| Details | Significant gait and balance deficits have been found in persons with type two diabetes mellitus (DMII) compared to individuals without DMII (. As a result of having gait and balance deficits, Dingwell. However, recent evidence suggests that similar gait and balance deficits can be found in individuals with DMII without PN (. In addition, patients with DMII also use different compensatory strategies during walking or standing (. Various studies have evaluated the gait on irregular surfaces of individuals with DMII; however, to the best of our knowledge, there is not any research that focuses on gait when ascending and descending ramps in this population. Therefore, our study is aimed at answering the following: What are the temporospatial and kinematic deficits demonstrated in individuals with DMII while ascending and descending a ramp during an imposed speed?. Therefore, we hypothesized that, compared with healthy individuals, (i) individuals with controlled DMII and no evidence of PN... |
