초록
신경전도검사는 말초신경의 기능을 객관적으로 정량화 할 수 있어 말초신경병의 진단 및 추적관찰에 필수적인 검사로 활용된다. 신경전도검사는 여러 생리학적 요인에 의해 영향을 받으며, 현재 미국 신경근 및 전기진단 의학 협회(American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnosis Medicine) 에서는 신경전도 표준화 사업(Normative Data Task Force, NDTF)을 구성하여 정상치를 제시하고 있으나, 그 수가 불충분하다. 현재 한국인을 대상으로 한 신장과 다리길이에 따른 신경 전도속도를 함께 비교 및 상관관계를 조사한 연구가 존재하지 않아 본 연구를 통해 신장과 다리길이에 따른 하지 신경전도속도를 비교하고자 한다. 총 49명의 대상자를 모집하였으며, 키와 다리길이에 따른 운동신경전도검사와 감각신경전도검사를 비교한 결과, 키에 따른 양측 종아리신경 운동신경전도속도 및좌측 정강신경의 운동신경전도속도 모두 통계적으로 유의한 음의 상관관계를 보였으며, 다리길이에 따른 양측 얕은종아리 신경 감각신경전도속도 및 양측 장딴지신경의 감각신경전도속도 모두 통계적으로 유의한 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 하지만 NDTF에서는 연령을 나누어 제시되는 것에 반해 이번 연구에서는 모든 대상자가 20대의 성인으로, 다양한 연령의 한국인을 대상으로 추가적인 연구를 통해 키와 다리길이에 따른 신경전도속도를 보다 정확하게 관찰할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.
Abstract
Nerve conduction study (NCS) is an essential test for the diagnosis and follow-up of peripheral neuropathy. NCS can objectively quantify peripheral nerve function. NCS is affected by physiological factors such as height, age, body mass index, etc. Hence, the American Association of Neuromuscular & Electrodiagnosis Medicine (AANEM) is currently forming a Normal Data Task Force (NDTF) to present the normal value, but the number is significantly less. Currently, no research has been carried out on the correlation between nerve conduction speed and height and lower limb length in Koreans. Hence, this study sought to compare the nerve conduction velocity of the lower limbs according to the height and lower limb length. A total of 49 subjects were recruited. When the motor nerve conduction velocity and sensory nerve conduction velocity were compared according to the height and leg length, there was a statistically significant negative correlation of the peroneal and left tibial motor nerves with the height. Also, a statistically significant negative correlation was observed with the superficial peroneal sensory nerve and the sural nerve and the leg length. However, in this study, all the subject are in twentys age, whereas the NDTF is divided by age. Hence, additional studies involving subjects of various age groups are needed.
