Each participant subsequently received a controlled-pressure provocative test. The time to symptom provocation was recorded, with a maximum duration of 30 s. Spearman\u2019s rank correlation was used to assess the association between test duration and electrodiagnostic severity.\nResults: In 124 hands, 31, 45, and 48 hands were categorized by the degree of electrodiagnostic severity as mild, moderate and severe, respectively. There was no correlation (\u03c1\u2009=\u2009\u20130.16, p-value\u2009=\u20090.074) between controlled-pressure provocative test duration and electrodiagnostic severity.\nConclusions: There was no correlation between controlled-pressure provocative test duration and electrodiagnostic severity in patient with carpal tunnel syndrome.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2340\/jrm.v58.44203","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,28]],"date-time":"2026-01-28T07:03:15Z","timestamp":1769583795000},"page":"jrm44203","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Correlation between controlled-pressure provocative test duration and electrodiagnostic severity in carpal tunnel syndrome"],"prefix":"10.2340","volume":"58","author":[{"given":"Apiphan","family":"Iamchaimongkol","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Khanin","family":"Leeareekun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Waree","family":"Chira-Adisai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Apisara","family":"Keesukphan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1183","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"139754","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bland JD.
