Effect of pioglitazone on nerve conduction velocity of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel in type 2 diabetes patients

Figure 1 Amplitude in sensory component of Left Median nerve at baseline and 3 mo (Shaded bar: Pioglitazone arm; White bar: Non pioglitazone arm). ^aP = 0.496, ^cP = 0.002 (Mann-Whitney U Test); ^fP = 0.01 (Wilcoxon matched pairs signed rank sum test). L-M-sensory-Amp: Amplitude in sensory component of Left Median nerve.

Figure 2 Amplitude in motor component of Left Median nerve in the segment between elbow and wrist at baseline and 3 mo (Shaded bar: Pioglitazone; White bar: Non pioglitazone arm). ^aP = 0.049, ^cP = 0.964 (Wilcoxon matched pairs signed rank sum test). L-M-motor-ew-Amp: Amplitude in motor component of Left Median nerve in the segment between elbow and wrist.

Figure 3 Terminal Latency in motor component of Left Ulnar nerve across wrist at baseline and 3 mo (Shaded bar: Pioglitazone; White bar: Non pioglitazone arm). ^aP = 0.043, ^cP = 0.055 (Wilcoxon matched pairs signed rank sum test). L-U-motor-aw-TL: Terminal Latency in motor component of Left Ulnar nerve across wrist.

Figure 4 Terminal Latency in sensory component of Left Ulnar nerve at baseline and 3 mo (Shaded bar: Pioglitazone; White bar: Non Pioglitazone arm). ^aP = 0.161, ^cP = 0.038 (Wilcoxon matched pairs signed rank sum test). L-U-sensory-TL: Terminal Latency in sensory component of Left Ulnar nerve.
