abstract：BACKGROUND:Carpal tunnel syndrome is very common. Although surgery is effective in mild and moderate cases, recovery is often incomplete in severe cases. Therefore, adjuvant therapy to improve nerve regeneration in those patients is much needed. Acetyl-L-carnitine has been shown to be effective in other neuropathies. T...
