[Controlled trial of isaxonine in traumatic or ischaemic (compression) neuropathies (author's transl)].

Fifty patients showing one or more impairments to large nerve trunks due to trauma or ischaemia received, after drawing lots, either isaxonine or a placebo. The evaluation criteria of the recovery were both clinical (testing of muscles, sensory disorders, vegetative disorders, tendon reflexes, tonicity, amyotrophy) and electrophysiological (electromyogram, conduction velocity, distal latency time, H reflex and H/M index). This study shows two major elements: the action of isaxonine shortens healing time (45-90 days instead of 120-150 days) and isaxonine allows neurological recovery to resume at neurologic level whereas the situation was dating back more than three months.
