Sommario/riassunto

Diabetic Neuropathy and Clinical Practice aims to improve the pathophysiological understanding of the entire spectrum from sensory motor to autonomic diabetic neuropathy, its correlation with the symptoms, improving thereby the communication with the patient including prognostication and other tools that one should utilize to better management. It also emphasizes the need to regain the grip on the basic sciences of clinical medicine to deal with it better - Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry and Pathology and gives the necessary details. The volume aims at explaining what the clinicians need most to help patients and may not possess.
