Figure 5

Estimated marginal means of Norfolk QOL-DN total score in Romanian patients with self-reported diabetes mellitus with and without neuropathy according to the time interval between onset of symptoms of diabetes/complications and physician visit for those symptoms after controlling for age and gender. Error bars represent 95% confidence interval of the estimated marginal means of the total Norfolk-QOL score. Dashed line represents the total Norfolk-QOL score cut-off value suggestive for the presence of neuropathy [7].
