Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) affects the peripheral nerves. Tests to diagnose this condition include nerve conduction studies, electromyography, and sometimes an MRI. CIDP ...

Nerve conduction study (NCS) findings play a well-validated role in diagnosing demyelinating polyneuropathies. Common features in demyelinating polyneuropathies include slowed conduction velocity, ...

Demyelinating disorders constitute a diverse group of diseases in which the protective myelin sheath surrounding central nervous system axons is damaged by immune-mediated or inflammatory processes.

Teriflunomide treatment incurred an unadjusted risk reduction of 63% and an adjusted risk reduction of 72% in inhibiting a first clinical demyelinating event in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).
