title: Impaired glucose tolerance is associated with postganglionic sudomotor impairment.
abstract: We compared quantitative sudomotor axon-reflex test responses in persons with normal and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). Responses were significantly impaired in those with IGT, which may be indicative of early distal small fiber neuropathy.
