Abstract
To examine the association of biochemical markers of risk (plasma Hcy, microalbuminuria, lipoprotein (a)(Lp(a)) and diabetic dyslipidaemia) with the prevalence of diabetic foot ulceration in type 2 diabetic patients. Case/control study conducted in 198 type 2 diabetic patients. 89 patients have foot ulcers and 109 have no foot ulcers (control group), in order to establish ORs for diabetic foot ulceration. In all subjects plasma Hcy, Lp(a), total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, HbA(1c) and microalbuminuria were measured using standard procedures. Plasma Hcy, microalbuminuria, HbA(1c) and apolipoprotein B levels were significantly higher in patients with foot ulceration compared with the control group. Plasma lipids, Lp(a), vitamin B12 and folic acid values were similar in both groups. In the logistic regression model, plasma Hcy (OR 1.09; 95% CI 1.04-1.69), microalbuminuria (OR 1,01; 95% CI 1.01-1.17) and HbA(1c) levels (OR 1.33; 95% CI 1.04-1.69) were independent risk factors for the presence of diabetic foot ulceration. In our study, for each micromol increase in plasma Hcy levels there was a 10% increase in the risk of diabetic foot ulcer...Continue Reading
