Could special diabetic shoes increase fall risk?

NCT ID NCT02891928

Summary

This study aimed to find out if a specific type of shoe, called a 'rocker sole' shoe, affects balance in people with diabetes-related nerve damage (neuropathy). Researchers compared these special shoes to standard shoes in 25 participants. They measured how much a person's body swayed while standing to see if the shoe design impacted stability.
