The Natural History of TRPV4 Neuropathy
The goal of this research is to document the natural history of neuropathy in patients with a confirmed genetic mutation in the TRPV4 gene. The investigators are searching for patients willing to participate in a 6-year long study to document the symptoms of TRPV4-associated disease and their progression over time. …
Diabetic Neuropathy in Spinal Cord Stimulator Patients
The objective of this study is to assess the effect Spinal Cord Stimulators have toward improving vascular changes of diabetes mellitus in patients eligible for SCS placement based on their condition of painful diabetic neuropathy; we will evaluate improving their disability and quality of life, improving micro-circulatory changes induced by …
Prediction of Peripheral Neuropathy With Functional Testing
Diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are two distinct pathologies. The former is defined as an impairment in insulin production and/or utilization, while the latter refers to structural or functional abnormalities of the kidneys. However, these two diseases share a common complication: peripheral neuropathy. This condition affects between 50% and …
Detection of Small Fiber Neuropathy Using Skin Properties
Small fiber neuropathy affects millions of peoples worldwide. The neuropathy is causing disabling burning pain and dysautonomia such as dizziness with standing, brain fog, fatigue, constipation, too much or too little sweating. The detection of nerve damage is complicated and not widely available; it requires either skin biopsy or specialized …
Predicting Peripheral Neuropathy of Paclitaxel for Gastric Cancer
Although advances in chemotherapy have improved the prognosis of gastric cancer patients, many patients still suffer from adverse events. Therefore, it is necessary to establish personalized treatment by identifying patients at high risk for side effects. Although paclitaxel-based therapy is the standard second-line treatment, peripheral neuropathy is a troublesome adverse …
A Causative Role for Amylin in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
Three pieces of information lead to the basis for this study: Individuals with Type-2 diabetes commonly develop peripheral neuropathy. Increased production of the hormone amylin occurs in individuals who have Type-2 diabetes. Aggregations of amylin was found in the peripheral vasculature of rats that overexpressed human amylin. The purpose of …
Characterization and Prediction of Early Onset Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
Predicting early onset neuropathy in people with type 1 diabetes
IVIG for Drug and Device Refractory Gastrointestinal Auto-Immune Neuropathy
Patients with the symptoms of generalized GI dysmotility, including gastroparesis, are sometimes refractory to available medications, devices and other interventions/ Some of these patients have serologic and/or endo organ abnormalities and findings consistent with autoimmune neuropathies, primarily involving the GI tract. These disorders have been known as autoimmune gastrointestinal neuropathies …
Muscle and Bone in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus and Neuropathy
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate muscle fiber type composition in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with a common complication of T2DM: diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DNP), specifically diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy. Researchers will also look into factors related to DNP: inflammation, the use of energy in …
Immunoglobulin M (IgM)-Anti-myelin-associated-glycoprotein(MAG) Peripheral Neuropathy Study
There is no international consensus regarding how to assess and treat patients with immunoglobulin M (IgM)-anti-myelin-associated-glycoprotein (MAG) monoclonal gammopathy associated peripheral neuropathy. The purpose of the IMAGiNe study-Lyon/Bicêtre is to prospectively collect standardized clinical data of 25 patients with IgM-anti-MAG monoclonal gammopathy associated peripheral neuropathy in order to participate in …
