VPT scores.

VPT: highest voltage of the left versus right toe
	C ()	D− ()	D+ ()
Means (SD)	20.2 (5.54)	20.3 (6.04)	37.5 (12.26)
min-max	10–38	10–34	10–50
VPT: highest voltage of the left versus right ankle
	C ()	D− ()	D+ ()
Means (SD)	23.6 (6.50)	24.0 (7.36)	40.6 (11.60)
min-max	12–35	10–45	7–50

Data were expressed as mean (SD) and minimum-maximum (min-max); VPT: Vibration Perception Threshold; C: healthy controls; D−: T2DM without cdNP; D+: T2DM with cdNP.
