Abstract

In today's world, science has progressed significantly, yet most people are still unaware of diabetes. Lack of obesity, physical work, and lifestyle changes are the main factors. Diabetes is becoming more common all around the globe. Type 2 diabetes may go unnoticed for years, resulting in serious consequences and high healthcare expenses. The goal of this study is to look at a wide range of studies in which the autonomic function of diabetic people has been studied with the help of various autonomic function tests (AFTs). AFT is a non-invasive approach to assessing patients for testing sympathetic and parasympathetic responses to stimuli. AFT findings give us comprehensive knowledge of the autonomic physiology reactions in normal and in autonomic diseases like diabetes. This review will concentrate on AFTs that are scientifically valid, trustworthy, and clinically beneficial, according to experts.
