Evaluating the Therapeutic Efficiency and Efficacy of Blood Purification for Treating Severe Acute Pancreatitis: A Single-Center Data Based on Propensity Score Matching.

Purpose: To evaluate the long-term efficacy and cost-efficiency of blood purification (BP) in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) through single-center data.

Patients And Methods: A total of 155 SAP patients were collected and followed up for 6 months. The participants were divided into control (49 cases) and BP group (106 cases) according to whether they received BP treatment or not.

Association Between Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Fatty Liver Disease and MACCEs in Patients with Diabetic Foot Ulcers: An Ambispective Longitudinal Cohort Study.

Aim: Metabolic dysfunction-related fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is closely related to metabolic disorders. However, the relationship between MAFLD and the prognosis in diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the association between MAFLD and the risk of major adverse cardiac and cerebral events (MACCEs) in patients with DFUs.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease in the elderly with diabetic foot ulcers: A longitudinal cohort study.

This study aimed to explore the association between metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and ulcer recurrence risk in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) through an ambispective longitudinal cohort. From December 2013 to December 2022, a total of 482 inpatients with DFUs (PEDIS grade 3 and above with a severe infection) were eligible for inclusion in this study. This was an ambispective longitudinal cohort study.

Triglyceride Glucose Index is Strongly Associated with a Fragility Fracture in Postmenopausal Elderly Females with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Combined with Osteoporosis: A 6-Year Follow-Up Study.

Purpose: The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index serves as an indicator of insulin resistance (IR), which is also associated with bone metabolism. However, research on the relationship between the TyG index and a fragility fracture in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) or osteoporosis (OP) remains sparse. This study aims to explore the association between the TyG index and fragility fracture risk in postmenopausal elderly females with T2DM combined with OP based on an ambispective cohort study.

The Ratio of Serum Uric Acid to Glycosylated Haemoglobin as a Predictor of All-Mortality in Elderly Patients with Diabetic Foot Ulcers: A Longitudinal Cohort Study.

Aim: To clarify the relationship between serum uric acid (UA) and glycosylated hemoglobin (UA/HbA1c) ratio and all-cause mortality in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).

Methods: A total of 172 inpatients with DFUs (PEDIS grades 2-4) were eligible for inclusion in this study from 2018 to 2023. This was a retrospective, longitudinal cohort study.

A Novel Wound Therapy Modality: Autologous Wound Edge Dotted Full-Thickness Skin Grafting Improving Diabetic Foot Ulcer Healing.

Aim: To explore the therapeutic efficacy of autologous wound edge-dotted full-thickness skin grafting in improving diabetic foot ulcer healing.

Methods: Sixty-three patients were divided into three groups: conventional wound therapy (CWT) (n = 23), platelet-rich plasma (PRP) (n = 20), and graft (n = 20). All participants were followed up for 12 weeks.

Triglyceride-glucose index is strongly associated with all-cause mortality in elderly females with diabetic foot ulcers: A 9-year follow-up study.

This study aims to explore the association between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and all-cause mortality in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) through an ambispective cohort study. A total of 555 inpatients with DFUs were qualified to participate in the trial study from 2013 to 2022. Throughout a median 63-month period, all subjects were followed up every 6 months.
