Probably not a fit

Patients with insufficient cognitive levels, traumatic nerve injuries, or recent upper extremity surgeries may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates postural control, proprioception of the ankle and trunk, plantar sensation, and cognitive status in individuals diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. Participants aged 18-65 will undergo various assessments, including balance tests under different conditions and sensory evaluations. The results will be compared to those of healthy controls to understand the impact of Type 2 diabetes on these functions.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved understanding and management of balance and sensory issues in patients with Type 2 diabetes.

How similar studies have gone: While similar studies have explored aspects of proprioception and balance in diabetes, this specific approach focusing on multiple sensory and cognitive assessments is relatively novel.
