Abstract
Muscle tone, defined as passive resistance in the tested range, in DPN patients was shown to be decreased. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the velocity-dependent component. The decrease did not correlate with the decrease in NCV and could not be detected by the conventional manual pendulum test performed at the bedside.
