To evaluate previous results from a questionnaire-based study, we studied objective neuropathy measures to determine sex differences in the prevalence of neuropathy and neuropathic pain in longstanding type 1 diabetes. Despite better neuropathy measures in females compared to males, we confirmed a trend towards higher neuropathic pain in females.
为了评估基于问卷的先前研究结果,我们研究了客观的神经病变测量指标,以确定长期 1 型糖尿病患者中神经病变和神经病理性疼痛的性别差异。尽管女性的神经病变测量指标优于男性,但我们仍证实了女性神经病理性疼痛有升高的趋势。
