1. Correlation between the range of motion of the tibiotarsal joint and blood circulation in the lower limbs in diabetic individuals
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the range of motion and lower-limb hemodynamic indices in the tibiotarsal joint of individuals with diabetic neuropathy. METHODS: Twenty volunteers of both sexes, with a mean age of 61.45±7.05 years, were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic peripheral neurop

3. Efficacy of exercise on balance, fear of falling, and risk of falls in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ABSTRACT Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common complication of diabetes mellitus. Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy of exercise interventions in DPN patients from randomized controlled trials. The primary outcomes were the risk of falls, fear of falling, balance and quality of life. Two reviewers independently selected studies from

7. Whole exome sequencing identifies a novel variant in an apoptosis-inducing factor gene associated with X-linked recessive hearing loss in a Chinese family
Abstract We report on the genetic analysis of a Chinese family in which four male patients presented with postlingual progressive hearing loss, associated with distal muscle wasting and unsteady ataxic gait. Using whole exome sequencing, we identified a new pathogenic variant (c.1463C>T, p.Pro488Leu) in the AIFM1 gene, which encodes the apoptosis-inducing fa

8. Fibrosis: a distinguishing feature in the pathology of neural leprosy
BACKGROUND Fibrosis in the peripheral nerve is the end stage of leprous neuropathy and the cause of the resulting permanent neural function impairments. Preventive measures to avoid this irreversible pathological state are a relief strategy for leprosy sufferers. OBJECTIVES The present study describes the frequency of fibrosis along with its characterisa

9. Identification and Clinical Characterization of a Novel Alpha-Galactosidase A Mutation
Abstract Fabry disease (FD) is an inborn error of metabolism characterized by deficient/absent activity of lysosomal enzyme alpha-galactosidase A, which results in systemic accumulation of glycosphingolipids and progression to renal failure, heart and cerebrovascular disease, and small-fiber peripheral neuropathy. This article describes a Brazilian family af

11. Small Fiber Neuropathy in Fabry Disease: a Review of Pathophysiology and Treatment
Abstract Fabry disease is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by progressive lysosomal accumulation of glycolipids in a variety of cell types, including neural cells. Small, unmyelinated nerve fibers are particularly affected and small fiber peripheral neuropathy often clinically manifests at a young age. Neuropathic pain and pain attacks are often

12. Uremic neuropathy: an overview of the current literature
RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO: A neuropatia periférica (NU) é um distúrbio que afeta o corpo celular, o axônio ou a mielina do motor ou neurônios sensoriais periféricos e ocorre em 60%-100% dos pacientes que são submetidos à diálise por doença renal crônica. A neuropatia urêmica é atribuída à acumulação de resíduos orgânicos, evidente em pacientes
