Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Thirty patients with DM will be included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. All the participants will be evaluated by ABC form and Timed Up and Go Test (TUG). The Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS ) will be used for all the patients.

ABC scale is a self-assessment test with 16 items that helps assess balance impairments and falling risk, and it also investigates how confident people are while they are in some specific activities both indoors, and outdoors. Total score changes between 0-100.

The HbA1c values of all patients will be noted if a blood test will be performed in the last three months.
