Diabetic Sensorimotor Polyneuropathy Severity Classification Using Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System
Published 2021“…The proposed classifier was used to classify the Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (EDIC) clinical trial patients and observed that in the first, eighth, and nineteenth EDIC years 18.31%, 39.45%, and 59.14% patients had different levels of DSPN. This study also investigates the changes in muscle activity during gait from three different lower limb muscles (vastus lateralis (VL), tibialis anterior (TA), and gastrocnemius medialis (GM)) electromyography (EMG) of DSPN patients with different severity levels classified by the proposed classifier and observed that VL and GM muscles show an increase in delay for activation peak and decrease in peak magnitude during gait with the progression of DSPN severity. …”
