Sensory and Motor Axonal Excitability Testing in Early Diabetic Neuropathy
The study aims to gain insight into the pathophysiology of diabetic polyneuropathy. One hundred and eleven types 2 diabetics with and without DPN were compared. Patients were compared by the likelihood of neuropathy presence.No changes in hyperpolarising threshold electrotonus or recovery cycle parameters. Sensory excitability showed even fewer changes despite pronounced sensory NCS abnormalities.
