Abnormal results of function studies of peripheral nervous system and special senses - what does this mean

Abnormal function studies of the peripheral nervous system and special senses can occur due to a variety of conditions, including trauma, infection, autoimmune diseases, genetic disorders, and certain medications. the results of such tests can give insight into the underlying cause of the abnormality and help guide diagnosis and treatment.

What happens during the disease - abnormal results of function studies of peripheral nervous system and special senses

The pathogenesis of abnormal results of function studies of the peripheral nervous system and special senses is likely caused by damage to the myelin sheath surrounding the nerve fibers, leading to disruption of the nerve signals travelling from the brain and spinal cord to the peripheral nerves. this can be caused by a number of conditions, including autoimmune disorders, genetic disorders, infections, trauma, and environmental toxins. depending on the specific cause, the damage may be localized to a particular area of the peripheral nervous system, or it may involve multiple areas.
