Diabetic polyneuropathy

This study tests whether injecting stem cells from umbilical cords into the legs can help people with moderate to severe diabetic nerve damage. 140 adults will get either stem cell shots plus standard care, or standard care alone, and be followed for 24 weeks. The goal is to see …

This study tests whether a 12-week program of supervised foot and ankle exercises can help people with diabetes who have nerve damage in their feet. The exercises are done in groups at primary care clinics. Researchers will measure changes in symptoms, foot movement, and quality …

This study is translating and testing a questionnaire called PainPREDICT for Thai-speaking people with diabetes. The goal is to create a mobile app that can screen for painful diabetic neuropathy, a common complication that causes nerve pain. Researchers will check if the Thai ve…

This study tests a device called Walkasins, worn on the lower legs, that vibrates to give sensory feedback about foot pressure. The goal is to see if using it daily for six months improves balance and walking in 200 adults aged 55+ with peripheral neuropathy. Participants will do…

This study tests two types of foot and ankle exercises to see which one better helps balance, walking, and fall risk in people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage in the feet). Researchers will compare exercises for the small muscles in the foot with 3D ankle-foot e…

This study tests whether adding peripheral magnetic stimulation to balance exercises can lower fall risk in older adults with diabetic polyneuropathy. Forty participants will receive either real or sham magnetic pulses to their feet while doing balance training. The goal is to se…

This study tests whether mirogabalin can reduce nerve pain in people with diabetes. 78 adults will take either mirogabalin or the standard drug pregabalin daily for 8 weeks. Researchers will measure pain levels, side effects, and quality of life to see if mirogabalin is a better …

This study tests if a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve can reduce pain, numbness, and tingling in people with diabetic nerve damage. Researchers will measure pain levels, nerve signals, and walking ability in 40 adults aged 45-60. The goal is to find a drug-fre…

This study looks at whether repairing blocked leg blood vessels within 48 hours helps heal foot ulcers in people with type 2 diabetes faster than waiting for a scheduled procedure. About 200 adults with diabetic foot sores will be randomly assigned to early or standard treatment.…

This study tests whether combining foot-ankle exercises with mindful walking can reduce pain, improve foot and ankle function, and boost quality of life in people with diabetic polyneuropathy. Thirty-eight adults aged 40-75 with confirmed diabetic nerve damage and moderate to sev…

This study aims to see if a quick bedside sensory test can predict which painkiller—pregabalin, duloxetine, or a placebo—works best for people with nerve pain in their feet. About 190 adults with diabetic, chemotherapy-related, or idiopathic nerve pain will try each treatment for…

This study is collecting information from 4,000 adults with peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage) to better understand the condition. Researchers will combine standard tests with nerve ultrasound to see if it helps diagnose and track the disease. No new treatments are being tested…

This study is collecting nerve samples and biofluids from 400 people with ALS or peripheral neuropathies to find biological markers for early diagnosis and disease tracking. By analyzing individual cells, researchers hope to identify molecular changes that happen before symptoms …

This study uses ultrasound to measure the size and appearance of leg nerves in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage (diabetic polyneuropathy). Researchers will then test how these nerve measurements relate to balance, walking, and daily life. The goal is to better un…
