Other are a result of definite choroidal, retinal, optic nerve, visual sensory pathways damage, to wit: central retinal artery or branch central retinal artery occlusion, ischemic optic
neuropathy
, unilateral venous-stasis retinopathy, ischemic ocular syndrome, contralateral homonymous hemianopias and quadrantanopias.
Various ophthalmologic disorders as an isolated independent manifestation or in combination with concomitant neurologic symptomatology can be observed in patients with carotid occlusive disease (carotid stenosis or thrombosis). Some of these symptoms are transient like amaurosis fugax (transient monocular blindness), which is very frequent predictor of the carotid occlusive disease.
Other are a result of definite choroidal, retinal, optic nerve, visual sensory pathways damage, to wit: central retinal artery or branch central retinal artery occlusion, ischemic optic neuropathy, unilateral venous-stasis retinopathy, ischemic ocular syndrome, contralateral homonymous hemianopias and quadrantanopias.
Their exact interpretation, especially of the transient ophthalmologic symptoms, supports the early diagnosis of carotid pathology and prevents the late definite neurologic and ophthalmologic complications.

Paraneoplastic neuropathies are rare diseases related to underlying neoplasma where immunological mechanisms are involved – immune response to onconeural antigens. Many anti-neuronal antibodies have been identified but most of them are not specific except for anti-Hu-antibodies.
Subacute sensory neuronopathy is the most frequent presentation of paraneoplastic neuropathies, but sensory-motor neuropathy, autonomic neuropathy and mononeuritis multiplex with vasculitis have been also described.
Sometimes the diagnosis is very difficult and includes different imaging studies, laboratory, electromyographic and histologic tests. Diagnostic criteria have been established and divide the patients into two groups: with definite and with probable diagnosis. The treatment of these diseases is complex and depends on the characteristics of primary neoplasm and neuropathy.

They are characterized by imbalance between endothelial-derived vasodilators and constrictors and plays an important role in pathogenesis of diabetic microangiopathy and
neuropathy
[18].
Up to 75% of patients with diabetes mellitus die from vascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction plays an early (probably even preceding manifested symptoms of diabetes) and important role in this process [2, 7]. Endothelial cells between blood and tissues produce many autocrine and paracrine substances participating in the regulation of vascular tone and local control of blood flow and homeostasis [3, 35]. Endothelial dysfunction might be at the same time the reason and the result of insulin resistance syndrome [25, 38]. Endothelial dysfunction and/or damage are connected to increased cardiovascular risk and an early sign of atherosclerotic process [5, 36].

might induce increased blood shunting through skin arterio-venular anastomoses and to disturb nutritious capillary circulation [4, 11, 31].
Our study established increased values of skin perfusion in patients with diabetes mellitus. Skin microvascular blood flow in the limbs at normal temperature pass through arterio-venular shunts and by-passes nutritious capillary bed inducing capillary tissue ischemia [4, 11, 29].
Autonomic neuropathy might induce increased blood shunting through skin arterio-venular anastomoses and to disturb nutritious capillary circulation [4, 11, 31].
Early in the course of the disease microvascular perfusion at rest is increased [18, 29]. In condition of stress – tissue damage or a period of arterial occlusion restricted hyperemic response is observed [26, 28]. Increased skin microvascular perfusion is connected with poor glycemic control [13, 15, 34].

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a socially important disease leading to early (hypoglycemia and ketoacidosis) and late complications.
The late complications are macrovascular (cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases) and microvascular (diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy).
The rate of diabetic neuropathy varies from 16% to 50% in patients with different types of DM [3, 11, 24]. The main risk factors (RF) for its appearance are duration of DM and glicemic control. Important additional factors could be arterial hypertension, hyperlypidemia, cigarette smoking, age etc [6].

taken alone.
The patients with type 1 DM were considerably younger than the others. The patients with type 2 DM on oral medication were with the shortest DM duration and these with type 2 DM on insulin – the longest disease duration. In all three groups the male predominated. The lowest C-peptide and the highest morning blood sugar levels were found in patients with type 1 DM. The lowest HbA1c levels were measured in patients with type 2 DM on oral therapy, statistically significant in relation to other two groups.

In patients with type 1 DM low levels of Cpeptide, associated with specific structural defects and progression of the
neuropathy
have been detected.
In patients with type 1 DM low levels of Cpeptide, associated with specific structural defects and progression of the neuropathy have been detected.
Long-lasting clinical studies have proven that patients with type 1 DM having a small amount of endogenous C-peptide and preserved, insulin secretion are less susceptible to late diabetic complications – neuropathy, retinopathy and nephropathy.

The sympathetic activity was increased in the patients with scleroderma. A state of sympathetic arousal is suggested because of a reliable reduction of heart rate variability [16].

lf the optic nerve is affected by compression, clinical sigs of optic neuropathy may occur, such as reduced visual acuity, abnormal color vision, and relative afferent papillary defect [1, 2].
ln this case, the patient presented with clinical features consistent with an orbital process. Before additional diagnostics, we suspected Tolosa-Hunt syndrome, but after the MRl we diverted the examination to SOVT. MRl is sensitive even in early stages of the disease, and is recommended when there is a suspicion of SOVT or cavernous sinus thrombosis. MRl may demonstrate a dilated SOV, and extraocular muscle enlargement [2, 9]. ln our case, orbital MR examination was of crucial importance for the diagnosis.

Diabetes mellitus is the fourth leading cause of global death by disease. More than 246 million people suffer from diabetes worldwide with a tendency this incidence to rise to 380 million by 2025.
The disease is associated with an increased relative risk for ischemic stroke, ischemic cardiac disease, chronic insufficiency of the lower extremities and chronic microvascular complications as retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy [19].

Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is the most frequent complication.
It affects 22,5% то 28,5% of all diabetic patients worldwide, and on national scale the morbidity reaches 50-70% of the affected patients [14]. Тhe feet and legs are often affected first, followed by hands and arms. Signs and symptoms of peripheral neuropathy are often worse at night, and may include: numbness or reduced ability to feel pain or temperature changes; a tingling or burning sensation; sharp pains or cramps; increased sensitivity to touch for some people, even the weight of a bed sheet can be agonizing; muscle weakness; loss of reflexes, especially Achilles’; loss of balance and coordination; serious foot problems, such as ulcers, infections, deformities, and bone and joint pain [12].

Based on the indicated static balance disturbances, the principal recommendations for PT effect on sensory ataxia in
neuropathy
are aimed at improving proprioreception by excluding or destabilizing the visual analyzer when the patient is standing on a solid basis [9].
In patients with DN, balance is impaired as a result of sensory disturbances that are largely offset by the visual analyzer and impaired biomechanical balance factors (center of gravity, line of gravity, weight-bearing area and stability limits), due to muscle weakness in the distal parts of the lower limbs, decreased movement of the ankle joint and pain [17].

Often complications are the first manifestation of carbohydrate metabolism changes: cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events, retinopathy, neuropathy, extremity vascular disease and others.
All this requires search of a reliable method for screening and early detection of diabetes and prediabetes. This will give the opportunity for prophylaxis and delay of early and late complications and their consequences, and for regulation of health care expenses [7].
