Abstract

This letter to editor raises the issue of inter-relationship between the height of the individual, the length of the peripheral nerves and patho-neurophysiological changes in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in order to provide implications for practice and research in neuropathic pain care. Height was an independent risk factor for insensate neuropathy albeit not the painful type of DPN and it was associated with other clinical and electrophysiological measures.
