TI  - Toe Pinch Force in Male Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients.
PG  - 143-149
LID - 10.18926/AMO/54983 [doi]
AB  - We compared the toe pinch force in men with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus 
      (T2DM). Sixty-eight male T2DM patients and 35 apparently healthy men matched for 
      age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. 
      We compared the toe pinch force between the subjects with and without T2DM, and 
      we evaluated the effect of diabetic polyneuropathy on toe pinch force in the 
      patients. The toe pinch force of the T2DM patients was significantly lower than 
      that of the subjects without diabetes (3.12+/-1.22 kg vs. 4.40+/-1.19 kg, p<0.001). 
      Multiple regression analysis showed that T2DM was a determinant of reduced toe 
      pinch force. In addition, the toe pinch force of patients with diabetic 
      polyneuropathy was significantly lower than that of patients without diabetic 
      polyneuropathy (2.31+/-0.93 kg vs. 3.70+/-1.07 kg, p<0.001). Multiple regression 
      analysis showed that diabetic polyneuropathy was a determinant of the toe pinch 
      force in men with T2DM, even after adjusting for age, BMI, HbA1c, and duration of 
      diabetes. Reduced toe pinch force is a fundamental feature of motor dysfunction 
      in men with T2DM, and diabetic polyneuropathy might be associated with toe pinch 
      force in these patients.
