Filter by:This study will be conducted to compare the effects of hand and foot exercises on peripheral neuropathy and quality of life in breast cancer patients taking taxanes
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of modified otago exercises on joint position sense, balance and physical fitness parameters in individuals with diabetic neuropathy. In addition aim of to examine the effects of exercise on metabolic variables and to gain exercise awareness in diabetic individuals.
This study will compare two methods of electrical stimulation (alternating current and direct current) as an adjunctive therapy to treating peripheral neuropathy. Both types of electrical stimulation have been used in clinical practice for physical therapy, however direct current stimulation is much less common and there is less known about their impact on physical therapy outcomes. The aim of this project is to show the efficacy of a novel device, the Neubie direct current device, compared to traditional TENS unit, in clinical physical therapy treatment of neuropathy. Outcomes measured will include three methods of two-point discrimination, vibration sense, pain, and score on the modified Toronto Clinical Neuropathy scale.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of Withings WBS08 to screen small fiber neuropathy.
Cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and bilateral areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) is a late onset neurodegenerative disorder with a slowly progressive ataxia. It's genetic causative etiology with an autosomal recessive inheritance has a recent discovery. It is clinically characterized by impaired visually enhanced vestibulo-ocular reflex, although patients commonly present with imbalance as a main concern, associated with sensory complaints. It has been demonstrated that sensory impairment in CANVAS patients is due to degeneration of dorsal root with abnormal sensory nerve conduction. Previously defined diagnostic criteria included cerebellar atrophy on brain MRI, neuronopathy on electrophysiological studies and negative genetic testing for other inherited ataxia syndromes like Friedriech ataxia and spinal cerebellar ataxia (SCA). Peripheral nerve ultrasound is a noninvasive technique, able to identify abnormal peripheral nerves with underlying injuries and specific sonographic characteristics. Pelosi et al established that patients with CANVAS have a smaller nerve cross sectional area (CSA) compared to healthy individuals and/ or axonal neuropathies. The main objective of this study was to obtaine a detailed description of peripheral nerves in consecutive patients with CANVAS syndrome followed in theneurology department of the Universitary Hospital of Nimes (France), using conventional electrophysiology and peripheral nerve ultrasound.
Idiopathic facial nerve palsy (Bell's palsy) is caused by damage to the facial nerve at any site of the peripheral branches after the facial nucleus.Stellate ganglion block is inteneded to increase blood flow and promotes nerve regeneration.
This study is to see if applying red and violet low-level laser light can help to reduce foot pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy,
The purpose of this study is to explore the inter-device reliability between the NPi-200 and NPi-300.
Patients with ankylosing spondylitis were divided into 2 groups as anti-TNF and conventional therapy according to the treatments they were using for the last 5 years. Nerve conduction studies in the upper and lower extremities of the patients were compared.
Enzalutamide may lead to various adverse reactions. This study investigates reports of different neurological toxicities in the World Health Organization's (WHO) global database of individual safety case reports (VigiBase).
