Abstract

In the history of science, the alterations of laboratorial working conditions during a defined period of time and the processes leading to substitution of one instrument by another are not well reconstructed. With respect to electrophysiology between 1845 and 1910, the present article attempts to call attention to the relationship between the use of instruments in a laboratory, the change in these instruments and the change of local environments in which the laboratory was situated.

[The diagnosis of acquired sensory neuropathies].

INTRODUCTION: Peripheral neuropathies usually include a sensory component of various causes. The diagnosis approach requires careful a clinical assessment and a precise electrophysiological exploration. STATE OF ART: Axonal sensory polyneuropathies are classified according to the type of fibers involved (large or small fibers). While there is a large number of causes, current emphasis is placed on glucose intolerance as a source of small-fiber sensory neuropathies. Demyelinating polyneuropathies are often associated with a monoclonal IgM gammapathy with anti-MAG activity. Multiple sensory mononeuropathies are exceptional and suggest possible early-phase vasculities, sensorymotor neuropathy with conduction blocks or leprosy. Sensory neuronopathies can also suggest Sjögren's syndrome or a paraneoplastic syndrome. Finally chronic sensory polyradiculoneuritis constitute a rare subgroup clearly defined as demyelinating inflammatory neuropathy. CONCLUSION: The diagnostic approach to sensory neuropathies requires careful nosological electroclinical classification to reduce the number of explorations performed for etiological diagnosis.
