|5. |Title of the Topic |“A COMPARITIVE STUDY OF VISUAL EVOKED POTENTIAL AND EVENT RELATED |
| | |POTENTIAL P300 IN DIABETICS AND AGE MATCHED CONTROLS.” |
|6. |Brief resume of the intended work: |
| |6.1 Need for the study: |
| |Once regarded as a single disease entity, diabetes is now seen as a heterogenous group of diseases, characterised by a state of |
| |chronic hyperglycemia resulting from a diversity of aetiologies, environmental and genetics acting jointly.1 |
| |Diabetes mellitus refers to a group of common metabolic disorders that share the phenotype of hyperglycemia.1 The worldwide |
| |prevalence of diabetes has risen dramatically over the past two decades from an estimated 30million cases in 1985 to 285million |
| |in 2010.2Prevalance in adults is found to be 2.4% in rural and 4-11.6% in urban dwellers.1 |
| |Long standing metabolic derangement is associated with functional and structural changes in many organs, particularly vascular |
| |system. These characteristically seen in eye, kidney and nervous system. Hyperglycemia which, if untreated, is associated with |
| |significant risk of microvascular disease, and in particular diabetic retinopathy.3Nervous system involvement in diabetes has |
| |been amply documented. Important detectable changes in the higher functions appear to occur frequently in diabetics than |
| |commonly believed.4 |
| |Hence present study was conducted with an aim to observe VEPs and P300 abnormalities in diabetics of both sexes in comparison |
| |with a control group. |
| | |
| |6.2 Review of literature : |
| |A Study of Visual Evoked Potential Changes in Diabetes Mellitus shows that the mean P100 latencies in diabetics were |
| |significantly prolonged compared to controls. Similarly the P100 latencies recorded for individual eyes were also significantly |
| |delayed in diabetics. The interlatency difference in P100 latencies was also more in diabetics. The N75 amplitudes in diabetics |
| |had a lower mean value compared to controls. P100 amplitudes in test groups had a mean value lower than mean of controls. The |
| |delayed P100 latencies showed a positive correlation with the duration of disease. It also showed correlation with metabolic |
| |control of diabetes.5 |
| |A Study of Visual Evoked Potentials in Diabetic patients shows that P100 wave latencies were significantly longer in diabetic |
| |patients than those of the control group.45% had P100 wave latencies above normal range. Also significant positive correlation|
| |between P100 wave latency and duration of diabetes mellitus was found.6 |
| |A Study of Visual Evoked potentials in Patients with Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus shows, the mean value of N70 latency increased in |
| |all diabetic groups compared to that of healthy subjects. P100 latency was delayed in all diabetic groups as compared to that |
| |in healthy subjects. The mean values of the N70-P100 and the N70-P100 amplitudes showed a significant decrease in all diabetic |
| |patients with a duration of more than 10yrs.7 |
| |A Study of Effect of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus On Cognitive Functions By Event Related Potential P300 shows that test group had |
| |significantly higher P300 latency than control group. Test group had significantly decreased P300 amplitude than control group.8|
| |A Study of Neurophysiological evidence for altered higher brain functions in NIDDM shows that, Diabetic patients had |
| |significantly longer P300 latencies than control subjects. There was a trend toward longer P300 latencies in diabetic patients |
| |with retinopathy and in those with HbA1 of ≥10%.9 |
| | |
| | |
| |6.3. Objectives of the study: |
| |The present study was conducted to observe the pattern reversal stimulation in a group of subjects with NIDDM and IDDM without |
| |retinopathy and with normal visual acuity at baseline. The aim was to find whether the VEP-PR latencies are altered in diabetics|
| |or not and if altered whether it shows any correlation with the duration of diabetes in both sexes in comparison with control |
| |group. |
| |Also the study was conducted to investigate the influence of diabetes mellitus on the cognitive function as assessed by Event |
| |related potential P300 . |
