Article Synopsis
- A study assessed the effects of individual factors and multiple sensory inputs on the balance (postural sway) of 69 adults, including 48 with type 2 diabetes and 21 healthy individuals.
- Various evaluations, like physical activity levels and strength, alongside environmental conditions, were examined to understand their relationship with balance issues.
- The findings revealed that adults with diabetes experience different balance challenges based on their condition, indicating the need for tailored rehabilitation programs.
Background: A recent study has shown variability on the perception of verticality during unilateral centrifugation among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus; it is yet unknown if it is related to symptoms of unreality.
Objective: In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to age matched healthy volunteers, to assess depersonalization/derealization (DD) symptoms before and after unilateral centrifugation, according to the subjective visual vertical (SVV).
Methods: 47 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 50 age matched healthy volunteers participated in the study.
