Filter by:Painful diabetic neuropathy is the most common cause of neuropathic pain. 0.075% topical capsaicin has been used to treat the pain, but there is no data in lower concentration. This is the efficacy and safety of 0.025% topical capsaicin in treatment of painful diabetic polyneuropathy.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of eslicarbazepine acetate (ESL) as therapy for patients with painful diabetic neuropathy.
To assess clinical efficacy and safety of long-term orally administered thioctic acid in the treatment of diabetic polyneuropathy.
The purpose of this study is to describe the effect of a 10-week exercise program on nerve function and number of nerve fibers in the skin in the lower leg in people with diabetic neuropathy.
This study will determine the type and combination of exercise needed to rehabilitate the neuro-compromised diabetic Veteran. Guided exercise protocols may prove to be practical therapeutic options for the prophylactic management of diabetic subjects with neuropathy.
To show superior analgesic efficacy of OXN PR in addition to a patient's current dose of pregabalin compared to pregabalin alone.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if Metanx improves sensory neuropathy in persons with Type 2 diabetes. Metanx is a medical food available with a prescription from a physician. It consists of L-methylfolate, Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, and Methylcobalamin, which are the active forms of folate, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12, respectively. Subjects will be assigned to receive Metanx for 12 months. Baseline quantitative sensory testing will be done before the patient receives Metanx. Additional quantitative sensory testing will be done at 6 and 12 months to evaluate.
The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of 6 months of 4 g/day oral Lovaza® on endothelial-dependent and heat-induced vasodilation in type 2 diabetics with neuropathy and elevated triglyceride levels. Omega-3 fatty acids appear to exert beneficial effects on vascular function that are independent of the changes in serum triglycerides. The efficacy will be compared with a placebo given at the same duration. Efficacy of the drug will be evaluated after 3 and 6 months of treatment. This timeline should be adequate for evaluation of the primary neurophysiological endpoints. Previously, the investigators have demonstrated that it is feasible to pharmacologically alter nerve fiber density in as little as 18 weeks and that this correlates with subjective and objective measures of neurovascular function. The investigators are predicting an enhancement of post-ischemic hyperemia of the foot dorsum, where the dilative mechanism is primarily endothelium-dependent and a similar improvement in heat-induced hyperemia.
The purpose of this study is to measure the prevalence and severity of cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN), diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) which in non-diabetics is termed advanced nervous system (ANS) dysfunction, and autonomic dysfunction as well as the overall sympathovagal balance (SB) in the CEFH population of diabetic patients versus non-diabetic patients undergoing elective vitreoretinal surgery.
Patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), diabetic neuropathy (DN), complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), carpal tunnel syndrome, HIV neuropathy, idiopathic sensory neuropathy, or other peripheral neuropathy participated in a Phase IV clinical trial to assess the comparative efficacy and safety of Lidoderm monotherapy versus gabapentin monotherapy in treating a diverse group of peripheral neuropathic pain patients.
