Diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) is a prevalent and severe complication of Diabetes Mellitus (DM). When the autonomic regulation of the cardiovascular system is affected, it is referred to as cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN), the most critical subtype of DAN. Early diagnosis of CAN is crucial, as it can identify patients at elevated risk for cardiovascular complications. This study aimed to assess the Neuropad test's effectiveness, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy as a diagnostic tool for detecting DAN.
