| Research Abstract |
The purpose in this study was to measure the knee extension force of type 2 diabetic patients in a multicenter study, and to establish a reference standard value using a general method for which the reliability and validity have been established. We collected data on 724 patients from April 2010 to March 2014 from 30 institutions nationwide. The knee extension force was significantly lower in the diabetic patients with diabetic polyneuropathy (DP) than in the diabetic patients with non-DP, but only in males 60-69 years old (n=130) and 70-79 years old (n=109). No clear difference was observed between diabetic patients with DP and diabetic patients with non-DP in the other groups. It is therefore necessary to continue accumulating data and to examine these data in the future to determine whether any new relationships can be found.
