Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Diabetic poly neuropathy (DPN) is a length-dependent, symmetrical sensorimotor poly neuropathy and is among the most prevalent and challenging consequences of diabetes4.

The documented prevalence of DPN varies between 13% and 55%, with 25% to 50% of these individuals experiencing neuropathic pain5. This study was conducted to find out the impact of high-intensity laser versus moderate-intensity aerobic exercises on diabetic poly neuropathy patients.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

HIL treatment group

30 patients with DPN who were advised to undergo HIL treatment for eight weeks

Moderate-intensity aerobic exercise group

30 patients receive moderate-intensity aerobic exercise

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

moderate-intensity aerobic exercise

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

walking on a treadmill at a speed of 3-4 miles per hour on a flat surface (0% incline) for 40 minutes, 3 times weekly over eight weeks
