The study explores the effects of non-invasive transcutaneous CO 2 therapy on diabetic symmetrical peripheral polyneuropathy (DSPN). Overall, we included 120 patients with diabetes: 40 DSPN (group A) and foot ulceration (DFU) B), both receiving 20 sessions therapy; not treatment C). Outcomes were assessed using Semmes-Weinstein monofilament test, 128 Hz tuning fork vibration sensation, hallux temperature, wound dimensions, adverse effects. There was a significant improvement in protective sensation for -treated groups. Group A exhibited 53% improvement, while B improved by 34% (p = .002). In Groups A, 30% 23%, respectively. Hallux temperature increased more (5.10 °C) compared (3.89 °C).

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a complication of diabetes mellitus that lacks specific treatment, its high prevalence and disabling neuropathic pain greatly affects patients’ physical mental health. Schwann cells (SCs) are the major glial nervous system, which play an important role in various inflammatory metabolic neuropathies by providing nutritional support, wrapping axons promoting repair regeneration. Increasingly, glucose (HG) has been found to promote progression DPN pathogenesis targeting SCs death regulation, thus revealing molecular process programmed cell (PCD) disrupted link gain insight into DPN. This paper first review recent progress HG studies on apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, ferroptosis necroptosis pathways SCs, points out crosstalk between PCDs related therapeutic perspectives, with aim new perspectives for deeper understanding mechanisms exploration effective targets.

Introduction and objective: This literature review aims to provide an overview of the progress in metabolomic assessment animal cell models humans with diabetic neuropathy (DN). Methods: Metabolomics has emerged as important approach for investigating, identifying, describing biomarkers related DN. None yet been validated use clinical practice. Results: DN induced significant alterations energy metabolism carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, peptides, proteins. Several treatments DN, evaluated using metabolomics, were proved have promising results. Conclusions: The ideal metabolite or set metabolites that could be used should identify patients diabetes prone develop those severe forms sensory loss, associated risk ulcerations amputation. Another potential a might indicator treatment response trials agents disease-modifying properties.

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a progressive microvascular disorder of diabetes that contributes as primary reason for end-stage renal disease worldwide. The pathological hallmarks DN include diffuse mesangial expansion, thicker basement membrane glomeruli, and arteriole hyalinosis. Hypertension chronic hyperglycemia are the risk factors contributing to occurrence DN. complex pathophysiology involves interplay amongst metabolic hemodynamic pathways, growth cytokines production, oxidative stress, ultimately impaired kidney function. Hyperglycemia-induced vascular dysfunction main mechanism initiates However, several other pathogenic mechanisms, such inflammatory cell infiltration, fibrosis, contribute progression. Different vasoactive hormone processes, including endothelin renin-angiotensin, activated part DN, which also increased intraglomerular systemic pressure. will continue be better understood because recent developments in genomics molecular biology, but attempts develop comprehensive theory explains all existing cellular biochemical pathways have been thwarted by disease's multifactorial nature. This review extensively discusses current understanding regarding along with signaling molecules responsible pathogenesis work encourage greater in-depth investigation present status mechanistic processes underlying may assist determination different biomarkers help design development novel drug candidates near future.
