Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
common inclusion criteria for all subjects:
- Man or woman age ≥ 18 years.
- Affiliation to social security.
- Signature of informed consent.
Inclusion criteria for CIDP patients:
- Patients with certain IPDC according to the following criteria defined by the EFNS 2010:
At least one of demyelination following criteria must be present:
- Extension of the Distal Motor Latency ≥ 50% above the limit Normale Supérieure (LNS) in 2 nerves (excluding impairment of the median nerve at the wrist due to carpal tunnel syndrome);
- Reducing the speed of conduction Average ≥ 30% below the normal limit Lower (LNI) in 2 nerves;
- Extension of the latency of the F wave ≥ 30% above the ULN in two nerves (≥ 50% of the LNS if the amplitude of distal negative peak PAGM (Action Potential Global Muscle) is < 80% of the LNI;
- Lack wave F in 2 nerves if these nerves have an amplitude of the negative peak of the distal PAGM ≥ 20% of the LNS + ≥ 1 other parameter of demyelination in * ≥ 1 other nerve;
- Conduction Block partial engine: decreased range ≥ 50% of the negative peak of the proximal to the distal PAGM PAGM, if the negative peak of the distal PAGM ≥ 20% LNI in 2 nerves or nerve + 1 ≥ 1 another parameter of demyelination in ≥ 1 * other nerve;
- abnormal temporal dispersion (> 30% increase in duration between the negative peak of the proximal and distal PAGM) ≥ 2 in nerves;
- PAGM distal length (interval between the start of the negative peak and its return to baseline) in ≥ 1 nerve (median ≥ 6.6 ms, ulnar ≥ 6.7 ms ≥ 7.6 ms peroneal, tibial ≥ 8.8 ms) + 1 ≥ another parameter * demyelination in ≥ 1 other nerve.
Inclusion criteria for patients NMMBC:
Patients with certain NMMBC according to the following criteria defined by the EFNS (2010):
- Weak slowly progressive or progressive members in spurts, and focal asymmetric, due to damage of the driving motor nerve distribution in at least two nerves, for over a month.
- Lack of objective sensory abnormality except for sensory anomalies minor vibrations in the lower limbs.
- In a nerve:
- conduction block some engine.
Conduction normal sensory nerves in the segments of the upper limbs with conduction block.
- No evidence of upper motor neuron.
- Lack of significant bulbar weakness.
- Sensory impairment less marked than the minor loss of sensitivity to vibrations in the lower limbs.
- symmetrical weakness Lack broadcasts during the first weeks.
Inclusion criteria for the neuropathy patients with anti-MAG antibody:
- Patients with neuropathy with anti-MAG antibody according to criteria defined by the EFNS (2010):
electrophysiological criteria:
- symmetrical uniform reduction of conduction velocity; more severe at that sensory motor.
- Distal Motor Latency disproportionately long: Index of Distal Latency ≤ 0.25.
- Potential sural missing.
Clinical criteria:
- Early disease> 50 years.
- ataxia associated with shaky hands.
Biological criteria:
- IgM monoclonal rate lower than 10 g / l, or greater than 10 g / l in the context of Waldenström's macroglobulinemia.
- Presence of anti-MAG antibody (Myelin-Associated Glycoprotein).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Presence of risk factors associated neuropathic disease (diabetes, chronic alcoholism, kidney failure, HIV status, Lyme disease, vasculitis or any other factor which, in the judgment of the investigator, could pose a risk).
- A patient pathology judged by the investigator as interfering with the proper conduct of the study.
- Positive pregnancy test. A urine pregnancy test will be performed for women of childbearing age. Results will be communicated to the patient by a doctor of his choice.
- Refusal of the subject to participate in the study.
- Topic guardianship or curatorship.
- Inability of the subject to cooperate.
- No affiliation to a social security scheme (beneficiary or assignee).
