Diabetic neuropathy is very common, affecting up to 50 % of all diabetic patients. It can result in disabling neuropathic pain, lower extremity amputations and troublesome autonomic neuropathies. With the rising incidence of diabetes the prevalence of neuropathy is also likely to increase. This pocketbook discusses the condition in depth.

Peripheral Neuropathy offers an update on few of the hottest topics of diagnose, treatment and rehabilitation of peripheral nerve injuries. The book is composed of five chapters, each addressing a different topic, ranging from an analysis of the heightened risk of peripheral nerve injury in todays modern societies and what this signifies for the need in taking decisive action to prevent an increase in the numbers of disabled people, to the description of surgical procedures in pediatric patients. The role of regenerative medicine, the development of novel rehabilitative strategies, and the importance of peripheral neuropathy in diabetes are additional topics covered in the book. By reading this book the reader will be offered a general overview of current research and clinical practice in peripheral neuropathys field.

More than half of all patients with diabetes develop neuropathic disorders affecting the distal sensory and/or motor nerves, or autonomic or cranial nerve functions. Glycemic control can decrease the incidence of neuropathy but is not adequate alone to prevent or treat the disease. This chapter introduces diabetic neuropathy with a morphological description of the disease then describes our current understanding of metabolic and molecular mechanisms that contribute to neurovascular dysfunctions. Key mechanisms include glucose and lipid imbalances and insulin resistance that are interconnected via oxidative stress, inflammation, and altered gene expression. These complex interactions should be considered for the development of new treatment strategies against the onset or progression of neuropathy. Advances in understanding the combined metabolic stressors and the novel study of epigenetics suggest new therapeutic targets to combat this morbid and intractable disease affecting millions of patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.
