摘要

小纤维神经病（SFN）是一种常见病，可因令人衰弱的疼痛和自主神经症状而严重影响患者的生活。我们将解释神经科医生可用于诊断 SFN 的测试，以及神经生理学家如何进行和解释这些测试。本综述重点介绍可用于研究 SFN 的神经生理学检查及其敏感性、特异性和局限性。其中一些测试仅在专科中心提供。不过，科学研究中正在出现更新的技术，这些技术可能会在未来使诊断这些病症变得更加容易。

Evaluation of small fibre neuropathies.

Small fibre neuropathies (SFNs) are common and can significantly affect patients' lives due to debilitating pain and autonomic symptoms. We explain the tests that neurologists can use to diagnose SFNs and how neurophysiologists perform and interpret them. This review focuses on neurophysiological tests that can be used to investigate SFNs, their sensitivity, specificity and limitations. Some of these tests are available only in specialist centres. However, newer technologies are emerging from scientific research that may make it easier to diagnose these conditions in the future.

期刊介绍： The essential point of Practical Neurology is that it is practical in the sense of being useful for everyone who sees neurological patients and who wants to keep up to date, and safe, in managing them. In other words this is a journal for jobbing neurologists - which most of us are for at least part of our time - who plough through the tension headaches and funny turns week in and week out. Primary research literature potentially relevant to routine clinical practice is far too much for any neurologist to read, let alone understand, critically appraise and assimilate. Therefore, if research is to influence clinical practice appropriately and quickly it has to be digested and provided to neurologists in an informative and convenient way.
