简要总结
The purpose of this study is to describe the effect of a 10-week exercise program on nerve function and number of nerve fibers in the skin in the lower leg in people with diabetic neuropathy.
详细描述
The objective for this application is to quantify the benefits of exercise on nerve function including proprioception, and investigate the relationship of these findings with improvements in epidermal and dermal innervation. In this pilot project, we will pursue 2 specific aims: 1) determine the effect of an exercise intervention on nerve function in people with diabetic neuropathy, and 2) assess changes in cutaneous innervation following participation in an exercise program.
