Correlation Analysis of Lower Limb Venous Dilation in Patients With Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Our findings indicate that venous dilation in the affected lower limb is a common occurrence in patients with DFU. Male gender, duration of diabetes, and SBP, but not localized arterial stenosis or serum inflammatory markers, were independent predictors for venous dilation below the knee. Understanding these correlations could contribute to the broader understanding of diabetes-related venous complications.
