Sensory nerve fiber conduction velocity is unaffected in diabetic mice

	Control (n = 99)		Diabetic (n = 96)
	Average	n	Average	n
Slowly adapting Aβ	16.5 ± 1.1	24	16.4 ± 1.6	11
Rapidly adapting Aβ	17.1 ± 1.1	20	16.4 ± 1.5	9
Aδ A-mechanoreceptor	5.3 ± 0.3	30	4.6 ± 0.4	43
Aδ down hair	5.5 ± 0.8	14	6.6 ± 0.5	13
C-fiber	0.6 ± 0.0	11	0.6 ± 0.0	20

Values are conduction velocities (in m/s); n, number of nerve fibers. Average conduction velocities for nerve fiber subtypes in diabetic and nondiabetic mice are shown. Subtypes were compared using Student's t-tests.
