Description
Juan Song and co-authors link two blood ratios with the depth of diabetic foot ulcers in a 2026 study. Foot ulcers in diabetes range from shallow sores to deep wounds that threaten the limb. Standard grading judges the wound alone and skips body-wide inflammation and nutrition.
The team reviewed 136 patients admitted between 2022 and 2024 in China. Both ratios rose steadily as wound grade worsened, and each predicted severe wounds fairly well. Higher albumin and good cholesterol instead guarded against deep grades. Germ testing found staph bacteria most often, with more salt-resistant types in deeper wounds. Cheap blood ratios could help flag ulcers that need urgent care.
