Brief Summary:
Is the ability to perceive motion altered by diabetes? The investigators are measuring motion perception using a technique called vestibular thresholds. Subjects will undergo 3 hours of testing in which they sit in a chair that makes small movements and report their perception of motion. The investigators are currently looking for individuals who have had type 2 diabetes for at least 10 years.
Detailed Description:
Previous studies have found that individuals with diabetes fall more frequently, have less stable posture, and have reduced motion and touch sensation in the lower extremities. This study will examine whether vestibular sensation is also affected by diabetes.
This study is observational because measurements will be made without the application of an intervention. The same measurement protocol was applied to a large group of normal subjects, and this published data will serve as normative controls.
