The blood-nerve transfer of human plasma albumin glycated with D-glucose was investigated by measuring the permeability coefficient-surface area product (PS) of the blood-nerve barrier to radioiodinated albumin in normal adult rat sciatic nerve. Human albumin (ALB) from normal individuals, freshly
Albumin was measured in the endoneurium of fascicular biopsies of sural nerves and in plasma from diabetic patients with polyneuropathy by solid phase radioimmunoassay, and normalized to total endoneurial and plasma protein, respectively, to obtain an index of the blood-nerve barrier (BNB-Index).
The albumin (Alb), IgG, and IgM concentrations in the endoneurium of fascicular sural nerve biopsy samples were evaluated in controls (n = 9 or 10), diabetic patients without neuropathy (n = 6), and diabetic patients with polyneuropathy (n = 17 or 18). These values were significantly increased in
An increase in the capillary permeability to albumin (CPA) has been reported in diabetic patients. We observed this frequently with a non-invasive isotopic test derived from the Landis method, using 99mTc-albumin and measuring residual radioactivity externally after removal of forearm venous
OBJECTIVE
We investigated associations between serum levels of glycated albumin (GA) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and the presence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
METHODS
Between September 2009 and April 2015, we evaluated 314 patients
This study looked at spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) between patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and healthy controls. The association between diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) with HRV parameter changes and DM risk factors (including nephropathy) was investigated. HRV
OBJECTIVE
Interaction of vascular and metabolic factors appears to contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy. The aim of the study was to assess the impact of arterial stiffening and thickness on diabetic neuropathy in Type 2 diabetes.
METHODS
In 294 patients with Type 2 diabetes,
OBJECTIVE
Heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) is a member of the small heat shock protein family of proteins. HSP27 expression is enhanced in target tissues of diabetic microvascular complications, and changes in circulating serum HSP27 levels (sHSP27) have been reported in patients with macrovascular
Vascular dysfunction, including impaired perfusion has a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of microvascular complications in diabetes mellitus. Both pentoxifylline (PF) and pentosan polysulphate (PPS) are known to improve microcirculation. Antioxidant and antiproteinuric effects of PF are also known.
A high blood concentration of endothelin (ET)-1 may participate in the onset and progress of diabetic microangiopathy, resulting in neuropathy. We examined the therapeutic effects of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), which possesses both a peripheral vasodilating action and inhibition of platelet
Diabetic polyneuropathy is the most common acquired diffuse disorder of the peripheral nervous system. It is generally assumed that insulin benefits human and experimental diabetic neuropathy indirectly by lowering glucose levels. Insulin also provides potent direct support of neurons and axons, and
Present cross-sectional clinical study was aimed at the evaluation the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in Type 2-diabetics suffering from different clinical manifestations of diabetic foot lesions due to peripheral vascular disease and/or diabetic neuropathy. 1025 non-insulin-dependent
Background: Chronic microvascular complications consist of diabetic nephropathy (DN), diabetic retinopathy (DR), and diabetic neuropathy. Diabetic nephropathy is assessed through albuminuria, and diabetic retinopathy is assessed through fundoscopy. Several studies
OBJECTIVE
To test the hypothesis that microalbuminuria may show an independent statistical association with diabetic neuropathy.
METHODS
An observational study of a prospectively identified cohort was conducted at the University Medical Center. The cohort consisted of 78 consecutive diabetic
The prevalence of diabetic autonomic neuropathy and its relationship with other diabetic complications were studied in a geographically defined population. Heart rate variability was measured by a computerized technique at rest and in response to both a single deep breath and a Valsalva manoeuvre.
