DPN can present with a wide range of symptoms, including pain, unsteadiness, weakness, postural hypotension, gastroparesis, and impotence. It can lead to foot ulceration, Charcot foot, and amputation. It is desirable to periodically assess for the presence of neuropathy and also stratify neuropathy in patients in anticipation of these problems. It is important to be aware of the strengths and l...
متن کاملMolecular underpinnings of diabetic polyneuropathy.
TO THE EDITOR: Allen and colleagues (2) provided an in-depth review of the pathophysiology and functional outcomes of diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN) among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). As explained (2), DPN often manifests in a symmetrical and length-dependent pattern affecting distal portions of long peripheral nerves of patients with DM (11).

متن کاملSubclinical Inflammation and Diabetic Polyneuropathy
OBJECTIVE Subclinical inflammation represents a risk factor of type 2 diabetes and several diabetes complications, but data on diabetic neuropathies are scarce. Therefore, we investigated whether circulating concentrations of acute-phase proteins, cytokines, and chemokines differ among diabetic patients with or without diabetic polyneuropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We measured 10 marker...
متن کاملRisk Factors For Diabetic Polyneuropathy.
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors for distal symmetric sensory-motor polyneuropathy (DSP) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). METHOD Sixty seven patients with type 2 DM (33 males and 34 females) were included in the study. In addition to a detailed neurological examination, the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument was administered to all pa...
