Patterns of Nerve Fibre Impairments and Neuronal Activation in Male Diabetic Rats With and Without Mechanical Allodynia: A Comparative Study.
Abstract
It is still clinically difficult to definitively distinguish between painful and nonpainful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). In this study, pain patterns were further categorized; diabetic rats were grouped according to the presence or absence of mechanical allodynia (MA), which is a hallmark of neuropathic pain, and comparisons were made between diabetic rats with and without MA.
