Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy. A clinical and electrophysiological study of 92 cases.
TL;DR: Most patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy had made a good recovery and were independent, but 7 patients had either died or were completely immobilized as a result of their disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
The sympathetic nervous system in diabetic neuropathy. A clinical and pathological study.
TL;DR: Disordered blood pressure control in diabetes correlated with the pathological abnormalities in the sympathetic nervous system, and there was a reduced resting heart period, heart period range and mean gain in diabetics.
Journal ArticleDOI
The age-range of risk of developing multiple sclerosis: evidence from a migrant population in Australia.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the risk from environmental factors in multiple sclerosis may operate over a period of many years and not only in childhood and early adult life.
