Impact on healing of double-layered compression stocking in the treatment of severe venous leg ulcers: A prospective, multicenter, controlled trial.

Venous leg ulcer refers to chronic wounds, generally difficult to heal and often prone to recurrence. The objective of this research was to assess a double layered compression stocking VenoTrain® ulcertec on a population with mostly severe pathologies. This prospective, multicenter, interventional type II study was conducted between September 2018 and January 2022.

A reappraisal of the presence of small or large fiber neuropathy in patients with erythromelalgia.

Objective: To assess the contribution of large and small nerve fiber alteration in erythromelalgia (EM).

Methods: Thirty-three EM patients were included and underwent clinical evaluation based on EM severity score, DN4, and Utah Early Neuropathy Scale (UENS) score. Neurophysiological evaluation consisted in nerve conduction studies (NCS) for large nerve fibers and specific tests for small nerve fibers: electrochemical skin conductance, cold and warm detection thresholds, and laser evoked potentials.
