Article Synopsis
- - The study explores the connection between insulin resistance, measured via estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR), and chronic complications in individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D), indicating that insulin resistance plays a significant role in these complications.
- - Researchers analyzed data from 70 T1D patients, finding that 30% had metabolic syndrome (MS), with those having MS showing lower eGDR levels compared to those without.
- - The results demonstrated that eGDR effectively distinguishes between patients with and without diabetic complications such as nephropathy, retinopathy, and neuropathy, suggesting its potential for use in routine diabetes care despite the need for more diverse studies.
Objective: To examine the performance and agreement of 5 modalities for testing sensory neuropathy against a neurothesiometer among Hispanic patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) in an outpatient setting.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary reference center in Mexico City. Sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and likelihood ratios were calculated using a VibraTip device, 128 Hz tuning fork, and the Semmes-Weinstein 5.
