NCT07317284
This study aims: * To compare conventional diabetic neuropathy screening techniques with user-friendly technological equipment; * To evaluate the effects of the combined application of laser and therapeutic ultrasound in the treatment of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) in its early stages, aiming to prevent severe complications, such as the development of diabetic foot. Two groups were formed: Treatment group and placebo group. 24 sessions were performed (twice a week, on alternate days). It is concluded that the combined treatment with laser and therapeutic ultrasound for diabetic peripheral neuropathy promotes a significant reduction in symptoms and improvement in sensitivity in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
NCT06463015
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound (US)-guided posterior tibial nerve pulsed radiofrequency (PTN PRF) in the treatment of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPNP) refractory to conservative treatments. For this evaluation, the visual analog scale (VAS), PainDETECT neuropathic pain scores, and Jenkins Sleep Scale (JSS) will be used before and after the PTN PRF.
NCT05558878
A prospective, randomized, controlled study will be conducted at Department of Endocrinology, Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University, assessing the efficacy of Ambroxol addition on the clinical outcome and inflammatory markers in Diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients
NCT04253860
Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial. Patients with diabetic neuropathy will be randomly assigned to treatment with either TENS or TENS sham three times a week during 90 days. Clinical determinations are: pain, levesls of TNF-alpha, IL-6 and RPC-us
NCT04841720
This study is a single-center, open, single-arm study, conducted in healthy Chinese populations, and plans to enroll 22 healthy adult subjects (the ratio of either sex is not less than 1/3).
NCT03847779
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).
NCT03455543
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.
NCT03907189
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.
NCT03440203
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.
