Trial summary

Individuals with diabetic neuropathy and Chronic kidney disease (CKD) are 15 times more likely to have a non-traumatic lower extremity amputation compared to those with DM alone . The incidence of DF and its evolution appear to be proportionally related to the stage of CKD . Read more about this study

About this study

Individuals with diabetic neuropathy and Chronic kidney disease (CKD) are 15 times more likely to have a non-traumatic lower extremity amputation compared to those with DM alone . The incidence of DF and its evolution appear to be proportionally related to the stage of CKD . One of the most important causes is vascular calcification, which is common in patients with atherosclerosis, DM, CKD, and elderly .

Various factors, including age, gender, infection severity, local ischemia, diabetes duration, neuropathy, and blood sugar control, are considered potential predictors for DF outcome. However, there remains a lack of complete this study aim to Assessment of predictors of diabetic foot development and outcome in chronic kidney disease patients.

Read the detailed description

About 537 million adults are living with diabetes mellitus (DM). This number is predicted to rise to 643 million by 2030 . Diabetic foot (DF), being one of the most prevalent, severe, and costly complications of DM. It is primarily characterized by skin infections, ulcers, or destruction of deep tissues below the ankle joint. It is commonly associated with neuropathy or vascular disorders in the lower extremities, and in severe cases, it may involve muscles and bones . Ultimately, 19% to 34% of patients with diabetes will suffer from DF during their lifetimes . Around 20% of DF patients may require lower limb amputations, which can be either minor (below the ankle joint) or major (above the ankle joint), and sometimes both .

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ankle Brachial IndexOther

    Normal ABI ranges from 1.0 - 1.4

    • Pressure is normally higher in the ankle than the arm.
    • Values above 1.4 suggest a noncompressible calcified vessel.
    • In diabetic or elderly patients, the limb vessels may be fibrotic or calcified. In this case, the vessel may be resistant to collapse by the blood pressure cuff, and a signal may be heard at high cuff pressures. The persistence of a signal at a high pressure in these individuals results in an artifactually elevated blood pressure value.
    • An value below 0.9 is considered diagnostic of PAD.
    • Values less than 0.5 suggests severe PAD.
    • Individuals with such severe disease may not have sufficient blood flow to heal a fracture or surgical wound; they should be considered for revascularization if they have a non-healing ulcer.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Ankle brachial index as a predictor for diabetic foot

    Ankle brachial index is calculated for each leg. The ABI value is determined by taking the higher pressure of the 2 arteries at the ankle, divided by the brachial arterial systolic pressure. In calculating the ABI, the higher of the two brachial systolic pressure measurements is used. In normal individuals, there should be a minimal (less than 10 mm Hg) interarm systolic pressure gradient during a routine examination. A consistent difference in pressure between the arms greater than 10mmHg is suggestive of (and greater than 20mmHg is diagnostic of) subclavian or axillary arterial stenosis, which may be observed in individuals at risk for atherosclerosis

    Measured: baseline

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Eman Mahmoud Zaky osman, resident doctors (+201102218610, Em827185@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ankle brachial index as a predictor for diabetic foot (time frame: baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06684886, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Nov 2024.
