PHYSIOTHERAPY RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 29:e2103. [PMID: 38887171 DOI: 10.1002/pri.2103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) occurs in >50% of diabetic patients and is a high risk-factor of balance problems and risk of falls. Impaired balance can lead to reduced function, which has a detrimental effect on patients' quality of life. Structured strength and balance training can result in sustained improvements in muscle strength, coordination, balance, functional status and quality of life. OBJECTIVE To determine the combined effects of strength and balance training versus aerobic training on balance, severity of symptoms of DPN, and quality of life in patients with DPN. METHODS This double blinded, two arm parallel design Randomized Clinical Trial. The study was conducted from March to December 2020 in the AIMS diabetic center Peshawar, Pakistan. Participants were selected through convenience sampling technique and randomly allocated into strength plus balance and aerobic training groups. Type 2 diabetic patients of both sexes, aged 40 to 80 years, with a Toronto neuropathy score ≥6 recruited, while patients with ulceration/infection of feet, medical/Surgical conditions, and non-ambulatory patients were excluded from this study. Intervention was applied 3 days a week for 8 weeks. The Toronto clinical neuropathy system was used to assess neuropathy severity, SF-36 to assess quality of life and the Berg balance scale was used for assessment of balance. Assessment was done at the baseline and after 8 weeks of intervention using SPSS. Version 22 was used for analysis. RESULTS The mean age of the participants was 60.80 ± 9.73. Between group analysis, which showed were statistically insignificant for neuropathy severity, balance and all domains of quality of life (p-value >0.05) except SF-36 General Health Perception Score, with Mean ± SD of 62.50 ± 7.54 in group A versus Mean ± SD of in group B 60.00 ± 15.98 (p-value = 0.05). Within group analysis showed statistically significant results for neuropathy severity, balance and all domains of quality of life (p-value<0.05). CONCLUSION This study concluded that there is a statistically significant effect of structured balance and strength training and aerobic training on severity of DPN, balance and quality of life. But there was no statistically significant difference in improvement between the two intervention groups.

Abstract
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a prevalent metabolic disorder with systemic implications, potentially affecting musculoskeletal health. This study aimed to assess shoulder muscle strength and joint repositioning accuracy in individuals with T2DM, exploring potential correlations and shedding light on the musculoskeletal consequences of the condition. The objectives were two-fold: (1) to assess and compare shoulder strength and joint repositioning accuracy between individuals with T2DM and asymptomatic counterparts, and (2) to examine the correlation between shoulder strength and joint repositioning accuracy in individuals with T2DM. Methods A cross-sectional study enrolled 172 participants using the convenience sampling method, including 86 individuals with T2DM and an age-matched asymptomatic group (n = 86). Shoulder strength was assessed using a handheld dynamometer, while joint repositioning accuracy was evaluated with an electronic digital inclinometer. Results Individuals with T2DM exhibited reduced shoulder muscle strength compared to asymptomatic individuals (p < 0.001). Additionally, joint repositioning accuracy was significantly lower in the T2DM group (p < 0.001). Negative correlations were observed between shoulder strength and joint repositioning accuracy in various directions (ranging from -0.29 to -0.46, p < 0.001), indicating that higher muscle strength was associated with improved joint repositioning accuracy in individuals with T2DM. Conclusion This study highlights the significant impact of T2DM on shoulder muscle strength and joint repositioning accuracy. Reduced strength and impaired accuracy are evident in individuals with T2DM, emphasizing the importance of addressing musculoskeletal aspects in diabetes management. The negative correlations suggest that enhancing shoulder muscle strength may lead to improved joint repositioning accuracy, potentially contributing to enhanced physical functioning in this population.

Abstract
The immune system has a critical role in orchestrating tissue healing. As a result, regenerative strategies that control immune components have proved effective1,2. This is particularly relevant when immune dysregulation that results from conditions such as diabetes or advanced age impairs tissue healing following injury2,3. Nociceptive sensory neurons have a crucial role as immunoregulators and exert both protective and harmful effects depending on the context4-12. However, how neuro-immune interactions affect tissue repair and regeneration following acute injury is unclear. Here we show that ablation of the NaV1.8 nociceptor impairs skin wound repair and muscle regeneration after acute tissue injury. Nociceptor endings grow into injured skin and muscle tissues and signal to immune cells through the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) during the healing process. CGRP acts via receptor activity-modifying protein 1 (RAMP1) on neutrophils, monocytes and macrophages to inhibit recruitment, accelerate death, enhance efferocytosis and polarize macrophages towards a pro-repair phenotype. The effects of CGRP on neutrophils and macrophages are mediated via thrombospondin-1 release and its subsequent autocrine and/or paracrine effects. In mice without nociceptors and diabetic mice with peripheral neuropathies, delivery of an engineered version of CGRP accelerated wound healing and promoted muscle regeneration. Harnessing neuro-immune interactions has potential to treat non-healing tissues in which dysregulated neuro-immune interactions impair tissue healing.

Abstract
The mode of diabetes-induced muscle and motor neuron damage depends on the type of muscle and motor neuron. One of the purposes of exercise therapy for diabetes is to improve blood glucose levels; however, information on the effects of low-intensity exercise on muscle and motor neuron disorders remain unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effects of low-intensity exercise on diabetes-induced muscle and motor neuron damage in a rat model of type 1 diabetes mellitus. We subjected adult male Wistar rats treated with streptozotocin to develop type 1 diabetes and age-matched rats to low-intensity treadmill exercise for 12 weeks. We recorded electrically evoked maximum twitch tension in leg muscles, and examined the number of motor neurons and cell body sizes. Low-intensity exercise ameliorated the prolonged half-relaxation time and the decreased numbers of the retrograde-labeled motor neurons observed in the soleus muscle of type 1 diabetic rats. However, no effect was observed in the diabetic group, as atrophy was not improved and the twitch force in the medial gastrocnemius muscle was decreased in the diabetic group. In addition, there was no improvement in the blood glucose levels after exercise. These data indicate that low-intensity exercise may relieve the onset of muscle and motor neuron damage in the soleus muscle of type 1 diabetic rats.

Behavior of neuropathy symptom score and neuropathy disability score in patients with and without peripheral diabetic neuropathy: A retrospective cohort study. J Bodyw Mov Ther 2024; 37:76-82. [PMID: 38432845 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbmt.2023.11.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to stablish cut-off of early diagnosis of diabetic polyneuropathy (PDN) based on neuropathy symptom score (NSS) and neuropathy disability score (NDS); to determine the behavior of NDD and NDS in patients with and without PDN; and to verify the association between clinical and demographic variables with both tests. METHODS This retrospective cohort included 86 patients with diabetes. The NSS and NDS evaluations were collected in medical records in two moments: initial (entry into service) and final (after three years). Individuals were categorized in three groups: G1- PDN in both evaluations (N = 27); G2- PDN only in the final evaluation (N = 16); G3-individuals without PDN (N = 43). A ROC curve was performed to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of NSS and NDS for PDN diagnosis. ANOVA was used to compare NSS and NDS between groups and evaluations, and multiple regression was performed to find predictors of PDN. RESULTS The NSS and NDS showed excellent sensitivity and specificity (NDS ≥1.5 and NSS ≥6.5) for PDN diagnosis. There was a significant difference between groups in initial (p = 0.000) and final (p = 0.000) NDS and NSS evaluations. There was an association between peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and increase in NSS (p = 0.024) in G2; and association between loss of protective sensation (LOPS) and increase in NSS in G3 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION NSS and NDS tests showed excellent sensitivity and specificity for early PDN diagnosis. Behavior of both tests can differ patients with and without PDN. Furthermore, PAD and LOPS can be a predictor of PDN evolution.

Abstract
Diabetic neuropathy is a neuro-degenerative disorder that encompasses numerous factors that impact peripheral nerves in the context of diabetes mellitus (DM). Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is very prevalent and impacts 50% of diabetic patients. DPN is a length-dependent peripheral nerve lesion that primarily causes distal sensory loss, discomfort, and foot ulceration that may lead to amputation. The pathophysiology is yet to be fully understood, but current literature on the pathophysiology of DPN revolves around understanding various signaling cascades involving the polyol, hexosamine, protein-kinase C, AGE, oxidative stress, and poly (ADP ribose) polymerase pathways. The results of research have suggested that hyperglycemia target Schwann cells and in severe cases, demyelination resulting in central and peripheral sensitization is evident in diabetic patients. Various diagnostic approaches are available, but detection at an early stage remains a challenge. Traditional analgesics and opioids that can be used "as required" have not been the mainstay of treatment thus far. Instead, anticonvulsants and antidepressants that must be taken routinely over time have been the most common treatments. For now, prolonging life and preserving the quality of life are the ultimate goals of diabetes treatment. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of DPN has substantial consequences for occupational therapy because such therapy is necessary for supporting wellness, warding off other chronic-diseases, and avoiding the development of a disability; this is accomplished by engaging in fulfilling activities like yoga, meditation, and physical exercise. Therefore, occupational therapy, along with palliative therapy, may prove to be crucial in halting the onset of neuropathic-symptoms and in lessening those symptoms once they have occurred.

Abstract
Introduction: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common complication of diabetes patients. Among different therapeutic approaches for treating DPN, low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation (PBM) is a new promising non-invasive technique. This study aims to evaluate the effect of visible and infra-red LLLT on DPN. Methods: Sixty DPN patients enrolled in a randomized-controlled study. The patients were randomly divided into the same population of control and laser groups. The patients in the laser group received LLLT with two wavelengths of 630 and 819 nm and conventional therapy, and those in the control group received conventional therapy alone. Irradiation of the patients lasted 15 minutes per session, and it was performed over the surface of each foot three times a week for 12 sessions. The patients were evaluated at baseline and at the end of the study with the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) and microfilament test. Results: Patients' sensation in the right foot in the monofilament test had increased from 22 (84.6%) to 26 (86.7%) (P=0.000), and in the left foot it had increased from 20 (80%) to 25 (86.2%) (P=0.001). The mean and standard deviation of the scores of section A of the Michigan questionnaire showed a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05), but the B part scores of the Michigan test did not show a significant difference. Conclusion: This study showed that the visible and infra-red LLLT significantly improved the symptoms of diabetic neuropathy without any side effects.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the incidence of accidental falls and develop a fall risk prediction tool in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus. BACKGROUND The risk of fall in elderly patients with diabetes is higher than that in the general elderly, there is fewer fall assessment tools for elderly patients with diabetes. DESIGN A prospective cohort study. METHODS Between June and September 2019, a total of 1007 elderly patients with diabetes were enrolled from a tertiary specialist diabetes hospital in Tianjin and were prospectively followed up for 6 months to determine outcomes of accidental falls through telephone. Demographic and diseases related factors were collected at baseline. Incidence of falls was investigated, and a nomogram was developed based on logistic regression model. SPSS 21.0 and R 3.6.3 were used to analyse the data. The article was reported in accordance with STROBE guidelines. RESULTS Among 1007 elderly patients, 950 finished the follow-up. A total of 133 falls occurred in 93 patients during the follow-up period, with a fall rate of 9.79%. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy, walking aids, depression, fall history, fatigue and sex were independent predictors of accidental fall in diabetes elderly patients. The sensitivity and specificity of the predictive model were 73.12% and 52.63%, respectively, and a fall risk prediction nomogram was developed based on the regression model. CONCLUSIONS A nomogram including 6 easily available prediction factors (diabetic peripheral neuropathy, walking aids, depression, fall history within 1 year, fatigue, sex) was developed, and it can be used in safety management among Chinese elderly patients diagnosed with diabetes. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Nomogram can be used to identify diabetic elderly patients at high risk of accidental falls.

[PMID: 36575595 PMCID: PMC9891922 DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies indicated that obesity would accelerate frailty progression. However, obesity is heterogeneous by different metabolic status. The associations of metabolic heterogeneity of obesity with frailty progression remain unclear. METHODS A total of 6730 participants from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) and 4713 from the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA) were included at baseline. Metabolic heterogeneity of obesity was evaluated based on four obesity and metabolic phenotypes as metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW), metabolically unhealthy normal weight (MUNW), metabolically healthy overweight/obesity (MHOO), and metabolically unhealthy overweight/obesity (MUOO). Frailty status was assessed by the frailty index (FI) ranging from 0 to 100 and frailty was defined as FI ≥ 25. Linear mixed-effect models were used to analyse the associations of metabolic heterogeneity of obesity with frailty progression. RESULTS In the CHARLS, MUOO and MUNW presented the accelerated FI progression with additional annual increases of 0.284 (95% CI: 0.155 to 0.413, P < 0.001) and 0.169 (95% CI: 0.035 to 0.303, P = 0.013) as compared with MHNW. MHOO presented no accelerated FI progression (β: -0.011, 95% CI: -0.196 to 0.173, P = 0.904) as compared with MHNW. In the ELSA, the accelerated FI progression was marginally significant for MUOO (β: 0.103, 95% CI: -0.005 to 0.210, P = 0.061) and MUNW (β: 0.157, 95% CI: -0.011 to 0.324, P = 0.066), but not for MHOO (β: -0.047, 95% CI: -0.157 to 0.062, P = 0.396) in comparison with MHNW. The associations of MUOO and MUNW with the accelerated FI progression were stronger after excluding the baseline frail participants in both cohorts. The metabolic status changed over time. When compared with stable MHNW, participants who changed from MHNW to MUNW presented the accelerated FI progression with additional annual increases of 0.356 (95% CI: 0.113 to 0.599, P = 0.004) and 0.255 (95% CI: 0.033 to 0.477, P = 0.024) in the CHARLS and ELSA, respectively. The accelerated FI progression was also found in MHOO participants who transitioned to MUOO (CHARLS, β: 0.358, 95% CI: 0.053 to 0.663, P = 0.022; ELSA, β: 0.210, 95% CI: 0.049 to 0.370, P = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS Metabolically unhealthy overweight/obesity and normal weight, but not metabolically healthy overweight/obesity, accelerated frailty progression as compared with metabolically healthy normal weight. Regardless of obesity status, transitions from healthy metabolic status to unhealthy metabolic status accelerated frailty progression as compared with stable metabolically healthy normal weight. Our findings highlight the important role of metabolic status in frailty progression and recommend the stratified management of obesity based on metabolic status.

Zurong Y, Yuandong L, Xiankui T, Fuhao M, Tang L, Junkun Z. Morphological and Mechanical Properties of Lower-Limb Muscles in Type 2 Diabetes: New Potential Imaging Indicators for Monitoring the Progress of DPN. Diabetes 2022; 71:2751-2763. [PMID: 36125913 DOI: 10.2337/db22-0009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/14/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore changes in morphological and mechanical properties of lower-limb skeletal muscles in patients with diabetes with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and seek to find a potential image indicator for monitoring the progress of DPN in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total of 203 patients with T2DM, with and without DPN, were included in this study. Ultrasonography and ultrasound shear wave imaging (USWI) of the abductor hallux (AbH), tibialis anterior (TA), and peroneal longus (PER) muscles were performed for each subject, and the shear wave velocity (SWV) and cross-sectional area (CSA) of each AbH, TA, and PER were measured. The clinical factors influencing AbH_CSA and AbH_SWV were analyzed, and the risk factors for DPN complications were investigated. AbH_CSA and AbH_SWV in the T2DM group with DPN decreased significantly (P < 0.05), but no significant differences were found in the SWV and CSA of the TA and PER between the two groups. Toronto Clinical Scoring System (CSS) score and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were independent predictors of AbH_CSA and AbH_SWV. As AbH_SWV and AbH_CSA decreased, Toronto CSS score and HbA1c increased and incidence of DPN increased significantly. In conclusion, the AbH muscle of T2DM patients with DPN became smaller and softer, while its morphological and mechanical properties were associated with the clinical indicators related to the progression of DPN. Thus, they could be potential imaging indicators for monitoring the progress of DPN in T2DM patients.

Abstract
Diabetes is on the rise as the worldwide population ages. While physical activity can help protect against diabetes, ageing is commonly associated with reduced physical activity. This study aimed to examine if physical activity differs by diabetes status in mid-aged adults, how this association changes over time, and whether physical activity-related sociodemographic factors and health indicators differ in those with and without diabetes. Data came from four waves of the How Areas in Brisbane Influence HealTh and AcTivity (HABITAT), a longitudinal study of mid-age adults living in Brisbane, Australia. Random effects/Expectation-maximisation (RE-EM) regression trees were used to identify factors affecting physical activity among those with and without diabetes, both separately and combined. At study entry, those with diabetes had a higher median age of 58 years (95% CI: 57-60) and a lower median physical activity of 699 MET.min/week (95% CI: 599-799) than people without diabetes (53 years (95% CI: 53-53) and 849 MET.min/week (95% CI: 799-899)). However, the strongest factors influencing physical activity were BMI and gender, not diabetes status. It is vital to promote physical activity among adults, in particular among those with high BMI and women, as well as those with and at high risk of diseases like diabetes.

BMC Endocr Disord 2022; 22:118. [PMID: 35505327 PMCID: PMC9066950 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-022-01035-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 04/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we investigated whether serum levels of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) independently correlated with relative muscle strength after adjustment for clinical variables including diabetic peripheral neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes. Relative muscle strength was defined as muscle strength (in decinewtons, dN) divided by total muscle mass (in kg). METHODS We enrolled 152 ambulatory patients with type 2 diabetes. Each participant underwent measurements of muscle strength and total muscle mass. Serum levels of AGEs were determined. The Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument Physical Examination (MNSI-PE) was performed to assess diabetic peripheral neuropathy. RESULTS The participants were divided into three groups on the basis of tertiles of serum AGEs levels. Significant differences were observed among the three groups in relative handgrip strength (71.03 ± 18.22, 63.17 ± 13.82, and 61.47 ± 13.95 dN/kg in the low-tertile, mid-tertile, and high-tertile groups, respectively, P = 0.005). The relative muscle strength of the ankle plantar flexors was higher in the low-tertile group than in the mid-tertile and high-tertile groups (107.60 ± 26.53, 94.97 ± 19.72, and 94.18 ± 16.09 dN/kg in the low-tertile, mid-tertile, and high-tertile groups, respectively, P = 0.002). After adjustment for MNSI-PE score and other clinical variables in partial correlation analysis, the correlations between serum levels of AGEs and the relative muscle strength of handgrip, ankle dorsiflexor, and ankle plantar flexor remained significant. Serum AGEs level was the only variable that remained significantly related to the relative muscle strength of handgrip, ankle dorsiflexor, and ankle plantar flexor when AGEs level, fasting plasma glucose, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were entered into multiple regression models simultaneously. CONCLUSIONS After adjustment for multiple factors including diabetic peripheral neuropathy, this study demonstrated that increased serum levels of AGEs were independently associated with decreased relative muscle strength in patients with type 2 diabetes. Compared with fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c, serum level of AGEs is more strongly associated with relative muscle strength.

Abstract
Background Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common chronic neurological complication. It is the main cause of disability in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Pharmacological treatments always associate with limited efficacy and adverse effects. Moxibustion has been recommended to treat DPN as an adjuvant therapy to conventional medical treatment to accelerate alleviation of the symptoms of DPN. 10.6-μm laser moxibustion (LM), whose wavelength is close to the peak of infrared radiation spectrum of the traditional moxibustion as well as human acupoints, produces the thermal effect similar with moxibustion but with no smoke or smell. The purpose of this sham controlled clinical trial is to determine the effect and safety of 10.6-μm LM as adjuvant therapy in patients with DPN. Methods This is a protocol for a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial. One hundred fourteen patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be recruited and randomly assigned to the LM group or the sham LM group with a 1:1 allocation ratio. Patients in both groups will receive a basic integrated treatment of Chinese and Western medicine and a total of 12 sessions of true or sham LM treatments over 4 weeks with 3 sessions a week. The primary outcome is nerve conduction velocity (NCV), and the secondary outcomes include Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) scores, Diabetes-Specific Quality of Life (DSQL) scores, blood rheology parameters, and assessments of safety and blinding. Outcome measures will be collected at baseline, 2 weeks after treatment, the end of LM treatments (4 weeks), and 4, 8 weeks after the end of LM treatment (8, 12weeks). Discussion This study will be conducted to compare the efficacy of LM versus sham LM combined with medical treatment. 10.6-μm LM may alleviate symptoms, improve quality of life, and reduce the dosage of drugs as well as avoid causing serious side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral neuropathy is among the most common complications of diabetes, but a phenotypically identical distal sensory predominant, painful axonopathy afflicts patients with prediabetic metabolic syndrome, exemplifying a spectrum of risk and continuity of pathogenesis. No pharmacological treatment convincingly improves neuropathy in the setting of metabolic syndrome, but evolving data suggest that exercise may be a promising alternative. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to review in depth the current literature regarding exercise treatment of metabolic syndrome neuropathy in humans and animal models, highlight the diverse mechanisms by which exercise exerts beneficial effects, and examine adherence limitations, safety aspects, modes and dose of exercise. RESULTS Rodent models that recapitulate the organismal milieu of prediabetic metabolic syndrome and the phenotype of its neuropathy provide a strong platform to dissect exercise effects on neuropathy pathogenesis. In these models, exercise reverses hyperglycemia and consequent oxidative and nitrosative stress, improves microvascular vasoreactivity, enhances axonal transport, ameliorates the lipotoxicity and inflammatory effects of hyperlipidemia and obesity, supports neuronal survival and regeneration following injury, and enhances mitochondrial bioenergetics at the distal axon. Prospective human studies are limited in scale but suggest exercise to improve cutaneous nerve regenerative capacity, neuropathic pain, and task-specific functional performance measures of gait and balance. Like other heath behavioral interventions, the benefits of exercise are limited by patient adherence. CONCLUSION Exercise is an integrative therapy that potently reduces cellular inflammatory state and improves distal axonal oxidative metabolism to ameliorate features of neuropathy in metabolic syndrome. The intensity of exercise need not improve cardinal features of metabolic syndrome, including weight, glucose control, to exert beneficial effects.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcer(DFU) is one of the most severe chronic complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus, which is mainly caused by peripheral vascular occlusion with various degrees of infection. Treatment of DFU is difficult, and ulcer formation in lower limbs and deep-tissue necrosis might lead to disability or even death. Insulin resistance is the major mechanism of type 2 diabetes mellitus development, largely caused by adipose tissue dysfunction. However, adipose tissue was recently identified as an important endocrine organ that secretes bio-active factors, such as adipokines and extracellular vesicles(EVs). And adipose tissue-derived stem cells(ADSCs) are abundant in adipose tissue and have become a hot topic in the tissue engineering field. In particular, EVs derived from ADSCs contain abundant biomarkers and mediators. These EVs exert significant effects on distant cells and organs, contributing to metabolic homeostasis. In this review, we aim to elaborate on the mechanisms of diabetic non-healing wound development and the role of ADSCs-EVs in wound repair, which might provide a new therapy for treating DFU.

Abstract
Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum calcium (Ca2+) ATPase (SERCA) transports Ca2+ in muscle. Impaired SERCA activity contributes to diabetic myopathy. Sirtuin (SIRT) 3 regulates muscle metabolism and function. However, it is unknown if SIRT3 regulates muscle SERCA activity. We determined if SIRT3 overexpression enhances SERCA activity in mouse gastrocnemius muscle and if SIRT3 overexpression preserves gastrocnemius SERCA activity in a model of type 2 diabetes, induced by high fat-high sucrose (HFHS)-feeding. We also determined if the acetylation status of SERCA proteins in mouse gastrocnemius is altered by SIRT3 overexpression or HFHS-feeding. Wild-type (WT) mice and SIRT3 transgenic (SIRT3TG) mice, overexpressing SIRT3 in skeletal muscle, were fed a standard- or HFHS-diet for 4-months. SIRT3TG and WT mice developed obesity and glucose intolerance after 4-months of HFHS-feeding. SERCA Vmax was higher in gastrocnemius of SIRT3TG mice, compared to WT mice. HFHS-fed mice had lower SERCA1a protein levels and lower SERCA Vmax in their gastrocnemius than control-fed mice. The decrease in SERCA Vmax in gastrocnemius muscle due to HFHS-feeding was attenuated by SIRT3 overexpression in HFHS-fed SIRT3TG mice. SERCA1a and SERCA2a acetylation in mouse gastrocnemius was not altered by genotype or diet. These findings suggest SIRT3 overexpression improves SERCA function in diabetic mouse skeletal muscle.

Abstract
This study examined the associations between asymmetric handgrip strength (HGS) and multimorbidity in American adults. Secondary analyses of data from persons aged at least 40 years from the 2011-2012 and 2013-2014 waves of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were conducted. A handheld dynamometer collected HGS on each hand and persons with a strength imbalance >10% between hands were classified as having asymmetric HGS. Adults with the presence of ≥2 of the following conditions had multimorbidity: cardiovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, asthma, arthritis, cancer, obesity, stroke, hypertension, high cholesterol, and diabetes. Of the n = 3483 participants included, n = 2700 (77.5%) had multimorbidity. A greater proportion of adults with multimorbidity had HGS asymmetry (n = 1234 (45.7%)), compared to persons living without multimorbidity (n = 314 (40.1%); p < 0.05). Relative to individuals without asymmetry, adults with asymmetric HGS had 1.31 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03-1.67) greater odds for multimorbidity. Moreover, persons with HGS asymmetry had 1.22 (CI: 1.04-1.44) greater odds for accumulating morbidities. Asymmetric strength, as another indicator of diminished muscle function, is linked to chronic morbidity status. Healthcare providers should recommend healthy behaviors for reducing asymmetries to improve muscle function and mitigate morbidity risk after completing asymmetry screenings.

Abstract
The age-related decrease in skeletal muscle mass together with the loss of muscle power and function is defined sarcopenia. Mounting evidence suggests that the prevalence of sarcopenia is higher in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and different mechanisms may be responsible for this association such as impaired insulin sensitivity, chronic hyperglycemia, advanced glycosylation end products, subclinical inflammation, microvascular and macrovascular complications. Glucose-lowering drugs prescribed for patients with T2DM might impact on these mechanisms leading to harmful or beneficial effect on skeletal muscle. Importantly, beyond their glucose-lowering effects, glucose-lowering drugs may affect per se the equilibrium between protein anabolism and catabolism through several mechanisms involved in skeletal muscle physiology, contributing to sarcopenia. The aim of this narrative review is to provide an update on the effects of glucose-lowering drugs on sarcopenia in individuals with T2DM, focusing on the parameters used to define sarcopenia: muscle strength (evaluated by handgrip strength), muscle quantity/quality (evaluated by appendicular lean mass or skeletal muscle mass and their indexes), and physical performance (evaluated by gait speed or short physical performance battery). Furthermore, we also describe the plausible mechanisms by which glucose-lowering drugs may impact on sarcopenia.

Abstract
PURPOSE Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder. Research regarding the risk of non-vertebral fractures in men, especially in elderly men with T2DM, has not been a priority. T2DM is not a known independent risk factor for low-energy fractures in patients. We aimed to explore the relationship between men (especially older men) with T2DM and the risk of non-vertebral fractures and the reasons for the sex differences. METHODS The PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for articles on T2DM and fracture risk. A meta-analysis, including heterogeneity testing, publication bias analysis, and subgroup analysis of the included studies, was performed using STATA software. RESULTS Sixteen studies involving 1,758,225 participants, 59,909 non-vertebral fracture events, and 6430 vertebral fracture events were included in this research. The adjusted relative risk of T2DM and non-vertebral fracture in men was 1.20 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-1.31), implying that men with T2DM have a slightly increased risk of non-vertebral fracture. CONCLUSION Male patients with T2DM have a slightly increased risk of non-vertebral fractures. Due to the differences in bone strength, sex steroid hormone levels, bone quality and muscle strength and balance, men with type 2 diabetes have a lower risk of non-vertebral fractures than women.

[PMID: 33810813 PMCID: PMC8017787 DOI: 10.1186/s13643-021-01656-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2020] [Accepted: 03/29/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common chronic complications of diabetes mellitus. The main symptoms of DPN include numbness or pain in both extremities and paresthesia (such as formication or burning sensations), which greatly affect patients' quality of life. Pharmacological treatments for DPN are associated with both uncertain therapeutic effects and adverse effects, as well as with high costs. Some clinical studies have reported that low-level laser therapy (LLLT) relieves clinical symptoms and improves nerve function in patients with DPN. We intend to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to further evaluate the effectiveness and safety of LLLT for DPN. METHODS The following electronic databases will be searched to retrieve literature from their inception until December 2020: MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science (the Science and Social Science Citation Index), CNKI, VIP, WanFang, and SinoMed. Simultaneously, clinical registration tests and gray literature will also be retrieved. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing LLLT with either sham LLLT, no (specific) treatment, or active conventional medical treatments will be included. The primary outcomes will be nerve conduction velocity as well as clinical scores that assess neurological function and related symptoms. The risk of bias of each study and quality of evidence will be assessed using the updated Cochrane Risk of Bias 2.0 tool and GRADE approach, respectively. A meta-analysis will then be conducted using Review Manager software version 5.3. DISCUSSION This study will integrate RCTs and analyze data to provide a detailed summary of the evidence relating to the effects and safety of LLLT in patients with DPN. LLLT will be compared with sham LLLT, no (specific) treatment, or active conventional medical treatments, especially in terms of neurological function, quality of life, and adverse events. In conclusion, this systematic review will generate evidence regarding the use of LLLT to treat DPN, in terms of both its efficacy and safety. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION This protocol was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews on April 2020 (registration number: CRD42020170625 ).

Applicability of High-Frequency Ultrasound to the Early Diagnosis of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:5529063. [PMID: 33829060 PMCID: PMC8004362 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5529063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2021] [Revised: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
This study investigated the applicability of high-frequency ultrasound (HFU) to the early diagnosis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Patients with type 2 diabetes (N = 60) were divided into diabetic nonperipheral neuropathy and DPN groups (group A and group B, respectively; n = 30 each) based on electroneurophysiologic findings. Additionally, 30 nondiabetic patients were included as the healthy control group (group C). We calculated the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the median nerve (MN) of the right upper limb at 7 different sites (MN1–7) based on measured width (W) and thickness (T). Ultrasound imaging characteristics of the MN including internal echo, internal structure, boundary, epineurium, and blood flow were recorded. The 90 subjects (51 male and 39 female) had an average age of 56.09 ± 12.66 years. W, T, and CSA of the MN were increased in group A compared to group C (with significant differences at MN1, MN4, and MN7 (P < 0.05)) and in group B compared to group C (with significant differences at all 7 levels, especially MN6 and MN7 (P < 0.05)). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that CSA at the MN7 level had the highest diagnostic accuracy for DPN in group B, with a threshold value of 12.42 mm2. Ultrasound examination revealed that the MN had lost the internal sieve mesh structure and showed reduced echo, a partial blood flow signal, and thickened epineurium in patients with DPN; these findings were particularly obvious at MN6 and MN7, corresponding to the carpal tunnel. CSA was positively correlated with motor latency and F wave average latency and negatively correlated with motor conduction velocity, motor amplitude, and sensory conduction velocity in group B. Thus, HFU may be useful for the early diagnosis of DPN, which can improve clinical outcomes.

Association of obesity, diabetes, and physical frailty with dental and tongue-lip motor dysfunctions in patients with metabolic disease. Obes Res Clin Pract 2021; 15:243-248. [PMID: 33692009 DOI: 10.1016/j.orcp.2021.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2020] [Revised: 02/12/2021] [Accepted: 02/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to reveal the clinical features associated with decreased dental (or shearing/crushing) and tongue-lip motor functions in patients with metabolic diseases. METHODS One thousand patients with metabolic diseases including diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and hyperuricemia were recruited. Dental function was assessed with a gummy jelly test, wherein glucose elution from a chewed gummy jelly was measured. Tongue-lip motor function was measured as repeatedly pronounced syllables per second. The association of clinical variables with the two functions was analyzed using multivariate linear regression models. RESULTS The mean measurement of dental function was 202 ± 73 mg/dL, and that of tongue-lip motor function was 5.5 ± 1.0 times/s. Clinical variables independently associated with dental function (mg/dL) were age (adjusted regression coefficient β = -9.8 per standard deviation [SD]), smoking (β = -14.4 and -25.9 for past and current smoking, respectively), body mass index (BMI) 25-30 and ≥30 versus 20-25 kg/m2 (β = -14.7 and -23.1, respectively), diabetes (β = -11.9), hemoglobin A1c level ≥64 mmol/mol (β = -14.6), gait speed (β = 6.2 per SD), and handgrip strength (β = 7.5 and 7.7 per SD for males and females, respectively) (all P < 0.05). Clinical variables independently associated with tongue-lip motor function (times/s) were age (β = -0.31 per SD), BMI ≥ 30 versus 20-25 kg/m2 (β = -0.24), diabetes (β = -0.22), dyslipidemia (β = 0.16), gait speed (β = 0.12 per SD), and handgrip strength (β = 0.18 and 0.13 per SD for males and females, respectively) (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Obesity, diabetes, physical frailty, and old age were shared risk factors for decreased dental and tongue-lip motor functions in patients with metabolic diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes is linked to functional decline, but the impact of prediabetes on physical function is unknown. We aimed to examine and compare the impact of prediabetes and diabetes on physical function and disability progression and to explore whether cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) mediate these associations. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A cohort of 2,013 participants aged ≥60 from the Swedish National Study on Aging and Care in Kungsholmen, an ongoing population-based longitudinal study, was monitored for up to 12 years. Physical function was measured with chair stand (s) and walking speed (m/s) tests, and disability was measured by summing the numbers of impaired basic and instrumental activities of daily living. Diabetes was identified through medical examinations or clinical records, medication use, or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥6.5%. Prediabetes was defined as HbA1c ≥5.7-6.4% in participants free of diabetes. CVDs were ascertained through clinical examinations and the National Patient Register. Data were analyzed using mixed-effect models and mediation models. RESULTS At baseline, 650 (32.3%) had prediabetes and 151 had diabetes (7.5%). In multiadjusted mixed-effect models, prediabetes was associated with an increased chair stand time (β 0.33, 95% CI 0.05-0.61), a decreased walking speed (β -0.006, 95% CI -0.010 to -0.002), and an accelerated disability progression (β 0.05, 95% CI 0.01-0.08), even after controlling for the future development of diabetes. Diabetes led to faster functional decline than prediabetes. In mediation analyses, CVDs mediated 7.1%, 7.8%, and 20.9% of the associations between prediabetes and chair stand, walking speed, and disability progression, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Prediabetes, in addition to diabetes, is associated with faster functional decline and disability, independent of the future development of diabetes. This association may be in part mediated by CVDs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a novel MR-fingerprinting (MRF) pulse sequence that is insensitive to B 1 + and B0 imperfections for simultaneous T1 , T2 , and T1ρ relaxation mapping. METHODS We implemented a totally balanced spin-lock (TB-SL) module to encode T1ρ relaxation into an existing MRF framework that encoded T1 and T2 . The spin-lock module used two 180° pulses with compensatory phases to reduce T1ρ sensitivity to B1 and B0 inhomogeneities. We compared T1ρ measured using TB-SL MRF in Bloch simulations, model agar phantoms, and in vivo experiments to those with a self-compensated spin-lock preparation module (SC-SL). The TB-SL MRF repeatability was evaluated in maps acquired in the lower leg skeletal muscle of 12 diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients, scanned two times each during visits separated by about 30 days. RESULTS The phantom relaxation times measured with TB-SL and SC-SL MRF were in good agreement with reference values in regions with low B1 inhomogeneities. Compared with SC-SL, TB-SL MRF showed in experiments greater robustness against severe B1 inhomogeneities and in Bloch simulations greater robustness against B1 and B0 . We measured with TB-SL MRF an average T1 = 950.1 ± 28.7 ms, T2 = 26.0 ± 1.2 ms, and T1ρ = 31.7 ± 3.2 ms in skeletal muscle across patients. Bland-Altman analysis demonstrated low bias between TB-SL and SC-SL MRF and between TB-SL MRF maps acquired in two visits. The coefficient of variation was less than 3% for all measurements. CONCLUSION The proposed TB-SL MRF sequence is fast and insensitive to B 1 + and B0 imperfections. It can simultaneously map T1 , T2 , T1ρ , and B 1 + in a single scan and can potentially be used to study muscle composition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Many studies have explored the association between neuropathy and osteoporosis in patients with diabetes mellitus. However, the results still remain inconsistent and controversial. We aimed to estimate the association between diabetic neuropathy and osteoporosis. METHODS Databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane library, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), and Wanfang, were screened from inception to 30 March 2020. Studies were selected and data were extracted by two independent reviewers. Study characteristics and quality sections were reviewed independently. Pooled ORs and 95% CIs were calculated using random effects model when evidence of heterogeneity was present; otherwise, fixed effects model was used. Meta-regression and subgroup analyses were performed to explore the source of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were also tested. RESULTS A total of 11 studies with 27,585 participants were included in this analysis which indicated that there was an increased odd between diabetic neuropathy and osteoporosis (overall OR 2.20, 95% CI 1.71-2.83). In the subgroup analyses and meta-regression, diabetic neuropathy has no significant difference in osteoporosis or fracture (p = 0.532). And osteoporosis also has no significant difference in type 1 or type 2 diabetic neuropathy (p = 0.668). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis suggests that patients with diabetic neuropathy have a significantly increased chance of developing osteoporosis, even fragility fracture. The clinicians should pay more attention to the patients with diabetic neuropathy. Further studies were still needed to explore the confounding factors among studies and to elucidate the underlying biological mechanisms.

Abstract
Objective This study was performed to investigate the influence of lower limb muscle strength on the walking function of advanced-age patients with diabetes. Methods In this cross-sectional descriptive study, data were collected from 202 advanced-age patients with diabetes. All patients completed questionnaires, the one-leg stance test, the timed up-and-go test, the 30-s sit-to-stand test, and plantar pressure platform measurements. The patients were divided in two groups according to their lower limb muscle strength: those with declining muscle strength and those with normal muscle strength. Results Walking function was significantly abnormal in the patients with declining lower limb muscle strength. The gait trajectories were abnormal, mainly with respect to a shortage of driving force. Conclusion The lower limb muscle strength can affect the static balance and dynamic balance in advanced-age patients with declining lower limb muscle strength.

Abstract
This article demonstrates the power and flexibility of linear mixed-effects models (LMEMs) to investigate high-density surface electromyography (HD-sEMG) signals. The potentiality of the model is illustrated by investigating the root mean squared value of HD-sEMG signals in the tibialis anterior muscle of healthy (n = 11) and individuals with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (n = 12). We started by presenting the limitations of traditional approaches by building a linear model with only fixed effects. Then, we showed how the model adequacy could be increased by including random effects, as well as by adding alternative correlation structures. The models were compared with the Akaike information criterion and the Bayesian information criterion, as well as the likelihood ratio test. The results showed that the inclusion of the random effects of intercept and slope, along with an autoregressive moving average correlation structure, is the one that best describes the data (p < 0.01). Furthermore, we demonstrate how the inclusion of additional variance structures can accommodate heterogeneity in the residual analysis and therefore increase model adequacy (p < 0.01). Thus, in conclusion, we suggest that adopting LMEM to repeated measures such as electromyography can provide additional information from the data (e.g. test for alternative correlation structures of the RMS value), and hence provide new insights into HD-sEMG-related work.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to investigate the association of sarcopenia and muscle mass with both peripheral neuropathy and nerve function in type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS A total of 1794 patients (937 men and 857 women) with type 2 diabetes, with a mean age of 60.22 years, were enrolled for a cross-sectional study; of these, 183 patients were enrolled for a follow-up study with a median follow-up of 2.7 years. All participants underwent nerve conduction studies and muscle mass index (ASM/HT2) measurements. The composite Z scores for the sensory nerve conduction velocity (SCV) and the motor nerve conduction velocity (MCV) were calculated. The changes in ASM/HT2, SCV, and MCV were calculated from the measurements nearly 2 years apart and classified into three groups: a decrease in ASM/HT2 of >3%, a minor change within ±3%, and an increase in ASM/HT2 of >3%. RESULTS The ASM/HT2 of men was positively associated with the composite Z scores of MCV and SCV, and sarcopenia highly correlated with DPN after adjusting for confounding factors. The optimal cutoff point for ASM/HT2 that indicated DPN was 7.09 kg/m2. Furthermore, increases in ASM/HT2 independently predicted a greater benefit of MCV and SCV increment outcomes, whereas a minor change in ASM/HT2 only significantly associated with lower benefit in terms of SCV increment. However, this phenomenon was not observed in women. CONCLUSIONS Sarcopenia and DPN exhibited a close association. The increased muscle mass improved the partial MCVs and SCVs. However, a sex-related discrepancy was observed in this phenomenon.

Abstract
Exercises for diabetic peripheral neuropathy remain controversial, especially with regard to recommended precautions and weightbearing exercises for individuals. We aimed to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of simple hand, finger, and foot exercises in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. After randomization, exercise (n = 51) and control (n = 53) groups received usual care and diabetic foot care education; only the exercise group performed exercises. Primary outcomes, including activities of daily living (assessed using the Patient Neurotoxicity Questionnaire), neuropathy severity (monofilament and vibration test), and pain (behavioral rating scale and Visual Analog Scale), and secondary outcomes, including physical function of the hand and foot (grip, pinch, finger counting time, and Timed Up and Go tests), were assessed at baseline, after the 8-week intervention, and at the 16-week follow-up. The exercise group showed significantly stronger improvements in motor score and specific activities of daily living, such as climbing stairs and performing work or chores. Our exercises can be used to improve limb function in patients with diabetic neuropathy.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a growing health concern with nearly 400 million affected worldwide as of 2014. T2D presents with hyperglycemia and insulin resistance resulting in increased risk for blindness, renal failure, nerve damage, and premature death. Skeletal muscle is a major site for insulin resistance and is responsible for up to 80% of glucose uptake during euglycemic hyperglycemic clamps. Glucose uptake in skeletal muscle is driven by mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and for this reason mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in T2D. In this review we integrate mitochondrial function with physiologic function to present a broader understanding of mitochondrial functional status in T2D utilizing studies from both human and rodent models. Quantification of mitochondrial function is explained both in vitro and in vivo highlighting the use of proper controls and the complications imposed by obesity and sedentary lifestyle. This review suggests that skeletal muscle mitochondria are not necessarily dysfunctional but limited oxygen supply to working muscle creates this misperception. Finally, we propose changes in experimental design to address this question unequivocally. If mitochondrial function is not impaired it suggests that therapeutic interventions and drug development must move away from the organelle and toward the cardiovascular system.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The goal of this review is to explore clinical associations between peripheral neuropathy and diabetic bone disease and to discuss how nerve dysfunction may contribute to dysregulation of bone metabolism, reduced bone quality, and fracture risk. RECENT FINDINGS Diabetic neuropathy can decrease peripheral sensation (sensory neuropathy), impair motor coordination (motor neuropathy), and increase postural hypotension (autonomic neuropathy). Together, this can impair overall balance and increase the risk for falls and fractures. In addition, the peripheral nervous system has the potential to regulate bone metabolism directly through the action of local neurotransmitters on bone cells and indirectly through neuroregulation of the skeletal vascular supply. This review critically evaluates existing evidence for diabetic peripheral neuropathy as a risk factor or direct actor on bone disease. In addition, we address therapeutic and experimental considerations to guide patient care and future research evaluating the emerging relationship between diabetic neuropathy and bone health.

Abstract
Objective 5-HOB is a novel tissue selective, 5-hydroxybenzothiazolone-derived β2 adrenoceptor agonist with minimized cardiovascular effects while retaining efficacy on skeletal muscle in preclinical experiments unlike conventional β2 adrenoceptor agonists, however its effect on the nervous system has not been evaluated yet. Therefore, 5-HOB was evaluated in a mouse model of neuropathic pain. Results 5-HOB alleviated neuropathic allodynia in a dose dependent manner and reversed the changes in hind paw withdrawal thresholds to the sham control levels. The dose attenuating neuropathic allodynia was slightly lower than the dose inducing skeletal muscle hypertrophy. In conclusion, as reported with known β2 adrenoceptor agonists, 5-HOB was also effective in attenuating neuropathic pain in mice in addition to its effect on skeletal muscle.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND AIM The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of 12 weeks of low-intensity resistance training and exercises for peripheral neuropathy (EPN) on the inflammatory and physiological conditions, balance, and complications of diabetic neuropathy in female patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS 45 women with mild to moderate diabetic neuropathy and an average age of 55.46±3.06 years voluntarily participated in the study. They were randomly assigned to either control (n=15), resistance (n=15), and EPN (n=15) groups. Both experimental groups were trained for 12 weeks (three sessions per week). EPN group did peripheral neuropathic exercises (12 lower extremity movements), and the resistance group performed their exercises with a 30% repetition maximum. During the intervention period, the control group only performed their daily activities. Blood samples were taken in both pre-test and post-test to investigate the levels of Tumor necrosis-α (TNF-α), Interleukin-10 (IL-10), C Reactive Protein (CRP), fast blood glucose (FBG) and Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Complications of diabetic neuropathy were measured using the Michigan questionnaire and the Monofilament 10 g. In order to measure the balance, De Morton mobility index (DEMMI) was used. RESULTS The statistical analyses showed a significant decrease of FBG and HbA1c in the two experimental groups, as compared to the control group. TNF-α and CRP levels were decreased in both EPN and resistance groups, as compared to the control group. The observed increase in the serum IL-10 levels of the two experimental groups was not, however, significant, as shown in intra-group and inter-group comparisons. On the other hand, the two complications of pain and tingling in the lower limb extremities were improved in both experimental groups (p<0.05). However, the numbness complication showed no significant change (p=0.10). Static and dynamic balance was improved in the EPN group as well (p<0.05). CONCLUSION Since EPN exercises, in contrast to resistance exercises, are focused on the lower limb extremities and designed for diabetic neuropathy patients, they can improve the imbalance, pain and tingling, by significantly reducing TNF-α and CRP and improving the physiological conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The stratification system from the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot (IWGDF) was used to classify the participants as to the ulcer risk. However, it is not yet known what the classification groups' individual deficits are regarding sensitivity, function, and musculoskeletal properties and mechanics. This makes it difficult to design proper ulcer prevention strategies for patients. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the foot function, foot strength and health of people with diabetes mellitus (DM)-with or without DPN-while considering the different ulcer risk classifications determined by the IWGDF. METHODS The subject pool comprised 72 people with DM, with and without DPN. The patients were divided into three groups: Group 0 (G0), which comprised diabetic patients without DPN; Group 1 (G1), which comprised patients with DPN; and Group 2 (G2), which comprised patients with DPN who had foot deformities. The health and foot function of the subjects' feet were assessed using a foot health status questionnaire (FHSQ-BR) that investigated four domains: foot pain, foot function, footwear, and general foot health. The patients' foot strength was evaluated using the maximum force under each subject's hallux and toes on a pressure platform (emed q-100, Novel, Munich, Germany). RESULTS Moderate differences were found between G0 and G1 and G2 for the foot pain, foot function, general foot health, and footwear. There was also a small but significant difference between G0 and G2 in regards to hallux strength. CONCLUSION Foot health, foot function and strength levels of people with DM and DPN classified by the ulcer risk are different and this must be taken into account when evaluating and developing treatment strategies for these patients.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of a 6-month multicomponent exercise program (MCEP) on functional, cognitive, and hemodynamic parameters of older Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Moreover, additional analyses were performed to evaluate if T2DM patients present impaired adaptability in response to physical exercise when compared to nondiabetic volunteers. A total of 72 T2DM patients and 72 age-matched healthy volunteers (CG) were recruited and submitted to functional, cognitive, and hemodynamic evaluations before and after six months of a MCEP. The program of exercise was performed twice a week at moderate intensity. Results indicate T2DM and nondiabetic patients present an increase in mobility (i.e., usual walking speed) after the MCEP. However, improvements in maximal walking speed, transfer capacity, and executive function were only observed in the CG. On the other hand, only T2DM group reveals a marked decline in blood pressure. In conclusion, data of the current study indicate that a 6-month MCEP improves mobility and reduce blood pressure in T2DM patients. However, maximal walking speed, transfer capacity, and executive function were only improved in CG, indicating that T2DM may present impaired adaptability in response to physical stimulus.

Abstract
Polyneuropathies are common neurologic disorders affecting the peripheral nerves. There are a number of causes of damage to these structures, such as genetic and metabolic factors, autoimmune disorders, infection, drug or environmental toxicity, and malignancy. Motor and sensory impairments are commonly encountered in these conditions, leading to altered balance and gait with increased risk of falling. Diabetic neuropathy is the most common cause of peripheral nerve disease and extensive investigation of balance and walking function revealed greater postural instability and delayed activation of distal muscles during walking. Although classically thought to be due to sensory impairment, it is now recognized that a motor contribution to balance and gait impairment cannot be ruled out in diabetic neuropathy. Inflammatory and inherited neuropathies have had less investigation. Variations in static and dynamic balance and depend on the sensory afferents affected and the degree of motor impairment. Motor impairment is a major contributor to alterations in gait pattern. Exercise is an effective rehabilitation approach that can improve muscle strength and postural responses. The gains can carry over into improved functional balance and walking. Orthotic interventions are also promising in supporting joints where there is significant muscle weakness, but newer devices are being developed that provide sensory feedback, e.g., vibration, which may be effective where sensory impairment is a key contributor to postural instability.
