The Expanded Bead Size of Corneal C-Nerve Fibers Visualized by Corneal Confocal Microscopy Is Associated with Slow Conduction Velocity of the Peripheral Nerves in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Figure 1

Comparison of the bead sizes of the corneal nerve fibers between control subjects, total type 2 diabetic patients, and diabetic subgroups stratified by the severity of neuropathy. Data are the mean ± SEM. compared with control subjects and compared with patients without neuropathy.
