Autonomic diabetic neuropathies: A brief overview

This article summarizes the latest epidemiology of diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN), and provides a brief overview on epidemiology, current outcomes measures for screening and diagnosis in research and clinical settings, the latest evidence on effective management, and novel perspectives on the impacts of social determinants of health in development and management of DAN. Among the various forms of diabetic neuropathy, distal symmetric polyneuropathy and diabetic autonomic neuropathies, particularly cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy, are by far the most studied. However, emerging data highlight the impact of other forms of autonomic neuropathies such as gastrointestinal and urogenital autonomic neuropathies, on healthcare and patients' reported outcomes [1].PMID:38245325 | DOI:10.1016/j.diabres.2023.110762
