Factors Contributing to Postural Sway in Patients with Diabetes in an In-Hospital Education Program

Conclusion: In patients with poorly controlled DM, postural sway was particularly associated with deterioration of motor nerve conduction study parameters represented by median nerve CMAP amplitude, tibial nerve CMAP conduction velocity, and peroneal nerve CMAP latency. A link between diabetic polyneuropathy, diabetes-related postural sway, and diabetes-related hearing loss was recognized.Audiol Neurotol Extra 2014;4:23-31
