Diabetes
• Why joint restrictions?
• Why joint mobilisations?
• What are the musculoskeletal complications of Diabetes?
![Page 3: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Diabetes and Glycosylation
• The non-enzymatic reaction of proteins (collagen) with glucose
(Collagen includes: skin, cartilage, tendons, bones and joint capsule)
• Increased amount and duration of glucose in the blood allows more glycosylation to occur and an increase in cross-linking within collagen fibres (Abate et al., 2011).
• Thereby increasing mechanical strength and stiffness and reducing its optimal elasticity ( Avery and Bailey, 2005)
![Page 4: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Limited Joint Mobility Syndrome (LJMS)
• One of the most common MSK complications in diabetes which is underexposed and underdiagnosed (Gerrits et al., 2015)
• Originally known as “cheiroarthropathy”; painless stiffness of hands and fingers, fixed flexion contractures
• Ultimately, results in impairment of joint mobility
![Page 5: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Diagnosis of LJMS – prayer sign
• Clinically, it is detected by performing the “prayer sign”; by asking the patient to put his or her hands together in a praying position with the fingers fanned and to press together the palmar surfaces of the interphalangeal joints and the palms (Upreti et al., 2013)
![Page 6: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Diagnosis of LJMS – table top
(Abourazzak et al., 2014)
![Page 7: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
LJMS in the foot and ankle (joints)
• Reductions in total ankle ROM (Zimny et al., 2004); end-range ankle dorsiflexion (Wrobel et al., 2003)
• Reductions in STJ mobility ((Delbridge et al., 1988)
• Reductions in total 1st MTPJ ROM (Zimny et al., 2004; Giacomozzi et al., 2005); 1st MTPJ dorsiflexion (Turner et al., 2007; Wrobel et al., 2003)
![Page 8: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
LJMS and changes in gait and foot rollover
• Ankle stiffness (equinus) affects the 2nd rocker in preserving forward momentum
• 1st MTPJ stiffness affects the 3rd rocker in preserving forward momentum and passive toe off
(Sacco et al., 2009)
![Page 9: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
LJMS in the foot and ankle and evidence of increased ulceration risk
Ankle and 1st MTPJ reductions in DF with neuropathy can lead to increases in forefoot peak plantar pressure and ultimately risk of foot ulceration (Delbridge et al., 1988; Fernando et al., 1991; Zimny et al., 2004)
![Page 10: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Management
• Traditionally focus on reducing tissue stress and off-loading• Callus debridement
• Custom-made insoles/orthotics/padding
• Custom-made footwear
These are not addressing the biomechanical deficits:• Muscle stiffness/tendon thickening (2nd to glycosylation)• Joint stiffness/capsular restriction (2nd to glycosylation)• Muscle weakness (ankle, knee)/atrophy (distal and mid leg)/activation delay (tib ant, gastrocs)

Questions
Does a shift needs to take place from mainly “passive” therapies (orthotics, footwear etc.) to “active” and preventative interventions (exercise therapy, manual therapy)?
Do we need to place more emphasis in the prevention of the long-term complications of neuropathy rather than focusing when already present (foot deformities, ulcerations, amputations)?
![Page 12: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Emerging evidence on exercise therapy…
Sartor et al., 2014
“This change toward a more physiological pattern, together with foot and ankle function improvement, entails a better foot-to-floor interaction”
![Page 13: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Recent evidence
Francia et al., 2015
“exercise therapy significantly improves joint mobility, muscular performance and walking speed in diabetic patients--thus limiting one of the pathogenic factors of diabetic foot and potentially preventing disability”
![Page 14: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Recent evidence
Sacco and Sartor, 2016
• “if foot and ankle exercises are performed following the early diagnosis of diabetes, they can enable the patient to maintain sufficient residual function to interact with the environment”
![Page 15: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Worth considering…again
• Diabetic podiatry specialist needs to integrate MSK assessment to appreciate lower limb mechanics and generation of forces
• Integration of passive therapies (orthotics, footwear) with active therapies (exercise prescription and rehabilitation)
• Clinically assess for LJMS and monitor/treat biomechanical deficits due to muscle weakness and joint stiffness
• Not suitable for every patient with diabetes
![Page 19: Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes › uploads › production › document › path … · Mobilisations of joint restrictions in Diabetes Mr Vasileios Lepesis MSc,](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060207/5f03e5907e708231d40b4e04/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Joint mobilisationManual therapy is a common form of treatment employed, in
order to help increase range of motion of a specific joint region by restoring the arthrokinematic accessory gliding and rolling movement that is associated with normal joint
movement.
(Joint mobilisation is also used to relieve pain)

Rationale for mobilisations
• - To increase ROM into ankle and 1st MTPJ dorsiflexion• - Increase the posterior capsular endpoint and provide stimulation or articular
mechanoreceptors from oscilations that span the length of the available accessory motion (Hoch et al., 2012)
• - Improve the mechanical sensitivity of the joint and the soft tissue adoptation to the load (Hengeveld and Banks, 2013)
• - Joint mobilisation aims to increase physiologic and accessory motion by increasing the extensibility of the noncontractile capsular and ligamentous tissues and improve the trasmission of afferent information by stimulation joint mechanoreceptors (Kaltenborn, 2011)

Ankle joint – Convex dome of the talus moving on concave ankle mortise – glides in opposite direction
Big toe joint - Concave head of MTPJ moving on convex proximal IPJ – glides in same direction
Concave-convex rule
Exelby (1996)

Concave – convex rule
• To increase ankle joint DF – therapist needs to apply a AP (anterior to posterior direction) glide of talus on ankle mortise
