Abstract:
Small fiber neuropathy is a peripheral neuropathy that selectively involves unmyelinated C-type fibers and (or) thin myelinated Aδ-type fibers. It is mainly manifested as abnormal pain and temperature perception and autonomic symptoms. Changes in certain inflammatory markers and antibodies related to autoimmune diseases can occur in patients with immune-related small fiber neuropathy. This article aims to explore the immunological progress in small fiber neuropathy.
