Clinical and functional features of diabetic polyneuropathy in children
Abstract
102 children with diabetes mellitus I type and diabetic polyneuropathy were observed by means of the routine neurological assessment, standard neuropathic scales (NDS, NSS), EMG and Nerve Conduction Velocity in Out-patient Child Diabetes Center. It demonstrated the development of neuropathy after 3 years from beginning of disease, a prevalence of disturbances in distal parts of lower extremities. EMG showed decrease of nerve conduction velocity, amplitudes and distal latencies of M-responses and F-waves in motor, sensory and autonoimic nerves. Statistic analysis allowed to make the scheme for detection of neuropathic disturbances’ severity.
