Diabetic neuropathy

Abstract

Many factors contribute to the nerve damage of diabetes—metabolic (myo-inositol), microvascular, glycosylations and ageing. The variety of clinical syndromes indicates the complexity of the disease. Measurement of peripheral and autonomic nerve function is improving allowing theestabliashment of prospoctive natural history and therapeutic studies. There is a need for standardization of clinical definition and staging.
