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.
