Screening for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: Subjective Versus Objective Measures.
Int J Low Extrem Wounds

Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Malta, Msida, Malta.
This study compared subjective screening modalities recommended in diabetic foot screening guidelines for the detection of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) with an objective measure, the NC-Stat DPNCheck. We assessed 63 participants (mean age 54.5 years ± 10.

Aims/introduction: Although several studies have shown the association between continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived glycemic variability (GV) and diabetic peripheral neuropathy, no studies have focused on outpatients or used NC-stat®/DPNCheck™, a new point-of-care device for nerve conduction study (NCS). We investigated the association between CGM-derived GV and NCS using DPNCheck™ in outpatients with type 2 diabetes, and further analyzed the difference in results between patients with and without well-controlled HbA1c levels.
Materials And Methods: All outpatients with type 2 diabetes using the CGM device (FreeStyle Libre Pro®) between 2017 and 2022 were investigated.
Clinical Tools for Peripheral Neuropathy to Exclude Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Introduction: Assessment for cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) remains difficult in everyday clinical practice. We sought to examine the diagnostic utility of various simple tools for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in the detection of CAN in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Methods: We examined 153 type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects by various DPN tools (vibration perception threshold, 10 g Semmes-Weinstein monofilament, Ipswich touch test, NC-stat/DPNCheck, neuropathy disability score) for the detection of CAN.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to validate a portable nerve conduction study device (NC-stat/DPNCheck™) for diagnosing diabetic polyneuropathy, which typically requires expensive, specialized equipment.
- 57 diabetes patients underwent tests using both the DPNCheck™ device and a standard electromyography system to compare their effectiveness.
- Results showed strong correlations between the two methods, indicating that the point-of-care device is reliable and may be a useful tool for evaluating diabetic polyneuropathy.
Difference in normal limit values of nerve conduction parameters between Westerners and Japanese people might need to be considered when diagnosing diabetic polyneuropathy using a Point-of-Care Sural Nerve Conduction Device (NC-stat®/DPNCheck™).

Aim/introduction: Studies on a novel point-of-care device for nerve conduction study called DPNCheck have been limited to Westerners. We aimed to clarify Japanese normal limits of nerve action potential amplitude (Amp) and conduction velocity by DPNCheck (investigation I), and the validity of DPNCheck to identify diabetic symmetric sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN; investigation II).
Materials And Methods: For investigation I, 463 non-neuropathic Japanese participants underwent DPNCheck examinations.
