Values are expressed as means ±SD.
The multiple comparisons were carried out for the statistical analysis. DPN and the group without diabetes were compared once.
*There is significant difference between DPN and the group without diabetes (p<0.05).
DPN, diabetic peripheral neuropathy; FiCPDA, first common plantar artery; FoCPDA, fourth common plantar artery; FPPDA, first plantar toe proper artery; PTA, posterior tibial artery; SCPDA, second common plantar artery; TCPDA, third common plantar artery.
