Dear Pieter and LML,

 

Regarding the discussion about testing for peripheral neuropathy / nerve function impairment in Hansen's disease, I bring to your attention the following article from our group of collaborators. This article is also attached to this email:

Baltodano PA, Wan EL, Noboa J, Rosson GD, Dellon AL. Selecting a Test for Leprous Neuropathy Screening. J Reconstr Microsurg. 2015. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1055/s-0035-1556062

 

I invite discussion on this article as well. Some journal club questions include:

> How could the study be improved? For example, what limitations does this study have? 

> What economic, policy, social, etc., impact does this study have on your work and on the broader community?

 

Respectfully,

Eric
