Assessment of nerve conduction velocity slowing and its association with the severity of diabetic polyneuropathy, duration of diabetes and glycemic control in diabetic patients
Our findings indicate that male gender, poor glycemic control, and a longer duration of diabetes are associated with slowing of nerve conduction velocity. Additionally, the severity of neuropathy, as measured by the Neuropathy disability score, further strengthens these associations, highlighting its significance in assessing diabetic neuropathy progression.
