This paper reports the determination of blood flow of the lower leg in 50 cases of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) using an XLJ-2 Bipolar Rheoencephalometry Impedance Rheogram. In patients with leg pain (but without obvious vascular pathological changes, 85 legs) the blood flow was decreased. In male patients the blood flow of the left leg (9 legs) was 3.28 +/- 0.47 ml/100ml.tissue.min (mean +/- S), while that in the right leg (11 legs) was 3.88 +/- 0.80; in females, the blood flow of the left leg (32 legs) was 2.72 +/- 0.8; while that in the right leg (33 legs) was 2.94 +/- 0.66. These figures were significantly (P less than 0.01-0.001) lower than those obtained from normals. In diabetic feet (15 painful legs) the decrease of blood flow of the lower leg was more apparent: it averaged 1.87 +/- 0.79 for the left leg (7 legs) and 2.66 +/- 0.87 for the right leg (5 legs) in male patients. The values were significantly different when compared with those of normals (P less than 0.001) or with those of the diabetic patients with leg pain (P less than 0.05). These results demonstrated that determination of the blood flow of the lower leg of diabetic patients might aid in early discovery of the abnormal changes of blood supply to the lower legs in diabetes mellitus and judge the degree of ischemia. Of the 50 cases of diabetics 32 were Qi-Yin deficiency with blood stasis while the remaining 18 cases were deficiency of both Yin and Yang with blood stasis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
