Peripheral neuropathy is a common complication of diabetes and may appear as the first manifestation of the disease. It is likely to occur in even the mildest cases of diabetes. Careful regulation of diabetes is necessary for effective treatment of the neuropathy. In early cases the prognosis is excellent. The peripheral nerves, autonomic nerves, cranial nerves, spinal cord and brain are all frequently involved in diabetes. The possibility of diabetes should be considered in the differential diagnosis of many neurologic conditions.
周围神经病变是糖尿病常见的并发症，可能是该疾病的首发表现。即使是最轻微的糖尿病病例也可能发生。仔细控制糖尿病对于有效治疗神经病变是必要的。早期病例预后良好。周围神经、自主神经、脑神经、脊髓和脑在糖尿病中均常受累。在许多神经系统疾病的鉴别诊断中应考虑糖尿病的可能性。
