Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Physical Therapy for Neuromuscular and Neurosurgery Summary: Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) results in an impairment of cognitive tasks. Few studies addressed the effect of cognitive - motor dual task in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) patients. Purpose: To investigate and compare the effect of single and dual tasks on balance in DPN patients. Methods: Sixty subjects distributed into 3 equal groups, GI (sensory DPN patients), GII (sensory and motor DPN patients) and GIII (healthy subjects as a control group) participated in the study. All subjects with age ranged from 50 to 60 years old. The performance of all groups were assessed using montreal - cognitive assessment (MoCA), biodex balance system (dynamic balance and limit of stability), mental task (verbal fluency and arithmetic test) and performing the mental task while balancing as a dual task. This study is a cross section design. Results: There was a significant decrease in MoCA, stability in dynamic balance and limit of stability Biodex Balance measures at dual task in GI and II compared to GIII (p = 0.0001). Also, there was a significant increase in stability in overall, left and right stability at dual task of GI compared with that of GII
