Presence of Subclinical Polyneuropathy in Patients with Elevation of Hbalc

Introduction: It is aimed to investigate the relationship between the asymptomatic individiuals with elevated HbAlc and occurrence of polyneuropathy by way of comparison to normoglycemic condition. Methods: The study includes 30 female patients diagnosed with subclinical elevation of HbAlc and 30 normoglycemic healthy female patients who applied to our hospital polyclinics with symptoms other than neuropathy between January-March 2017. Nerve conduction examination is done in these patients, parameters of both groups are compared. Results: In regard to amplitude distribution; when compared to control group, tibial motor and ulnar sensory nerve amplitude is lower than the control group (p
