Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of vibrating insoles on vibration perception threshold (VPT) and balance of people with diabetic neuropathy.
This is a population-based study of type 2 diabetes patients with and without neuropathy recruited from the Danish National Type 2 Diabetes cohort (DD2). Perspective: The study will identify risk factors for developing diabetic polyneuropathy and painful diabetic polyneuropathy and provide information on the underlying mechanisms, which will hopefully contribute to significant improvements in the treatment and prevention of diabetic polyneuropathy in future.
The hypothesis of this study is that pregabalin, 150 mg bid, will reduce general daytime pain in patients diagnosed with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and that it will also reduce the level of pain associated with walking. Consequently, it is hypothesized that the reduction in pain will result in an increase in the amount of walking they do during the day, improvements in their gait, balance, risk of falls and sleep patterns.
The goal of this pilot study is to obtain preliminary data on the magnitude of the treatment effect of IVIG on the neuropathic pain and neuropathy severity associated with treatment induced neuropathy (TIND). The investigators hypothesize that immune globulin, administered intravenously (IVIG), will reduce the pain associated with treatment induced neuropathy and reduce the neuropathy severity. Treatment induced neuropathy in diabetes, is an iatrogenic complications of diabetes. The preliminary data will be used to power a larger treatment trial, and to aid the understanding of the mitigating factors in the treatment response.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the wearing of shoes "rocker sole" type prescribed in type 2 diabetics patients with neuropathy are responsible for disorders of equilibrium.
The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of Evoked Pain Training (EPT) and Drug/ Placebo Administration (DPA) training to increase subjects' ability to discriminate between active and placebo treatments in a double-blind crossover trial of a known analgesic, measured by standardized effect size, relative to untrained control subjects.
Evaluate the effectiveness of the Provant Therapy System compared to sham on pain sensitivity and nervous system response to various qualities of experimentally induced pain in the upper and lower extremities of subjects with painful peripheral diabetic neuropathy.
This is a double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study in which a total of 120 patients will be selected from a broad spectrum group of typical Americans (all demographics including various races and both genders as well as ages from 25-90) who have confirmed Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and suffer from mild to moderate lower extremity Peripheral Neuropathy. All patients will meet inclusion and/or exclusion criteria.
This is a human clinical study involving the isolation of autologous bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSC) and transfer to the vascular system and inferior 1/3 of the nasal passages in order to determine if such a treatment will provide improvement in neurologic function for patients with certain neurologic conditions. http://mdstemcells.com/nest/
The main objective of this trial is to investigate the effects of foot muscle strengthening in daily activity of patients with diabetic neuropathy.
