Article Synopsis
- - Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a complex condition often underdiagnosed, and routine diagnostic tests like electrodiagnostic studies are rarely used in diabetes care, despite their importance in identifying neuropathies.
- - A study from a diabetes clinic in Romania examined seven type 2 diabetes patients, leading to the diagnosis of multiple entrapment neuropathies using electroneurography (ENG) and electromyography (EMG).
- - The findings suggest that electrodiagnosis is crucial for identifying focal neuropathies in diabetes patients and indicate that elevated skin autofluorescence (SAF) levels may be linked to the severity of symptoms, although larger studies are needed to confirm these results.
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is involved in various processes, including brain plasticity, learning and memory, neuronal development, nociception, inflammation, appetite regulation, digestion, metabolism, energy balance, motility, and regulation of stress and emotions. Physical exercise (PE) is considered a valuable non-pharmacological therapy that is an immediately available and cost-effective method with a lot of health benefits, one of them being the activation of the endogenous cannabinoids. Endocannabinoids (eCBs) are generated as a response to high-intensity activities and can act as short-term circuit breakers, generating antinociceptive responses for a short and variable period of time.
