The aim of the study is to evaluate aetiology in a group of SFN patients in comparison with mixed (i.e., small- and large-) fiber neuropathy (MFN). Methods A detailed medical history was taken and exhaustive blood tests, chest radiography and lumbar puncture were performed in a group of 84 patients with \u201Cburning feet\u201D syndrome and clearly proven affection of small nerve fibers (verified by abnormal thermal thresholds and reduced intra-epidermal nerve fiber density in the distal calf). Thirty-three of them also exhibited nerve conduction abnormalities as a sign of large-fibre involvement (MFN group). Results The range and proportions of causes were similar in SFN and MFN subgroups. Diabetes mellitus and chronic alcohol abuse were the most prominent aetiologies (33%; 15%), while further causes were less common and included monocl"@en . .
