Ulnar sensory-motor amplitude ratio: a new tool to differentiate ganglionopathy from polyneuropathy

The objective of this study was to evaluate if the ratio of ulnar sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) over compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes (USMAR) would help in the distinction between ganglionopathy (GNP) and polyneuropathy (PNP). Methods We reviewed the nerve conductions stud...
