This study has identified correlation between markers of axonal membrane function and structural abnormalities in peripheral nerves of type 1 diabetes patients. The differential relationship in nerve function and structure between type 1 and type 2 diabetes provides clinical evidence that different pathophysiological mechanisms underlie the development of neuropathy in these patient groups.
