What is Analysing The Progression of Neuropathy in Leprosy about?
This study analyzes the progression of neuropathy in 72 untreated leprosy patients using nerve conduction studies (NCS) over 12 months. It found that 69% of patients exhibited nerve function impairment at diagnosis, predominantly sensory, and while some motor nerves showed improvement, the sural nerve worsened over time. The findings suggest that NCS is a valuable tool for early diagnosis and monitoring of neuropathy in leprosy, which could help prevent disability.
