Elevated HbA1c level associated with disease severity and surgical extension in diabetic foot patients
CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that as HbA1c values at diagnosis increased in patients with diabetic foot; Wagner/PEDIS grades, disease severity, surgical extension, amputation level, and tissue loss increased. To reduce the severity of diabetic foot disease and prevent amputation, compliance with diabetic treatment and glycemic control should be increased.PMID:37681727 | DOI:10.14744/tjtes.2023.08939
