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 looks at blood samples from people with diabetes to find markers that might explain why some develop nerve pain in their feet and legs. If you have diabetes and nerve-related pain, this research could help improve understanding of the condition.
This study uses ultrasound to look at the sciatic nerve and a nearby artery in people with diabetes and nerve damage. The goal is to see if these images can help detect or understand diabetic nerve damage, which could lead to better care.
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 tests whether low-frequency electroacupuncture (a gentle needle treatment with mild electrical pulses) can help relieve pain and improve nerve function in people with diabetic nerve damage. It may help reduce tingling, burning, or numbness in the feet and legs.
This study uses nerve tests and ultrasound to look at how diabetes affects nerves and the body's automatic functions. It may help doctors better understand and detect nerve damage from diabetes.
This study uses a special ultrasound to look at your nerves to better understand peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage). It aims to improve diagnosis and treatment planning without any surgery or needles.
