  Author(s): Rachita Nanda*, Seema Shah, Suprava Patel and Eli Mohapatra
  
  Background and Aims: With a lifetime incidence of diabetic foot ulcers as high a 25% for diabetics, early detection of these ulcers is utmost to reduce the morbidity, mortality, and economic burden associated with it. Although the role of glycaemic control in wound healing has been studied, there is limited information on indices of glucose metabolism in predisposing diabetics towards foot ulcers. This study aimed to evaluate the association of Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG), Postprandial Plasma Glucose (PPPG), HbA1C, and Body Mass Index (BMI) with diabetic foot ulcers. Methods: This is a hospital-based observational study where patients with diabetic foot ulcers were recruited. The diabetic ulcers gradation was according to Wagner’s classification, followed by the collection of detailed demographic, clinical and biochemical. Dat.. Read More»
