( Jevtovic-Todorovic, V; Rastogi, AJ; Todorovic, SM, 2003)

" A significant correlation was noted between the total dosage and duration of therapy with PHT and the reduction of motor conduction velocity in the posterior tibial nerve."1.26Peripheral neuropathy in children on long-term phenytoin therapy. ( Mochizuki, Y; Motomura, T; Ohkubo, H; Suyehiro, Y; Tanizawa, A, 1981)
"Hirsutism was rare in black patients."1.26Effects of diphenylhydantoin in 41 epileptics institutionalized since childhood. ( Herberg, KP, 1977)
"During this treatment a severe mainly motor polyneuropathy occurred acutely which was more pronounced in the distal parts of the legs, and cerebellar symptoms were noted at the same time."1.25[Acute polyneuropathy caused by diphenylhydantoin intoxication (author's transl)]. ( Bajc, O; Meienberg, O, 1975)
"In patients with peripheral neuropathies it was often possible to obtain nerve velocities with signal amplitudes as low as 0·1 μV and these were often slower than those obtained from the normal subjects."1.25Sensory conduction in peroneal and posterior tibial nerves using averaging techniques. ( Lovelace, RE; Myers, SJ; Zablow, L, 1973)
