Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: In the demyelinating form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, median motor conduction velocity (MCV) was noted to be around 20 m/s in peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) duplications, in contrast to higher MCVs in connexin 32 gene (Cx32) mutations and lower MCVs in the demyelinating form of myelin protein zero gene (MPZ) mutations. METHODS: Nerve conduction studies were performed in 64 families with...
