Associations of CPT values between distal extremities and bladder mucosa among diabetic women with UBD were examined by Pearson’s correlation analyses.

<p>(a) The 5 Hz CPT test values at the big toe were significantly associated with the 5 Hz CPT test values of bladder mucosa.(p<0.001) (b) No significant association between big toe and bladder mucosa at 250 Hz CPT values. (c) Significant association of 5 Hz CPT values between middle finger and bladder mucosa. (p<0.001) (d) No significant association noted at 250 Hz CPT values between middle finger and bladder mucosa.</p
