Active clinical trials for "Diabetic Neuropathies"

Part A: Primary objective is to determine the effects of BIIB095 on nerve excitability in healthy participants. Secondary and exploratory objectives include determining the effects of BIIB095 on nerve excitability in diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN) and assessing the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of BIIB095. Part B (optional): Equivalent objectives are pursued for BIIB074.

This study examined the effects of balance exercises performed with the Biodex Balance System (BBS) on nerve conduction, sensory symptoms, and muscle strength in patients with diabetes-related neuropathy.

This particular trial is looking to compare the effectiveness of two types of foot bed/ sole materials used within diabetic footwear.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of a novel patient education strategy, compared to a standard diabetic foot education. The proposed diabetic foot care education uses personal computer-animated plantar pressure data to educate patients on why and how they should care for their feet.

Diabetic neuropathy is a progressive complication causing serious problems in 25-40% of diabetic patients. Anecdotal reports have indicated improvement with pulsatile IV insulin therapy in affected patients otherwise resistant to all conventional therapies. Significant complications produce painful peripheral dysesthesias, loss of sensation and gastroparesis. This study is designed to test the effectiveness of pulsatile IV insulin therapy on diabetic neuropathy.

This study evaluated the effect of joint position sense on compliance with the prosthesis, balance and functional performance in individuals with lower extremity amputation due to diabetic polyneuropathy. Study group consisted of 16 subjects with unilateral transtibial amputation due to diabetic polyneuropathy and control group consisted of 16 subjects with unilateral transtibial amputation due to traumatic reasons.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of neuropathic pain due to type 2 diabetes on balance and gait. The study is a prospective controlled study. The study is being carried out at the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Center Gait Analysis Laboratory Unit in Turkey. Individuals diagnosed with neuropathic pain due to Type 2 Diabetes and individuals with diabetes without neuropathic pain are included in the study by clinical examination and tests by a physician. At the same time, healthy individuals are participating as the control group. There will 3 groups in the study : Group 1: Individuals diagnosed with neuropathic pain due to type 2 diabetes (n=14) Group 2: Individuals with type 2 diabetes but no neuropathic pain (n=14) Group 3: Healthy control group (n=14) Assessments: Individual and clinical characteristics of individuals: age, gender, height, body weight, marital status, education level, duration of complaints, and dominant side. Douleur Neuropathique en 4 questions (DN4) Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs (LANSS) Pain Questionnaire Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Gait analysis Static and dynamic balance The data will be analyzed using the statistical program for social sciences (SPSS) version 21.0 (IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.). The data will be expressed as mean standard deviation (X±SD) and number (n%). The homogeneity of the groups will be evaluated with the Levene Test. Balance, plantar pressure, and walking values between the groups will be compared using the Kruskal Wallis Test. All the statistical analyses will be set a priori at an alpha level of p<0.05.

The hypothesis of this Phase 2 study is that at least 1 dose regimen of DS-1971a will demonstrate clinical superiority to placebo in managing pain associated with DPNP, and will be generally well tolerated.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intranasal insulin in people with type 1 diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy and to determine whether intranasal insulin is effective in slowing the progression of diabetic neuropathy.

This study evaluated the spatio-temporal gait parameters and gait symmetry in individuals with lower extremity burn injury due to diabetic polyneuropathy. Study group consisted of 14 subjects with unilateral lower extremity burn injuries due to diabetic polyneuropathy and control group consisted of 14 subjects with only diabetic polyneuropathy.
