Impact of diabetic peripheral neuropathy on gait abnormalities in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Background: Many patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) suffer from diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and impaired muscle coordination. These changes may lead to walking instability, and gait abnormalities resulting in increased fall risk and lower limb amputations. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of DPN and patient footwear on the gait in patients with diabetes, in addition to Comparing the peak plantar pressure (PPP) in patients with and without DPN and assessing its association with gait abnormalities.
Methodology: This is an observational case-control study. Forty Subjects with T2DM were divided into two age and sex-matched groups, 20 subjects each. Group A: subjects with DPN. Group B: subjects without DPN. All study participants were subjected to a thorough history taking, clinical examinations focusing on detailed foot examination, PPP assessment, and functional gait evaluation.
Results: The results obtained in this study showed a median gait assessment score of 21 (17.0-22.5) for group A and 26 (23.5-26.0) for group B which was statistically significant (p < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between both groups (p > 0.05) regarding the assessment of footwear appropriateness. Comparing the PPP measurement among both studied groups, the prevalence of an elevated PPP was 80% in group A compared to 65% in group B, which was statistically non-significant, p = 0.288.
Conclusions: Gait abnormalities are common among patients with T2DM even in the absence of DPN. However, the presence of DPN was the strongest independent risk factor for gait abnormalities among the studied factors.
期刊介绍:
Diabetology International, the official journal of the Japan Diabetes Society, publishes original research articles about experimental research and clinical studies in diabetes and related areas. The journal also presents editorials, reviews, commentaries, reports of expert committees, and case reports on any aspect of diabetes. Diabetology International welcomes submissions from researchers, clinicians, and health professionals throughout the world who are interested in research, treatment, and care of patients with diabetes. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed to assure that high-quality information in the field of diabetes is made available to readers. Manuscripts are reviewed with due respect for the author''s confidentiality. At the same time, reviewers also have rights to confidentiality, which are respected by the editors. The journal follows a single-blind review procedure, where the reviewers are aware of the names and affiliations of the authors, but the reviewer reports provided to authors are anonymous. Single-blind peer review is the traditional model of peer review that many reviewers are comfortable with, and it facilitates a dispassionate critique of a manuscript.
