  • Title: The natural history of uremic neuropathy.
    Author: Albertazzi A, Cappelli P, Di Marco T, Maccarone M, Di Paolo B.
    Journal: Contrib Nephrol; 1988; 65():130-7. PubMed ID: 2844471.
    Abstract:
    The results obtained by electrophysiological recording allow to discover the constant presence of alterations to the central and/or peripheral nervous system in the uremic syndrome. Thus, it becomes possible to demonstrate the existence of an actual 'uremic neuropathy'. Moreover, the results show the persistence and progression of uremic involvement in the course of dialytic treatment; only after kidney transplantation a return to normal takes place. Methodological and interpretative progress will allow us in the future to broaden our knowledge of uremia by providing a useful guide to therapeutic strategies.
