A cross-sectional clinical analysis on diabetic foot ulcer and associated risk management.
Article in Indian journal of pharmacology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundDiabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a serious complication of diabetes mellitus, leading to significant morbidity and an increased risk of amputation. This study aimed to determine the clinical profile and associated risk factors of DFU patients at a tertiary care center in Chennai, India. MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional study of 189 DFU patients was conducted from September 2018 to August 2019. Data on patient demographics, diabetes history, and risk factors were collected and analyzed.
resultsThe mean age of the patients was 62 ± 11 years, with 67.7% being male. Uncontrolled diabetes was observed in 88.9% of patients and 85.2% had peripheral neuropathy. Other significant risk factors included a history of trauma (67.7%), smoking (51.3%), and low socioeconomic status (64%). DFUs were more common in elderly males with uncontrolled diabetes. Peripheral neuropathy, trauma, and smoking were identified as major risk factors.
conclusionsEarly detection of peripheral neuropathy and patient education on foot care are crucial for prevention.
