Simple exercises may boost nerve repair in diabetic neuropathy
NCT ID NCT07675720
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two exercise programs—combined aerobic and resistance training versus seated soleus push-ups—against standard care in people with type 2 diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Researchers will measure blood markers of nerve repair (BDNF, NGF, S100B) and assess changes in symptoms, balance, and quality of life over 8 weeks. The goal is to identify which exercise approach best supports nerve health and function.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
exercise (concurrent training or soleus push-ups)
What this could lead to
If effective, these exercises could offer a simple, drug-free way to support nerve repair and reduce symptoms of diabetic neuropathy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial measuring biological markers, not clinical outcomes. Results may not translate to meaningful symptom improvement.
