Abstract

The ulnar and posterior tibial conduction velocities were measured in a group of normal full-term English, West Indian and Turkish infants. The English infants had a faster mean ulnar nerve conduction velocity than the West Indian and Turkish infants, but when the sex of the infants was taken into account only the male West Indian infant was found to have slower mean velocities. By three months of age the velocities were similar between the West Indian and English infants. This study emphasises the importance of taking account of the sex of infants in any developmental study.

摘要

对一组正常足月的英国、西印度群岛和土耳其婴儿测量了尺神经和胫后神经传导速度。英国婴儿的平均尺神经传导速度比西印度群岛和土耳其婴儿快，但当考虑婴儿性别时，发现只有西印度群岛的男婴平均速度较慢。到三个月大时，西印度群岛婴儿和英国婴儿的速度相似。这项研究强调了在任何发育研究中考虑婴儿性别的重要性。
