Diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2), neuropatia periférica diabética, velocidade de condução nervosa, força muscular intrínseca do pé, estudo transversal

Resumo

Contexto: A diabetes mellitus tipo 2 reduz a velocidade de condução nervosa (VCN), levando à neuropatia diabética (ND) com manifestações sensoriais, motoras e autonómicas. O estudo dos preditores de VCN é necessário para melhorar a avaliação, o tratamento e o prognóstico dos doentes afetados.   Objectivo: Determinar preditores de VCN motora distal (nervos tibial e fibular) em doentes com ND.   Métodos: Quarenta e quatro doentes ambulatórios com ND foram incluídos no estudo. Para além dos dados demográficos, a VCN motora dos nervos tibial e fibular e a força do músculo flexor longo dos dedos foram avaliadas através de um dinamómetro. Foram realizadas correlações através do coeficiente de correlação de Pearson e regressão linear.   Resultados: A análise univariada mostrou que a força e o índice de massa corporal (IMC) estão associados à VCN motora do nervo peroneal, e a idade está associada à VCN motora do nervo tibial (p ≤ 0,2). O modelo de regressão não mostrou qualquer preditor significativo de cardiopatia congénita motora peroneal ou tibial (p < 0,05). Conclusão: A força isométrica dos flexores dos dedos, a idade e o IMC não são preditores independentes de cardiopatia congénita motora distal em doentes com pé diabético. São necessários estudos mais amplos para explorar possíveis métodos alternativos de rastreio clínico.
