Effect of hyperglycemia on conduction parameters of tibial nerve’s fibers to different muscles: A rat model
Introduction: Routine conduction studies reflect the summation of all nerve fibers in a peripheral nerve. Nerve fiber groups to distal, small muscles have smaller diameters than the ones to large proximal muscles. There may be minimal differences between the diameters of nerve fiber groups innervati...
