Abstract:
Objective To explore the risk factors for lower extremity amputation in patients with diabetic foot.Methods The clinical data of 1 771 patients with diabetic foot at the Air Force General Hospital of PLA from November 2001 to April 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into the non-amputation and amputation groups.Within the amputation group , subjects were further divided into the minor and major amputation subgroups.Binary logistic regression analyses were used to assess the association between risk factors and lower extremity amputation.Results Among 1 771 patients with diabetic foot , 323 of them ( 18.24%) were in the amputation group ( major amputation: 41; minor amputation:282 ) and 1 448 ( 81.76%) in the non-amputation group.Compared with non-amputation patients, those in the amputation group had a longer hospital stay and higher estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)levels.Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), C-reaction protein (CRP), ESR, ferritin, fibrinogen and WBC levels of the amputation group were higher , while hemoglobin albumin, transferrin, TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C were lower than those of the non-amputation group (all P<0.05 ).The proportion of hypertension ( 52.48% vs 59.98%) , peripheral vascular disease ( PAD ) (68.11% vs 25.04%), and coronary heart disease (21.33% vs 28.71%) were different between the amputation and non-amputation groups (all P<0.05).Multivariable logistic regression analyses showed that Wagner′s grade , PAD and CRP were the independent risk factors associated with lower extremity amputation in hospitalized patients with diabetic foot.Conclusion Wagner′s grade, ischemia of lower limbs and infection are closely associated with amputation of diabetic foot patients.
