The aim of the study was to analyse the relationship between clinical and electrophysiological features of uremic neuropathy and age of patients, duration of kidney disease, renal failure and dialysis treatment. 51 patients with end-stage renal failure without diabetes were examined. Apart from a basic neurological examination, conduction velocities in the sural and tibial nerves were determined, and in order to assess the function of the autonomic nervous system, R-R interval variation and sympathetic skin response were tested. In majority of patients, symptoms and signs of sensorimotor neuropathy were found, and about 50% of them had dysautonomia. A negative correlation between age and R-R interval variation was observed. No relationship was found between neuropathy and the duration of nephropathy, duration of renal nor dialysis treatment.
