Diagnostic Tools, Biomarkers, and Treatments in Diabetic polyneuropathy and Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy

Abstract: : The various manifestations of diabetic neuropathy including distal symmetric sensorimotor polyneuropathy (DSPN) and cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) are among to the most prevalent chronic complications of diabetes. Major clinical complications of diabetic neuropathies such as neuropathic pain, chronic foot ulcers, and orthostatic hypotension are associated with considerable morbidity, increased mortality, and diminished quality of life. Despite the substantial individual and socioeconomic burden, t… Show more

“…Indeed, skin AGEs were increased in both small and large nerve fibre impairments. As regards the former, reduced temperature and pinprick sensation (estimates of small nerve fibres [ 14 , 15 ]) were seen in participants with higher skin AGE levels. The same was seen for parameters assessing the latter (abnormal VPT and monofilament).…”

“…2 3 However, DSPN frequently remains an underdiagnosed and undertreated condition as therapy options are limited. 4 Current established options for the management of DSPN are mainly based on control of risk factors such as hyperglycaemia and symptomatic treatment to alleviate neuropathic pain. 5 Near-normal glycaemic control is crucial to delay the development of DSPN in people with type 1 diabetes, although it may not be sufficient to prevent or reverse DSPN.…”

“…Moreover, it is unclear whether analgesic compounds may also alleviate non-painful symptoms such as paraesthesia or numbness, which are frequently reported by patients with DSPN. 4 The available evidence for the effectiveness of pathogenetically oriented disease-modifying pharmacotherapy is still limited. 4 Currently only three agents derived from the pathophysiological pathways implicated in the development and progression of DSPN are available in several countries: α-lipoic acid, benfotiamine and actovegin, whereas other agents such as aldose reductase inhibitors, nerve growth factor, protein kinase C (PKC) ß inhibitor, long-acting (PEGylated) C-peptide or vitamin E were not effective in DSPN.…”
