What the study is about

In this study the effects of diabetic peripheral neuropathy will be assessed on balance control, balance recovery, and muscle electrical activity in adults over 50 years.

Aim 1: Determine muscle activity and balance control during a sit-to-stand in adults age above 50 with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Aim 2: Assess local balance recovery and latency responses to lateral surface perturbation during quiet standing.

Being studied: sit-to-stand; stand to sit; standing perturbation; MRI of sciatic nerve

Conditions: Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy; Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Type 2; Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Type 2 - Uncontrolled; Healthy Aging
