Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Co-existence of peripheral- and vestiubular neuropathy in people with diabetes
Vestibular neuropathy (measured by pathological video head impulse test (v-Hit) (one-sided, two-sided or specific arcways)) will be compared with peripheral neuropathy (measured by quantitative sensory testing, nerve conduction and COMPASS-33) in the population with diabetes.
through study completion, an average of 2 years
Co-existence of peripheral neuropathy and impaired dynamic postural control in people with diabetes
Dynamic balance (measured by Bertec) will be compared with peripheral neuropathy (measured by quantitative sensory testing, nerve conduction and COMPASS-33) in the population with diabetes.
through study completion, an average of 2 years
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Correlation between the severity of peripheral neuropathy and the severity of vestibular in terms of degree of pathological video head impulse testingneuropathy
through study completion, an average of 2 years
Correlation between distal neuropathy and dynamic postural control (including patterns)
through study completion, an average of 2 years
The impact of peripheral neuropathy on postural control (In quite stance)
through study completion, an average of 2 years
