الوصف: | The isokinetic muscle strength in 56 IDDM patients with > 20 years of diabetes duration and in their individually sex-, age-, weight-, and height-matched control subjects was assessed. Peak torque of foot dorsal and plantar flexion and knee and wrist extension and flexion was measured. The neuropathic condition was assessed by a neurological disability score, a neuropathy symptom score, nerve conduction studies, and quantitative sensory examination. All results were summed to obtain a neuropathy rank-sum score for each patient. According to their renal albumin excretion, the patients were classified to have normo-, micro-, or macroalbuminuria. In addition, according to their retinal status, patients were classified as having no, simple, or proliferative retinopathy. The IDDM patients had a 21% reduction of muscle strength of both ankle dorsal (P < 1 × 10™4) and plantar flexors (P < 0.01), compared with control subjects. A 16% reduction of knee extensors (P < 0.005) and a 17% reduction of knee flexors (P < 0.01) was found. In contrast, muscle strength in wrist flexors and extensors was not significantly reduced (10 and 11%, respectively [NS]). In patients with the most severe weakness, muscle strength of the calf muscles was only 50% of the expected performance. Correlations were found between the neuropathy rank-sum score and the muscle strength of ankle dorsal (r = −0.66, P < 1 × 10™7) and plantar flexors (r = −0.51, P < 0.0005), knee extensors (r = −0.51, P < 0.0005) and flexors (r = −0.44, P < 0.005), and wrist flexors (r = −0.41, P < 0.005). No correlation was found for wrist extensors (r = 0). Neither were there any relationships between muscle strength at the ankle and knee and the degree of albuminuria or retinopathy. In conclusion, motor performance is substantially impaired in long-term IDDM patients, and the weakness is related to the presence of neuropathy but not to albuminuria or retinopathy per se. |
