Prevalence and Risk Evaluation of Diabetic Complications of the Foot Among Adults With Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes in a Large Canadian Population (PEDAL Study)
2021, Canadian Journal of DiabetesCitation Excerpt :Hallux valgus has been a predominant deformity, affecting 13.5% of our T2D cohort and ranging from 17.4% (17) to 31% (18) in other series. Hyperkeratosis was present in half of our cohort, similar to previous findings in screening at 16 French diabetes clinics (45%) (15). Hyperkeratosis is independently associated with increased plantar pressures and, therefore, DFU risk (10,37).
Prediction of post-interventional physical function in diabetic foot ulcer patients using patient reported outcome measurement information system (PROMIS)
2021, Foot and Ankle SurgeryCitation Excerpt :DFU patients are often immunocompromised as uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM) impairs T- and B-cells [33]. DM patients frequently have comorbid chronic conditions, such as hypertension, peripheral neuropathy (PN), renal diseases, and peripheral arterial disease [32,34,35], all of which make this population a unique and challenging cohort to study and treat. Infected DFU, if delayed or left untreated, may lead to devasting outcomes such as a limb loss.
The prevalence of diabetic foot disease in the Waikato region
2017, Diabetes Research and Clinical PracticeCitation Excerpt :It is estimated that 70% of all non-traumatic lower limb amputations are due to diabetes [3–5]. International prevalence studies have identified that foot screening across the general diabetic population using key screening tools such as the 10 g monofilament, tuning fork 128 Hz and palpation of pedal pulses are beneficial in determining the prevalence of diabetic foot disease [6–10]. In New Zealand there are approximately 4.7 million people with 242,000 people who have a diagnosis of diabetes, with almost 100,000 people undiagnosed and a further 500,000 people with pre-diabetes (HbA1c 41–49 mmol/mol) [11,12].
Prevalence of diabetic foot disorders and related risk factors among Egyptian subjects with diabetes
2015, Primary Care DiabetesCitation Excerpt :There is a wide variation reported in the prevalence of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), ranging between 5.3 and 10.5% [13]. Our study is in agreement with the study conducted by the French Working Group on the Diabetic Foot where 7.2% of the patients had a history of ulceration and/or amputation (6.3% with history of ulceration, 3.24% with history of amputation) and were therefore at very high-risk of (re)ulceration [14]. In agreement with our results, several studies had concluded that foot ulceration is more common in patients with previous history of ulceration or amputation.
Risk factors for foot ulcers - A cross sectional survey from a primary care setting in Brazil
2014, Primary Care DiabetesCitation Excerpt :Half of the non-traumatic amputations among individuals with DM occur as a consequence of diabetic foot [6], and ulcers are present in around 85% of these cases [7,8]. The following risk factors for the development of foot ulcers stand out: peripheral vascular disease [9,10], peripheral neuropathy [10,11], prior ulceration [9,10,12], longer duration of diabetes [13,14], poor glycemic control [10], fungal diseases on the feet [5,12] and failure to self examine the feet [10]. In Brazil, health care for DM patients is mostly done within the public primary health care services [15], which are responsible for health care within a given geographical area.
