  1. Group 1: Control, Group 2: Astragalus mongholicus Bunge, Group 3: Coptis japonica (Thunb.) Makino, Group 4: Aconitum carmichaelii Debeaux, Group 5: Paeonia lactiflora Pall
  2. NCV Nerve conduction velocity, PA Proximal amplitude, DA Distal amplitude
  3. aOne-way ANOVA
  4. Only the Aconitum carmichaelii Debeaux group had a significantly higher amplitude in the proximal and distal parts than the control group (p = 0.002 and p = 0.041, respectively)
