CIDP

A

CIDP typically presents with prominent motor involvement, often affecting proximal as well as distal muscles. Sensory involvement is common, often affecting joint position and vibration sense, which are mediated by large myelinated fibres. On nerve conduction studies the typical finding is conduction slowing reflecting demyelination, rather than reduced amplitudes which suggest axonal loss.
