Abstract

Small nerve fibres are important when studying diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) as they could be first affected. However, assessing their integrity and function adequately remains a major challenge. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between different degrees of DPN, the presence of neuropathic pain (NP), and the intensity of the axon-reflex flare response provoked by epidermal histamine.
