Abstract

Objective: Analyze some factors related to peripheral nerve damage in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Subjects and methods: We studied 98 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients at the Department of Endocrinology-Diabetes, and Neurology Center of Bach Mai Hospital. Results: We found abnormalities in 22.5% of patients on conduction electromyography. The motor conduction velocity of the ulnar nerve is related to sex (p<0.05). The age of the patient is related to damage to the median nerve, tibial nerve, and peroneal nerve on conduction electromyography (p<0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test, and ANOVA test) and the sural nerve was damaged with prolongation of sensory latency, conduction velocity, decrease in wave amplitude and increase with age (p<0.05). There is a relationship between the HbA1C index and abnormalities on electromyography of the superficial peroneal nerve (OR > 1, p < 0.05), and with abnormalities when measuring motor conduction of the tibial nerve, ulnar nerve, and median nerve (p < 0.05). There was no relationship between the electrophysiological index of the sural nerve and HbA1C (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The peripheral nerve damage in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients is associated with age and HbA1C.
