简要总结
This study examined the effects of balance exercises performed with the Biodex Balance System (BBS) on nerve conduction, sensory symptoms, and muscle strength in patients with diabetes-related neuropathy.
详细描述
We enrolled twenty-seven patients in this study. Patients in the intervention group (n=14) performed exercises using the computerized BBS. The control group (n=13) was just informed about diabetes self-management. All patients underwent pretest and posttest peripheral nerve conduction studies. Sensory examination performed by using 5.07 Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments and 128-Hz tuning fork. Muscle strength measurements obtained with manual dynamometer
