Filter by:The planned study is a Randomized Controlled Monocentric Trial, which will provide evidence on whether early angiography in PTA readiness ("immediate treatment," within 48h) has advantages over the "standard of care", i.e., an elective procedure ("elective PTA") in terms of clinical endpoints such as wound healing and infection according to WiFI classification, amputation rate, "major adverse limb events" (MALE=amputation, reintervention of the vessel, death), but also systemic complications such as "major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events" (MACE=myocardial infarction, stroke, death, restenosis, severe cardiac and cerebrovascular complications). Furthermore, the impact of PTA on the local wound microbiome remains unclear. Altered microbiome composition in ulcers can lead to severe local and systemic infections and complications, including major amputations. Nevertheless, the specific significance of the wound microbiome composition in chronic ischemic ulcers in type 2 diabetes and the impact of PTA on the wound microbiome in type 2 diabetes is unclear. The exact timing for treating pAVD by revascularization in DFS after initial diagnosis is unknown and has yet to be fully understood.
Over the last years a rising medical need for treatment of chronic pain was identified. Based on previous findings indicating the pain modulating effects of cannabinoids in chronic pain disorders, this clinical trial investigates the efficacy and tolerability of the THC-focused nano endocannabinoid system modulator AP707 in patients with pain disorders due to diabetic polyneuropathy. Patients receive AP707 or placebo over the course of 14 weeks as an add-on to the standard of care. Changes in pain intensity, quality of life and sleep and others measures are monitored through different scales to assess the efficacy of AP707 in patients with chronic pain due to diabetic polyneuropathy.

Based on previous findings indicating the pain modulating effects of cannabinoids in chronic pain disorders, this clinical trial investigates the long term efficacy and tolerability of the THC-focused nano endocannabinoid system modulator AP707 in patients with pain disorders due to diabetic polyneuropathy. Patients receive AP707 or placebo over the course of 14 weeks as an add-on to the standard of care.

The project aims to investigate the validity, and reliability of outcome measures of muscle strength, functioning (gait, balance, and fine motor skills), physical activity, and patient-reported outcome measures of functioning (gait, balance, and fine motor skills), and daily living among patients with polyneuropathy. Further, the project aims to compare physical activity and patient-reported outcome measures of functioning (gait, balance, and fine motor skills), and daily living among patients with polyneuropathy with physical activity and patient-reported outcome measures of functioning (gait, balance, and fine motor skills) and daily living in healthy adults.
The main purpose of this study is to compare the change in pain intensity during treatment with a CGRP monoclonal antibody (eptinezumab) compared with placebo treatment in patients with painful diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN).
This is a controlled clinical trial with the aim to study the effects of electroacupuncture on neuropathic pain reduction, quality of life and changes in sensory and motor nerve conduction velocity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, beneficiaries of the familiar medical centers 20, 40 and 41 of the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, at north of Mexico City, in colaboration with the human acupuncture specialty of the Escuela Nacional de Medicina y Homeopatía, Instituto Politécnico Nacional, Mexico.
This study will be conducted to investigate the relationship between glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and nerve conduction studies (NCS) with gait performance in patients with DPN. 65 patients with type II DM with moderate polyneuropathy will participate in this study. Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) test will be done for each patient by using the Colorimeter device. Nerve conduction studies (NCS) will be performed for each patient by using the electromyography device to confirm the diagnosis of DPN. The neurophysiological functions of peripheral nerves including (The Common peroneal, Tibial, Sural, and Ulnar motor & sensory branches) will be measured. Spatiotemporal gait parameters (stride length, cadence& velocity) for all the patients will be assessed by two-dimension video-based motion analysis (2D).
This study is an experimental single centre study investigating the effect of VR on overall sleep quality and number of awakenings in patients with diabetic polyneuropathy.
Significant differences in the expression of individual Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF-15) proteins among Taiwanese harboring different mitochondrial genotypes are noted, and their blood serum levels also exhibited associations with diabetes. GDF-15 was originally discovered as an autocrine regulator of macrophage activation and shown to play important roles in fibrosis, malignancy, cardiovascular disease, glycemic control, and obesity. However, the relationship between GDF-15 and pre-diabetes and diabetes in Asian populations has yet to be fully investigated. Besides, any indirect associations between GDF-15 levels and diabetic complications remain unclear. The investigators aim to further investigate the role of GDF-15 levels in the initial diagnosis of diabetes, the monitoring of medication effectiveness and disease progression, and related complications such as diabetic nephropathy and neuropathy. The DNA isolated from the blood samples will be evaluated to determine individual mitochondria haplogroups, including variants located within the coding and control regions of the mitochondrial genome.
This study compares the efficacy of the ultrasound with fluoroscope in guidance of lumbar sympathetic block (LSB). The goals of the study are; 1) To show that US-guided LSB results in shorter performance time compared to fluoroscope-guided LSB, 2) To evaluate the efficacy and safety of US-guided LSB, and 3) To verify that US-guided LSB has similar success rates to fluoroscope-guided LSB. 50 patients who are supposed to undergo LSB due to sympathetically maintained pain, satisfy criteria of inclusion and exclusion, and voluntarily sign the informed consent will be enrolled.
