Abstract：
:The functional study of visual pathways by means of pattern reversals VEPs (visual evoked potentials) was used as a noninvasive method in the study of diabetic patients, but the correlations between alterations in VEPs and the involvement of peripheral nervous system were not explored. Among 35 diabetic patients not suffering from retinopathy, we tested early deteriorations in visual pathways by means of pattern reversals VEPs and we considered similarities between these alterations, clinical metabolic parameters of the disease and clinical and paraclinical aspects of polyneuropathy (PNP). Four of these patients were insulin-dependent and 31 non-insulin-dependent, all with normal electroretinography and fluorangiography. Monitoring control of diabetes was performed by measuring hemoglobin HbA1. The control group was composed of 35 healthy subjects with normal neurologic and ophthalmologic examinations and normal visual acuity. In all subjects we tested four peripheral nerve conduction velocities (PNCV) (sensory and motor conduction of median nerve, motor conduction of peroneal nerve, anthidromic sensory conduction of sural nerve) diabetic patients were distributed in two groups according to the presence (group A, 15 patients) or absence (group B, 20 patients) of polyneuropathy. Pattern reversals PEVs were recorded after mono and binocular stimulation; screen was 25 x 18 cm with black and white check board pattern, check size 1.1 cm. Subject-to-stimulus distance was 1 m, corresponded to a visual angle of 38 degrees. Active electrode were located in Oz, O1 and O2, reference electrode in Fz.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
