Differential impairment of the sudomotor and nociceptor axon-reflex in diabetic peripheral neuropathy

It is not known whether C‐fiber functional subclasses are differentially affected by diabetes mellitus or whether the patterns of C‐fiber dysfunction are different between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. We therefore examined efferent sympathetic sudomotor and primary afferent nociceptor C‐fiber functio...
