Abstract

Limited joint mobility was diagnosed in 42.9% of Type I and 37.3% of Type II diabetic patients. Abnormally thick skin was detected in 31.4% of Type I and 33.7% of Type II diabetic patients. Skin abnormalities were observed mainly in patients with L.J.M. There was a high prevalence of hand flexor tendon abnormalities (18.6%). Decreased range of shoulders and hips and flexor tendon abnormalities were significantly more common in patients with LJM. No significant association was found between LJM and grip strength, joint complaints, family history of rheumatic diseases, hypoglycemic attacks, cardiovascular diseases and autonomic neuropathy.
