At baseline, the patients had a lower mean nerve-fiber density in the ankle (6.48 nerve fibers/mm) than in the distal thigh (13.32 nerve fibers/mm) or proximal thigh (19.98 nerve fibers/mm).

Corneal nerve fiber density was also directly correlated with epidermal nerve fiber length. Besides decreased corneal nerve fiber density, rapid SIV progressors had increased levels of SIV RNA ...

Corneal nerve fiber assessment proposed for managing patients with HIV-induced peripheral neuropathy, according to The American Journal of Pathology Philadelphia, PA, May 12, 2014 – Corneal ...

Several studies have recently reported a decrease in epidermal nerve fiber density in a subset of patients with fibromyalgia (Oaklander et al, Pain 2013; Caro and Winter, Arthritis Rheumatol 2014 ...

Skin biopsy with assessment of epidermal nerve fiber density at the proximal thigh and distal leg can be used to provide objective support for clinically suspected small fiber neuropathy.

Intra-epidermal nerve fiber density was determined by immunohistochemical staining. All of the patients were stabilized using standard antidiabetes therapy and weaned off pain medication.

In patients with the feet/hands pattern, skin biopsies determined that the lower density of intra-epidermal nerve fibers was limited to the distal leg, and was considered as representing axonal ...

We perform ENFD biopsy (Epidermal nerve fiber density). And it proves by biopsy that there is nerve regrowth. The best part about this treatment? It is covered by insurance and Medicare.

Results from a recent pilot study indicated that histological findings may be useful in predicting wound healing in patients undergoing rhytidectomy.The study was conducted to determine ...

Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) is a sensory neuropathy that affects small fibers and their functions. Currently there is not a gold standard for the diagnosis of SFN. While skin biopsy provides an ...
