Filter by:This study is designed to provide the treatment plan for moxibustion for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and provide a reference for clinical moxibustion for DPN. The patients will be randomly assigned to three clinical centers each center 44, then they will be distributed equally into 4 groups, which include the conventional treatment group and the moxibustion different minutes (5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes) per point group. The conventional treatment group will receive mecobalamin tablets and alpha-lipoic acid tablets for four weeks in conjunction with the patient's daily treatment (basal drug treatment for patients with combined hypertension and hyperlipidaemia). The frequency of moxibustion treatment is twice a week for 4 weeks. The outcomes were evaluated in the baseline period (the day before grouping), the treatment period (end of the 8th treatment) and the follow-up period (2 weeks after the end of treatment). The results of this study are expected to confirm the optimal amount of moxibustion for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuralgia and to observe the efficacy of moxibustion in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuralgia. It provides a reference for the clinical therapeutic operation standardization of moxibustion.
This is a prospective randomized control trial. Participants enrolled into the study will be randomized into one of three groups, two of which are treatment groups and the third is a control group. A time course of measurements before and after spinal cord stimulation (SCS) treatment (where applicable) will assess pain, DPN severity, small fiber nerve activity, and metabolic health markers.
The aim of this study is to show how whole body vibration training practiced for 12 weeks affects the levels of inflammatory biomarkers such as C reactive protein (CRP) and, interleukin-6 (IL-6), in Type 2 diabetic patients (T2DM) with and without peripheral neuropathy.
This study primarily seeks to evaluate dysfunction of small blood vessels and their linkage to dysfunction of nerves in people with Type 2 Diabetes. The purpose of this research is to explore some of the underlying pathophysiology of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, particularly painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The pain experienced by individuals with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy is severe and associated with low quality of life. The pain does not typically respond well to pharmacological management. The processes underpinning the sources of pain are poorly understood, consequently only around a third of patients benefit from existing treatments. Some historic research on the sources of pain suggest the retention of the ability to reduce blood flow in small vessels may underpin these pain pathways. This research aims to explore this possibility, looking at the nerve-linked response in small vessels with a flickering light within the eye. Participants will complete three or four questionnaires: one demographic, two to aid with stratifying participants into groups concerning symptoms of neuropathy and an additional questionnaire if participants are stratified to the painful DPN group. A basic neurological examination of the feet will follow. Basic measurements of height, weight and blood pressure will be recorded for each participant. The primary sites of measurement of this small vessel dysfunction will be the eye and the foot investigated in a non-invasive manner. A bright flickering light will be shone into participants eyes, with the reaction of small vessels recorded. Sensors will also be placed on the feet and chest of participants and warmed to ~44C. An image will be taken of participants eyes to measure nerve layer thickness and an area of skin on the forearm will be illuminated to measure for levels of a metabolic marker. A picture of the eye will also be taken to determine nerve layer thickness.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the standard of care revascularization of the lower extremity with the addition of revascularization of the lateral plantar artery and anterior pedal loop of the foot as treatment for diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
to investigate the effect of high tone external muscle stimulation (HTEMS) on endothelial dysfunction and walking parameters in peripheral vascular disease.
A Multiple Doses Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics (Including Food Effect) of SYHA1402 in Healthy Subjects.
The study will evaluate whether an experimental medical device that emits a series of brief, intense magnetic pulse will relieve foot pain from Diabetic Neuropathy (DN) if used weekly for a month
The aim of the study is to assess the effect of Rotating Magnetic Therapy on Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy using Nerve conduction velocity examination.
Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is the most common complication of diabetes, affecting almost 50% of people with diabetes over the course of their lives. Symptoms vary from numbness to burning, aching and hypersensitivity in the lower limbs, indicative of sensory nerve loss. Motor neurons can also be affected, leading to muscle weakness and mobility issues, thus preventing patients from engaging in daily routines. Further sequelae include foot ulceration and Charcot neuroarthropathy, which are risk factors for lower limb amputation and mortality. In the United Kingdom, the annual costs of DN alone exceed £300 million, with further complications expected to cost an additional £1 billion. Currently, management strategies for DN focus on prevention and pain management. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a novel nonpharmacological intervention for people with DN. NMES is the application of electrical impulses which are of sufficiency intensity to improve artificial contraction of the muscle tissue and may help with DN by improving nerve conductivity through direct stimulation of the nerves.
