| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pathophysiology of diabetic peripheral neuropathy will depend on the type of diabetes mellitus, however, it has not yet been fully clarified. To investigate the mechanism, we evaluated structural and functional changes in peripheral nerve fibers using multiple electrophysiological methods. We enrolled 22 patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM), 32 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and 20 normal controls (NC). Nerve conduction studies, nerve excitability testing and sensory evoked potentials using intraepidermal electrical stimulation (IES-SEP) were performed. Pain was more frequently recognized in patients with T2DM than T1DM. IES-SEP test showed prolonged latencies in the T2DM group compared with the NC group. In nerve excitability testing, patients with T1DM showed the membrane depolarization compared with the NC group, and the degree correlated with the duration of disease. The electrophysiological tactics is of help for the elucidation of the pathophysiology.
