متن کاملIs it how they walk? Biomechanics in diabetic peripheral neuropathy: a review of the literature
Background Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) affects the sensory, motor, and autonomic nervous system. The biomechanical changes resulting from DPN may translate to increased plantar pressures in the foot, which contributes to the pathogenesis and development of foot ulcers. This review aims to investigate the existing biomechanical literature associated with gait, dynamic electromyography a...
متن کاملDiabetic Peripheral Neuropathy and Neurodynamics
Neuropathic pain is an important problem because of its complex natural history, multiple possible etiologies, and poor response to standard physical therapy modalities. Disorders of the peripheral nerve system (PNS) are heterogeneous and may involve motor fibers, sensory fibers, small myelinated and unmyelinated fibers and autonomic nerve fibers, with variable anatomical distribution (single n...

متن کاملManagement of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
Neuropathies are among the most common of all the long-term complications of diabetes, affecting up to 50% of patients.1–5 There are many subgroups of neuropathies; readers are referred to recent reviews for discussion of the autonomic neuropathies6 and the mononeuropathies.7 This article will focus on the most common of all the peripheral neuropathies: the somatic neuropathies affecting the lo...
