Id: 13352 Author: Kaplan, Marian; Gelber, Robert H Title: Evaluation of testing modalities for peripheral neuropathy in lepromatous Hansen's disease ..- Source: s.l; s.n; nov. 1985. 4 p. ilus, tab. Abstract: To assess methods for detecting peripheral neuropathy, 28 previously untreated patients with lepromatous Hansen's disease underwent upper extremity manual muscle testing, sensory testing by using monofilaments, and electrophysiological nerve conduction studies (motor and sensory) at their initial examination. All but three patients demonstrated some abnormality identified by at least one of the testing procedures. Sensory testing with monofilaments located the greatest number of abnormalities found in 24 of the 28 patients. Next, electrophysiological testing demonstrated neuropathy in 21 of the 28 patients tested; 20 of these patients had sensory abnormalities and 20 had motor irregularities. The least sensitive method was manual muscle testing, which detected abnormalities in only 12 patients. Furthermore, sensory testing with monofilaments revealed peripheral neuropathy in 5 patients whose electrophysiological studies showed normal sensory patterns, and electrophysiological testing detected abnormalities in 1 patient whose sensory monofilament examination was normal. The results of this study support the usefulness of all three testing modalities.(AU).

Id: 13319 Author: Sebille, Alain Title: Respective importance of different nerve conduction velocities in leprosy ..- Source: s.l; s.n; aug. 1978. 7 p. tab, graf. Abstract: Motor and sensory nerve conduction studies were performed in the distal part of the ulnar, median and radial nerves of 12 tuberculoid and 12 lepromatous leprosy patients, compared with 15 normal subjects. Slowing of sensory conduction velocity (SCV) was shown in all nerves with no difference between tuberculoid and lepromatous patients. The radial SCV slowing is correlated (P less than 0.001) with the clinical findings. Impairment of motor distal latencies was observed only in tuberculpoid patients. It is concluded that the radial SCV is the most reliable conduction test and is proposed as an early diagnostic test for leprosy.(AU).
