Is the metabolic cost of walking higher in people with diabetes?
People with diabetes walk slower and display biomechanical gait alterations compared with controls, but it remains unknown whether the metabolic cost of walking (CoW) is elevated. The aim of this study was to investigate the CoW and the lower limb concentric joint work as a major determinant of the CoW, in patients with diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Thirty-one nondiabetic c...
متن کاملIncreased variability of continuous overground walking in neuropathic patients is only indirectly related to sensory loss.
The present study was conducted to determine if peripheral neuropathy leads to significant changes in locomotor variability. Fourteen patients with severe peripheral neuropathy and 12 gender-, age-, height-, and weight-matched non-diabetic controls participated. Sagittal plane angles of the right hip, knee, and ankle joints and tri-axial accelerations of the trunk were measured during 10 min of...
متن کاملPrevalence of Peripheral Neuropathy and its Related Factors in Diabetic Children, Neishabour City, Iran
Background One of themost common metabolic diseases is diabetes mellitus (DM), which its prevalence is growing trend. Early diagnose peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in early stages of patients with DM contributes to metabolic control and prevents severe complications. We aimed to determine the prevalence of peripheral neuropathy (PN) and its related factor in Diabetic children. Materials and Meth...
متن کاملVasculopathy associated with peripheral neuropathy in gait parameters of diabetic people
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus when glycemic levels are poorly controlled. Sometimes DPN is accompanied by vasculopathy (DPV), which can worsen the clinical prognosis. The aim of this study was to analyze the gait parameters of nondiabetic individuals and diabetic individuals with DPN with or without DPV. Method: The study included 68 individu...
متن کاملDiabetic Neuropathy and Gait: A Review
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a major sequela of diabetes mellitus and may have a detrimental effect on the gait of people with this complication. DPN causes a disruption in the body's sensorimotor system and is believed to affect up to 50% of patients with diabetes mellitus, dependent on the duration of diabetes. It has a major effect on morbidity and mortality. The peripheral nervou...
