Posterior femoral cutaneous nerve sensory conduction study in a sample of apparently healthy Egyptian volunteers

Table 2 Elicitability of the posterior femoral cutaneous nerve sensory nerve action potential among the participants

Elicitability of the PFCN SNAP	Participants (n = 60)	Male participants (n = 31)	Female participants (n = 29)	Comparison between men and women
Elicitability of the PFCN SNAP	n (%)	n (%)	n (%)	Test of significance	P
Elicited bilaterally	46 (76.7)	23 (74.2)	23 (79.3)	X² = 3.103	0.212
Elicited unilaterally	6 (10.0)	5 (16.1)	1 (3.4)
Not elicited bilaterally	8 (13.3)	3 (9.7)	5 (17.2)
