RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by an abnormal increase in blood glucose levels resulting from insulin secretion and/or dysfunctional activity that can lead to several serious complications in addition to decreased postural balance. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify and analyze the main interventions used to improve static balance in patients with DM. METHODS: For the selection of articles, a bibliographic search was performed using PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane databases. Only clinical trials that investigated the effect of training on static balance in adults with type 2 DM were selected, and 34 studies were included. RESULTS: The search resulted in the identification of 2681 articles, and of these, 31 were eligible for the study. The identified interventions were proprioceptive, aerobic, resistance training on platforms, in virtual reality, and Tai Chi. The main results obtained were an increase in time in the one-leg stance, Romberg test, and tandem position, a significant increase in the Berg Balance Scale score and balance index, and a reduction in the variables of postural sway. CONCLUSION: There are a variety of effective training methods for improving static balance, and the choice of intervention to be applied goes beyond proven effectiveness, depending on reproducibility and/or financial cost.

INTRODUÇÃO: A diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) é uma doença crônica sistêmica ligada às mudanças no estilo de vida, fatores genéticos e ambientais, ocasionando complicações como a neuropatia diabética periférica (NDP). Além disso, pessoas com DM2 apresentam um retardo na condução nervosa das vias motoras e sensoriais, podendo levar a alterações no equilíbrio. OBJETIVO: Descrever as alterações de equilíbrio estático em pacientes com DM2. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: A revisão sistemática iniciou em outubro de 2021 ocorrendo a última busca em março de 2023, os artigos foram selecionados por dois autores de forma independente nas bases de dados Pubmed, Scopus e Web of Science. Seguindo o protocolo registrado no PROSPERO e descrito com base nas recomendações do PRISMA, foram selecionados estudos observacionais sem restrição a ano de publicação e idioma, envolvendo equilíbrio de DM em qualquer idade. RESULTADOS: Foram eleitos 20 artigos com indivíduos DM e NPD em um total de 1564 voluntários, demonstrando: DM causa mudança na velocidade e deslocamento do COP alterando o equilíbrio estático, a presença da NPD piora a estabilidade corporal devido as alterações sensitivo motoras. CONCLUSÃO: Indivíduos com DM e NPD demonstram alterações na estabilidade postural como velocidade e deslocamento do centro de pressão (COP) para as direções AP e ML, com ou sem informação visual e na presença da NPD.
INTRODUCTION: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) is a chronic systemic disease linked to changes in lifestyle, genetic and environmental factors, causing complications such as peripheral diabetic neuropathy (PDN). In addition, people with DM2 have a delay in nerve conduction in motor and sensory pathways, which can lead to changes in balance. OBJECTIVE: To describe static balance changes in patients with DM2. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The systematic review started in October 2021 with the last search occurring in March 2023, the articles were selected by two authors independently from the Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science databases. Following the protocol registered in PROSPERO and described based on the PRISMA recommendations, observational studies were selected without restriction on year of publication and language, involving DM balance at any age. RESULTS: 20 articles were chosen with DM and NPD individuals in a total of 1564 volunteers, demonstrating that DM causes changes in the speed and displacement of the COP, altering the static balance and the presence of NPD worsens body stability due to sensory-motor changes. CONCLUSION: Individuals with DM and NPD demonstrate changes in postural stability such as velocity and displacement of the center of pressure (COP) for the AP and ML directions, with or without visual information and in the presence of DPN.
