Fifteen diabetic subjects wih thoracic radiculopathy were studied wih paraspinal electromyography. The majority were elderly, mature onset diabetics presenting with unilateral hyperesthesia in a thoracic radicular pattern. None was under adequate control at onset, but control did not seem to alter the symptoms. Electromyography demonstrated localized paraspinal positive waves at the appropriate clinical level. Although not all subjects presented wih peripheral neuropathy, the majority showed electromyographic alteration. This should be an important adjunct in evaluation of diabetic patients with truncal mononeuropathy.
对15例患有胸神经根病的糖尿病患者进行了椎旁肌电图研究。大多数患者为老年起病的成熟型糖尿病患者，表现为胸神经根分布模式的单侧感觉过敏。发病时均未得到充分控制，但控制情况似乎并未改变症状。肌电图显示在适当的临床水平有局限性椎旁正波。虽然并非所有患者都有周围神经病变，但大多数患者有肌电图改变。这在评估患有躯干单神经病的糖尿病患者时应是一项重要的辅助检查。
