Utilidad de los potenciales evocados somato-sensoriales en el diagnóstico del nivel de lesión medular, en pacientes con trauma raqui-medular
The use of somato-sensorial evoked potentials for diagnosis of the level of spinal cord injuries in patients with spine trauma

Se llevó a cabo un estudio comparativo entre dos grupos de 30 individuos cada uno; el primero se integró con pacientes con trauma raqui-medular, 17 con sección completa y 13 incompleta, y el segundo sirvió como grupo controlo, formado por sujetos sanos voluntarios, con el objeto de determinar la util...

Nerve conduction velocity studies on lead workers

Neuroconduction measurements were carried out amongst lead workers and referent groups, the exposed group being surveyed twice with a one year interval between examinations . No dose-effect or dose-response relationships was found between the motor and sensory conduction velocities in the nerves examined...
