DPN primarily manifests as MFN in T1DM, with no differentiation between NP-DPN and P-DPN. Additionally, we propose model 2 as an initial criterion for diagnosing DPN with a more prevalent SFN subtype in T1DM. Lastly, the study suggests that in mild stages of DPN, one type of nerve fiber (either small or large) is more susceptible to damage.
