Trial summary

This study planned to investigate the role of potential explanatory factors effecting the speed of gait such as muscle mass, aerobic capacity, physical activity status, cognitive function, blood pressure, and metabolic measures considering age, sex, and education years in diabetic individuals without neuropathy.

About this study

This study planned to investigate the role of potential explanatory factors effecting the speed of gait such as muscle mass, aerobic capacity, physical activity status, cognitive function, blood pressure, and metabolic measures considering age, sex, and education years in diabetic individuals without neuropathy.

Read the detailed description

Type 2 diabetic people will be screened by clinical symptoms of neuropathy and DN4 questionnaire. Among those who did not have neuropathic symptoms or who have DN4 score below 4 will be considered for the study.Then aerobic capacity will be measured by a cycle ergometer and VO2max will be obtained. Weight, body mass index and muscle mass will be measured by bioimpedance analysis. Physical activity status will be determined by International Physical Activity Score (IPAQ). Cognitive function will be evaluated by Mini Mental test. HbA1c and fasting blood glucose will be measured in venous blood after overnight fasting. Blood pressure will be measured in the sitting position after resting from the left arm. Speed of gait will be measured by an accelerometer.Then, the effect of above mentioned factors on speed of gait will be studied.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gait Disorder, Sensorimotor and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by GULIN FINDIKOGLU at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

gait speed (time frame: The gait speed will be measured once within a month after the participants enrolled.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Apr 2021.
