The relationship of vibration perception threshold with metabolic control and duration of disease in British children with type 1 diabetes

Kallampallil Jins , Goodwin Simon , Riddle Miles

Introduction: Type 1 diabetes affects a large number of children and adolescents, and its incidence is on the rise worldwide. The most devastating and important consequence of diabetes is its role in the development of long-term microvascular complications.
