Development and validation of risk prediction model for diabeticneuropathy among diabetes mellitus patients at selected referral hospitals, in Amhara regional state Northwest Ethiopia, 2005-2021. Diabeticneuropathy is the most common complication in both Type-1 and Type-2 DM patients with more than one half of all patients developing nerve dysfunction in their lifetime. Although, risk prediction model was developed for diabeticneuropathy in developed countries, It is not applicable in clinical practice, due to poor data, methodological problems, inappropriately analyzed and reported. To date, no risk prediction model developed for diabeticneuropathy among DM in Ethiopia, Therefore, this study aimed prediction the risk of diabeticneuropathy among DM patients, used for guiding
Time to diabeticneuropathy and its predictors among adult type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in Amhara regional state Comprehensive Specialized Hospitals, Northwest Ethiopia, 2022: A retrospective follow up study. Diabeticneuropathy is the primary cause of foot ulcers and amputations in both industrialized and poor countries. In spite of this, most epidemiological research on diabeticneuropathy in Ethiopia have only made an effort to estimate prevalence, and the information underlying the condition's beginning is not well-established. Therefore, determining the time to diabeticneuropathy and its variables among adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at the Compressive Specialized Hospitals of the Amhara region was the aim of this study. An institutional-based retrospective

Psychosocial Care for People With DiabeticNeuropathy: Time for Action. Psychological factors and psychosocial care for individuals with diabeticneuropathy (DN), a common and burdensome complication of diabetes, are important but overlooked areas. In this article we focus on common clinical manifestations of DN, unremitting neuropathic pain, postural instability, and foot complications
Spectrum of DiabeticNeuropathy: New Insights in Diagnosis and Treatment. Diabeticneuropathy is a highly prevalent complication of diabetes. It consists of a broad range of neuropathic conditions, such as distal symmetric polyneuropathy and various forms of autonomic neuropathies involving the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and urogenital systems. Prevention or diagnosis in early stages of disease is crucial to prevent symptomatic onset and progression, particularly in the absence of current disease-modifying therapies. In this review, we describe the four main types of diabeticneuropathy. We review current understanding with respect to diagnosis and treatment while highlighting knowledge gaps and future directions.

It effectively alleviates symptoms, improves psychological well-being, reduces pain sensation, and enhances overall quality of life. These findings can guide physicians in adopting a more evidence-based treatment approach and provide patients with more effective
Skin keratinocyte-derived SIRT1 and BDNF modulate mechanical allodynia in mouse models of diabeticneuropathy. Diabeticneuropathy is a debilitating disorder characterized by spontaneous and mechanical allodynia. The role of skin mechanoreceptors in the development of mechanical allodynia is unclear. We discovered that mice with diabeticneuropathy had decreased sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) deacetylase activity in foot skin, leading to reduced expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and subsequent loss of innervation in Meissner corpuscles, a mechanoreceptor expressing the BDNF receptor TrkB. When SIRT1 was depleted from skin, the mechanical allodynia worsened in diabeticneuropathy mice, likely due to retrograde degeneration of the Meissner-corpuscle innervating Aβ axons and aberrant
