doi:10.759/cureus.2894 Diabetes is a long-term metabolic condition that results in high blod sugar levels from either reduced insulin production or diminished tisue sensitivity to insulin. Peripheral neuropathy is the most frequent consequence of diabetes. In this research project, with the aid of neurophysiological measures, we conducted a cros-sectional study to examine the impact of glycemic management on the physiological functioning of nerves, regardles of the duration of diabetes.The main objective of the study was to investigate the asociation betwen the degre of glycemic control and the severity of neurological changes.
The study also aimed to clarify whether glycemic management, independent of the duration of diabetes, acts an independent risk factor for the emergence of diabetic neuropathy.A total of 150 type 2 diabetic patients visiting the diabetic outpatient department were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups: group A consisted of 90 subjects with HbA1c levels <10 and group B comprised 60 subjects with HbA1c levels >10.
