Filter by:Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) occurs due to long standing hyperglycemia and associated metabolic derangements. Cognitive impairment is a common complication in diabetes mellitus. It is associated with a faster rate of cognitive decline.
The goal of this observational study is to explore the relationship between related blood indicators and diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN).
The goal of this observational study is to explore the relationship between related blood indicators and diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
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.
The aim of work is to study the clinical, electrodiagnostic and neurosonographic characteristics of diabetic patients with small fiber neuropathy in the Egyptian population, and to evaluate both the diagnostic and the prognostic impact of the studied factors on the neuropathy severity and quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to 1) examine the differences in walking function and movement patterns between individuals with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and healthy adults with no known conditions; 2) examine if receiving feedback on walking form will help change walking patterns; and 3) examine the feasibility, safety, and preliminary effects of walking training with feedback on walking function in individuals with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus. This can lead to painful and costly clinical sequelae such as foot ulcers, amputation, and neuropathic pain. There are several novel diagnostic methods available for complementary to clinical assessment and may help in the early detection of DPN. However, treatments for DPN and painful DPN are limited. We will conduct a pilot, single-center, randomized controlled trial in patients with DPN to verify the effect of the laser acupuncture on DPN. With designed inclusion and exclusion criteria, 30 eligible participants will be randomized with 1:1 allocation ratio to the following two groups:(1) the laser acupuncture group (N=15), (2) the sham laser acupuncture group (N=15). Each participant will receive 24 interventions within 8 weeks, three times per week. Participants follow the laser acupuncture protocol in our study. All participants will be clinically assessed by (1) Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI), (2) questionnaires (BPI(SF)-DPN) for diabetic neuropathic pain assessment, and (3) nerve conduction test. This research project will validate our novel preliminary findings demonstrating neuroprotective effects of laser acupuncture treatment. Importantly, our data are expected to elucidate how laser acupuncture induces neuroprotection in the clinical setting and provide a scientific base for developing new approaches in the treatment of DPN.
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common chronic complication of diabetes mellitus that has a considerable impact on quality of life, but there are few effective therapeutic strategies. The aim of this trial is to determine the efficacy and safety of manual acupuncture (MA) versus sham acupuncture (SA) for DPN.
Diabetes being a very prevalent condition results in various complications including neuropathy, which can impair various functional outcomes in patients including balance. Ankle proprioceptive training (APT) is an intervention that is used to tackle this problem. The study will compare APT with standard balance training in subjects with diabetic neuropathy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VX-548 doses in treating Painful DPN.
