Diabetes is a chronic disease that requires continual medical care and patient self-management education in order to prevent acute complications and to reduce the risk of long-term complications. Diabetes is the leading known cause of neuropathy in developed countries, and neuropathy is the most common complication and the leading source of morbidity and mortality in diabetes patients. Diabetic...
OBJECTIVE To establish if corneal nerve loss, detected using in vivo corneal confocal microscopy (IVCCM), is symmetrical between right and left eyes and relates to the severity of diabetic neuropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Patients (n = 111) with type 1 and type 2 diabetes and 47 age-matched healthy control subjects underwent detailed assessment and stratification into no (n = 50), mild...
Intraocular pressure (IOP) and the mydriatic responses to darkness in 38 diabetic patients have been compared with those of a matched control group of normal subjects. Overall, the diabetic patients had a significantly higher mean IOP than the control group, but this difference was not found in a sub-group of 13 diabetic patients with evidence of autonomic neuropathy. Those diabetic patients wi...
1. Neurovascular inflammation is impaired in patients suffering from diabetic neuropathy. The aim of our study was to evaluate the distribution of nutritive and total skin blood flow in diabetic patients with and without neuropathy after neurovascular stimulation with acetylcholine. 2. Twenty patients with Type I diabetes, 10 with and 10 without neuropathy, and 10 age-matched non-diabetic contr...
OBJECTIVE Heightened expression of the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) contributes to development of systemic diabetic complications, but its contribution to diabetic neuropathy is uncertain. We studied experimental diabetic neuropathy and its relationship with RAGE expression using streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice including a RAGE(-/-) cohort exposed to long-term diabet...
OBJECTIVE This study proposes a new approach that considers uncertainty in predicting and quantifying the presence and severity of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. METHODS A rule-based fuzzy expert system was designed by four experts in diabetic neuropathy. The model variables were used to classify neuropathy in diabetic patients, defining it as mild, moderate, or severe. System performance wa...
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE In view of the growing burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) globally and associated microvascular and macrovascular complications, the study was done to assess the prevalence and risk factors for diabetic neuropathy among T2DM patients attending a tertiary care hospital. SUBJECTS AND METHODS T2DM patients' ≥30 years of both gender, presenting to the Medicine Departm...
We hypothesized that diabetic sensory neuropathy is associated with activation of apoptosis and concomitant mitochondrial dysfunction. Studies were performed in excised intact and acutely dissociated dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons from control and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats with decreased peripheral nerve conduction velocities (NCV). Apoptosis was increased in acutely dissociated ...
OBJECTIVE Verrucous skin lesions on the feet in diabetic neuropathy is a condition usually induced by chronic mechanical stimulation of the feet of patients with diabetic neuropathy and usually occurs at weight-bearing sites. We here present a rare case involving a man with verrucous skin lesions on the feet in diabetic neuropathy at an unusual, non-weight-bearing site. METHODS A 58-year-old ...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate mechanisms underlying diabetic neuropathy progression using indexes of sural nerve morphometry obtained from two identical randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Sural nerve myelinated fiber density (MFD), nerve conduction velocities (NCVs), vibration perception thresholds, clinical symptom scores, and a visual analog scale for pain w...
