室温と年令による尺骨神経伝導速度の変化について

抄録

As enviromental conditions, 10°C and 30°C room temperatures were prepared in an artificial climatic chamber. In these conditions, ulnar nerve conduction velocities (M. C. V. and S. C. V.) were recorded. Twenty-three healthy male adults who were classified into two age groups, one younger (12) and the other older (11), were studied. When room temperature changed from 30°C to 10°C, N. C. V. decreased significantly (P<0.001) in both age groups. However, there were no significant differences between the two age groups. As skin temperatures decreased below 20°C, N. C. V. also decreased significantly.
