Three patients showing clinical and electrophysiological evidence of peripheral neuropathy also suffered from the syndrome of "painful legs and moving toes". Polygraphic recordings during wakefulness and sleep were consistent with the hypothesis that pathological afferent discharges arising peripherally may induce, via the spinal cord, motor excitation and pain. A severe disruption of the pattern of sleep was found in all cases.
三名有周围神经病变临床和电生理证据的患者还患有“腿部疼痛和脚趾多动”综合征。清醒和睡眠期间的多导记录与以下假设一致:外周产生的病理性传入放电可能通过脊髓诱发运动兴奋和疼痛。所有病例均发现睡眠模式严重紊乱。
