Introduction: Axonal excitability measures give insight into the biophysical properties of peripheral nerve axons. In this study we applied these techniques to the study of facial palsy. Methods: Thirty patients with established facial palsy due to unresolved Bell's palsy or herpes zoster (>6 months duration), tumor invasion of the facial nerve, or traumatic facial nerve injury were assessed using...
Introduction
In some peripheral nervous system disorders, cold induces symptoms of muscle weakness without loss of sensation. To understand this selective effect on motor function, it is first essential to delineate the effects of cooling in motor and sensory axons of healthy subjects.
Methods
In 17 healthy volunteers, we performed excitability and clinical tests of median nerve motor and sensory...
