Aims: Diabetes mellitus is a public health problem worldwide, with diabetic neuropathy (DN) being a common complication. Studies indicate that, neurons can develop insulin resistance (IR) and thus may notrespond to the neurotrophic properties of insulin. Although studies existon the relation between DN and glycemic exposure index (GEi), work on correlation of DN with IR is rare. This study focused on the prevalence of neuropathies in DM patients and usefulness of IR as a marker of DN.
