• Diabetic somatic neuropathies. (2004, background): “The clinical relevance of an effect on motor but not sensory nerve function is questionable, especially as the latter is primarily responsible for the most common manifestations of human DN: severe pain and the insensate extremity, leading to ulceration and eventual amputation (52).”
• Comprehensive foot examination and risk assessment. A report of the Task Force of the Foot Care Interest Group of the American Diabetes Association, with endorsement by the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists. (2008, background): “Screening for sensory loss with the 10-g monofilament is in widespread use across the world, and its efficacy in this regard has been confirmed in a number of trials, including the recent Seattle Diabetic Foot Study (4,21,23,24).”
• High prevalence of ischaemia, infection and serious comorbidity in patients with diabetic foot disease in Europe. Baseline results from the Eurodiale study (2006, background): “In addition, studies with long-term follow-up indicate that diabetic foot ulceration is a recurrent disease [34, 35].”
