Reference: NDFS
DFS, diabetic foot syndrome; RHI, reactive hyperemia index; MMSE, Mini Mental State Examination; RMSSD, root mean square of the successive differences; HF, high frequency
LF/HF, low frequency/high frequency; NDFS, non diabetic foot syndrome: diabetic subjects without foot ulcerations
