Postural Control, Ankle and Trunk Proprioception in Type 2 Diabetes

Recruiting

• Conditions: Type2diabetes
• Interventions: Other: Semmes Weinstein Monofilament Test; Other: Proprioception measurement; Other: Postural control assessment; Other: Dynamic balance assessment; Other: Timed Up and Go Test; Other: Montreal Cognitive Assessment

• Registration Number: NCT06045598
• Lead Sponsor: Hasan Kalyoncu University

Brief Summary

The investigators aim to assess the postural control, ankle, and trunk proprioception, plantar sensation, and general cognitive status in patients with Type 2 diabetes.

Detailed Description

The investigators aim to assess the postural control on different floors with eyes open, eyes closed, and cognitive dual-task, ankle, and trunk proprioception, plantar sensation, and general cognitive status of patients diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes between the ages of 18-65, and to compare them with healthy controls.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Postural Control	20 minutes	Postural control of the participants will be measured objectively by transferring the data taken from the body to the computer with the help of a wearable sensor using Gyko-Microgate software. Ellipsoid area and moving speed will be measured in mm² and mm/s².
Ankle proprioception	10 minutes	Proprioception in ankle plantar flexion and dorsiflexion will be measured with the help of a digital goniometer.
Lumbal proprioception	5 minutes	Proprioception in lumbar flexion and extension will be measured with the help of a digital goniometer.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Cognitive status	10 minutes	Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is evaluated out of 30 points. The highest score that can be obtained from the scale is 30, the lowest score is 0. 21 points is the reference limit and a value below 21 points indicates that there is an affect on cognitive status.
Dynamic Balance	1 minute	Timed Up and Go Test
Plantar sensation	5 minutes	Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament Test
