[Capillaroscopy and diabetic microangiopathies].

Using conjunctival capillaroscopy, the authors studied 40 diabetic patients during glycemic decompensation. The capillaroscopic test, after all metabolic control tests, was repeated 1 and 3 months later and demonstrated improved microcirculation in 10 patients, and proved that therapeutic control is possible during the progression of diabetic microangiopathy.
