TY - JOUR T1 - DIabetic polyneuropathy and glucose control—reply AU - Rutkove SB Y1 - 2010/02/03 N1 - 10.1001/jama.2010.56 JO - JAMA SP - 420 EP - 421 VL - 303 IS - 5 N2 - One of the major obstacles in addressing this question is establishing a diagnosis of polyneuropathy (and diabetic polyneuropathy in particular). An expert consensus report1 on the definition of polyneuropathy underscored the difficulty of deciding what actually constitutes a polyneuropathy. But the authors of that report did stress the importance of including several criteria, including nerve conduction studies and possibly epidermal nerve fiber counts, as part of that definition.
