Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is associated with peripheral sensory and motor
nerve damage that affects up to half of diabetes patients and is an independent risk factor for …

Purpose. The aim of this paper is to review the published studies on the characteristics of
impairments in the postural control and gait performance in diabetic peripheral neuropathy …

Aims/hypothesis Gait characteristics and balance are altered in diabetic patients. Little is
known about possible treatment strategies. This study evaluates the effect of a specific …

AIM: The purpose of the present study was to distinguish the effects of both diabetes mellitus
type 2 (DM2) and diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN) on mobility, muscle strength and health …

Background Gait analysis serves as an important tool for clinicians and other health
professionals to assess gait patterns related to functional limitations due to neurological or …

For older individuals with diabetes, any decline in balance control can be especially
problematic since it is often a precursor to an increased risk of falling. This study was …

In a variety of applications, inertial sensors are used to estimate spatial parameters by
double integrating over time their coordinate acceleration components. In human movement …

Motor imagery (MI) is often used in combination with neuroimaging techniques to study the
cognitive control of gait. However, imagery ability (IA) varies widely across individuals …

AIMS: We evaluated the associations of diabetic complications and underlying pathology
with daily walking activity in type 2 diabetic patients without manifest mobility limitations …

Nowadays, gait assessment in the real life environment is gaining more attention. Therefore,
it is desirable to know how some factors, such as surfaces (natural, artificial) or dual-tasking …
