Relationship between Gravidity, Parity, and Neurophysiological Features in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) Patients with a History of Pregnancy.

Background: It is not yet clear if gravidity and parity have any relationships with the electrodiagnostic parameters of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Objective: To determine whether there is a relationship between electrodiagnostic findings, gravidity, and parity number in CTS.

Materials And Methods: Female patients over 18 years of age with CTS were included in this retrospective cohort study.

The effect of Jendrassik maneuver on the persistence of the peroneal nerve F-wave.

Objectives: This study investigated whether peroneal nerve F-wave persistence increased when the Jendrassik maneuver (JM) was performed, aiming to obtain information about the physiology of F-waves and JM.

Patients And Methods: Thirty healthy individuals (HIs; 17 females, 13 males; mean age: 33.6±8.

Needle electromyography abnormalities in the upper trapezius muscle in neuromuscular disorders.

Background: : Needle electromyography (EMG) abnormalities in the trapezius muscle (TM) can be seen in neuromuscular disorders. The aim was to determine the characteristics of needle EMG abnormalities observed in the TM in neuromuscular disorders.

Methods: The data of patients who applied to the Clinical Neurophysiology Laboratory of University of Health Sciences Adana City Training and Research Hospital between December 2018 and October 2021 were reviewed.

Optical coherence tomography neurodegenerative findings in patients with bipolar disorder.

Introduction: Neuroimaging studies of patients with bipolar disorder (BD) have recently revealed neurodegenerative changes in the central nervous system. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging of the retina, as an extension of brain, may be a biomarker in understanding the neurobiology of the disease. To assess OCT as a tool to detect neurodegeneration in BD we compared the retinal changes between patients with BD and healthy individuals.
