Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests whether a 12-week exercise program that works the trunk, hips, knees, and ankles can reduce symptoms and improve quality of life in people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Sixty-four adults with type 2 diabetes and nerve damage will be randomly assigned to either the full-leg program or a standard foot-and-ankle exercise routine. The goal is to see if the more comprehensive approach better eases nerve pain, improves balance, and reduces fear of falling.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
exercise program
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to reduce nerve pain and improve balance and quality of life for people with diabetic neuropathy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 64 participants. Exercise may not help everyone, and results may not apply to more active people or those with severe neuropathy.
