Ultrasound test for nerve damage in diabetes
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial uses a special ultrasound technique to see if it can detect nerve damage in people with diabetes. It may help doctors find diabetic peripheral neuropathy earlier and more accurately.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You do not have diabetes.
- You do not have peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage in your hands or feet).

This study analyzes blood samples from people with diabetes to understand what causes nerve pain and damage in the legs and feet. Researchers will compare blood from three groups: people with diabetic nerve pain, people with diabetes but no nerve problems, and healthy volunteers without diabetes.
This study uses ultrasound to examine nerves in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage in their legs or feet. Researchers will compare ultrasound findings with blood tests to understand why some people develop this complication and how to better detect it early.
This study tests whether umbilical cord stem cells can help people with diabetic nerve damage in their legs who haven't gotten enough relief from standard treatments. It aims to improve symptoms like numbness, pain, and tingling.
This study looks at how diabetes affects nerves, including those that control automatic functions like sweating and heart rate. Researchers will use ultrasound and electrical tests to check for nerve damage in people with diabetes, and compare results to healthy volunteers.
This study uses ultrasound to look at nerves in people with peripheral neuropathy. It may help doctors better understand the condition.
This study uses ultrasound (an imaging test) to measure the nerves in the legs of people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage. It helps doctors learn more about how diabetes affects nerves.
