Abstract
|
|
|
|
Diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN) causes neuropathic pain with reduced quality of life as well as diabetic foot ulceration which sometimes resulted in amputation. Early detection and improved knowledge of pathogenic pathways are important to prevent and to manage DPN. The screening methods and several tests to diagnose DPN-quantitative sensory testing, skin biopsy, corneal confocal microscopy, etc.-will be described.
