Research suggests that diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is related to plasma fibrinogen (Fib) concentrations, although its correlation with Fib function has not been reported. Here, the k value and angle α, reflecting the plasma Fib function, were used to analyse its correlation with DPN, and th...
