Notes

The influence of improved diabetic control on peripheral nerve function was studied before and 3-4 months after institution of insulin treatment in 22 diabetics unsatisfactorily controlled by oral hypoglycemic agents. After institution of insulin treatment, diabetic control was improved as demonstrated by decreasing levels of HbA1. There was an overall tendency towards improvement of motor and sensory conduction velocities, however significant only in the upper extremities. There was a tendency towards improved temperature sensitivity in the legs, while no changes occurred in the hands and face. The sensation for vibration did not change. It is concluded that improved diabetic control, even in elderly patients with long-standing diabetes, is followed by neurophysiological signs of improved peripheral nerve function.
