Filter by:The trial used single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose study. The trial planned to enroll sixty-two healthy volunteers. The subjects were allocated to seven dose groups, including 25 mg (4+2), 50 mg (8+2), 100 mg (8+2), 200 mg (8+2), 400 mg (8+2), 800 mg (6+2) and 1200 mg (6+2). Each dose group was allocated test drugs and placebos according to the proportion of subjects in the brackets mentioned above.
This research study aims to better understand how the plantar temperature data collected by the Podimetrics RTM System corresponds to physical activity level in subjects.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of high tone power therapy on neurophysiological measures and function outcome in patients with diabetic neuropathy.
Microcirculatory flow is subject to cyclic changes under the influence of heart rate, respiration, myogenic activity, neurogenic factors and endothelial factors. Microcirculatory oscillations (vasomotion) contribute significantly to tissue perfusion. Vasomotion analysis allowed to discriminate normoglycemic subjects, prediabetic subjects and diabetic subjects. Furthermore, changes in vasomotion can precede the emergence of global signs of microangiopathy complications in type 2 diabetes. In fact, few studies reported impaired vasomotion in type 2 diabetes with peripheral neuropathy. Vasomotion analysis after vasodilator (6-min walking test and hyperthermia) and after vasoconstrictor (foot lowering) stimulus could be an effective diagnostic tool to sharpen the diagnostic. Objectives and Methodology: to study vasomotion at baseline and after exercise, hyperthermia and foot lowering within 3 groups of patients: diabetic without peripheral neuropathy, diabetic with subclinical peripheral neuropathy and diabetic with peripheral neuropathy and one group of sex- age- and body mass index-matched healthy control subjects. All the subjects will benefit from a clinical, anthropometric, level of physical activity and biological evaluations. Type 2 diabetes participants will benefit from neuropathy evaluation. In addition, cutaneous microcirculation (perfusion and vasomotion) by means of Laser Doppler Flowmetry and Laser Speckle Imaging will be recorded at rest and after different stimuli (exercise, hyperthermia and foot lowering).
This study evaluates the effects of a physiotherapy protocol (manual therapy and exercise) in the prevention of diabetic foot ulcers in patients with diabetic neuropathy. A group of participants will receive a physiotherapy protocol added to their usual medical treatment and the other group will not receive physiotherapy treatment.
At the current time there is no effective disease modifying therapy for diabetic neuropathy (DN). The proposed study design employs a quantifiable early measure of DN, intraepidermal nerve fiber density (IENFD), allowing for accurate assessment of actual nerve fiber density. Preclinical data supports the use of Niagen® (3-(Aminocarbonyl)-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl-pyridinium chloride - NR) as a potential therapy for diabetic neuropathy. Phase I data indicates safety in humans. This study seeks to investigate the use of Niagen® (NR) as a potential treatment for diabetic neuropathy in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus or impaired glucose tolerance over a 6 month period. The endpoint measures in addition to the IENFD with determine changes in clinical and electrophysiological outcomes, quality of life and biochemical measures.
This study evaluated the effects of interactive video game-based exercise (IVGB) on balance in diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy. Twenty-four patients were randomly assigned to two groups (12 participants per group). Group A received IVGB training for the first 6 weeks, with no exercise in the subsequent 6 weeks. Group B had no exercise for the first 6 weeks and then underwent IVGB training in the subsequent 6 weeks. Both subjective and objective measures were used to determine whether IVGB exercise improves balance function.
Part A of this trial is a multi-center, prospective, double-blinded, sham-controlled, randomized clinical trial. Part A will evaluate PEMF treatment compared to sham treatment in patients with painful diabetic distal symmetric peripheral neuropathy (DSPN) when treatment is administered 30 minutes twice daily through a 120-day period (4 months). Part B is a 8-month open-label active treatment extension period designed to collect longer-term data on pain, medication use, quality of life and safety (Part B).Part B of this trial is a an extension period upon completion of Part A.
The trend of diabetes prevalence was increased by comparing these two national surveys in 2009 and 2014. However, the studies only focused on the prevalence and risk of diabetes and non-communicable diseases in Myanmar. The study focused on the common complications of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) is rare. The studies in other countries showed high prevalence rate and under-diagnosis of DPN. Most of the patients with DPN did not complain about their symptoms because of without prominent symptoms. DPN is the major complication of diabetes. According to the international studies, DPN has the hidden epidemic and is the common causes which can lead to disability and decreased the quality of life in diabetes. Therefore, the study focused on the prevalence of DPN and its impact on the ADLs is obligatory as the descriptive study to explore the actual situation. Nursing care is not only for the patients in the hospital but also for the people in the community. Moreover, the nurses have to focus on all levels of prevention. Diabetes is the lifelong diseases and accessibility of health care for everyone with diabetes is a very important issue in the era with increased prevalence of diabetes. Therefore, we all have to focus not only on the primary prevention but also on the secondary and tertiary prevention of diabetes. The secondary and tertiary prevention in the diabetic patients also means the primary prevention of other diseases and disabilities (the complications of diabetes). For diabetic neuropathic patients, maintaining normal daily living is very important liked everyone. The objective of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of DPN and DPNP in type 2 diabetic patients and impact on the activities of daily living. The descriptive, cross-sectional study design will be used in this study. The inclusion criteria are the person aged over 25 years of age who had already diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus, taking any anti-glycemic treatment. The persons who are suffering from neuropathy and neuropathic pain other than diabetes, severe illness of diabetic patients, mental illness and alcoholism will be excluded from this study. The patients who meet the inclusion criteria and come to outpatient diabetic clinics at YGH, NOGH, EYGH, and WYGH will be chosen as a sample after obtaining informed consent. Data collection will be done at this outpatients diabetic clinic of these four hospitals. This study has already obtained ethical clearance from Nursing Science Ethical Review Committee, Graduate School of Health Sciences, Okayama University, Japan with the review number D1605. It will be carrying out after obtaining approval from Department of Medical Research, Myanmar. At the outset, informed consent will be obtained with detailed information about the purpose of research, the part they need to participate, possible benefits and their rights to withdraw.
Chronic obliterative arteriopathy of the inferior limbs is a frequent condition observed in diabetics. The later stages induce pain at rest and trophic disorders (ulcer, gangrene) that lead to chronic limb ischemia. Without possible surgical revascularization ,pain management and tissue healing are used to avoid amputation. Prevalence of diabetes is twice higher in Reunion Island than in metropolitan France. As a consequence, the rate co-morbobidities, such as chronic obliterative arteriopathy of the inferior limbs, is also increases. This study compares the efficiency of two analgesic treatments in diabetics with forefoot injuries.
