Diabetic dermadromes constitute a group of cutaneous conditions commonly seen in people with diabetes with longstanding disease. [1] Conditions included in this group are: [1] [2] Acral dry gangrene; Carotenosis; Diabetic dermopathy; Diabetic bulla; Diabetic cheiroarthropathy; Malum perforans; Necrobiosis lipoidica
Diabetic dermopathy is a type of skin lesion usually seen in people with diabetes mellitus.It is characterized by dull-red papules that progress to well-circumscribed, small, round, atrophic hyperpigmented skin lesions usually on the shins.
Diabetic cheiroarthropathy, also known as diabetic stiff hand syndrome or limited joint mobility syndrome, is a cutaneous condition characterized by waxy, thickened skin and limited joint mobility of the hands and fingers, leading to flexion contractures, a condition associated with diabetes mellitus [1]: 681 and it is observed in roughly 30% of diabetic patients with longstanding disease.
Dermopathy can refer to one of several diseases: Diabetic dermopathy; Graves' dermopathy, or infiltrative dermopathy; Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy (NFD)
A diabetic bulla, also known as bullosis diabeticorum, or bullous eruption of diabetes mellitus, is a cutaneous condition characterized by a noninflammatory, spontaneous, painless blister, often in acral locations (peripheral body parts, such as feet, toes, hands, fingers, ears or nose), seen in diabetic patients.

The PPARGC1A gene regulates genes involved in energy metabolism. [1] [2] Since type 2 diabetes is characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia as a result of impaired pancreatic beta cell function [3] and insulin resistance in peripheral tissues, [4] it was thought that the gene might be downregulated in type 2 diabetes patients through DNA methylation.
