Overview

Cross-sectional observational study assesses podiatric risk and kidney function in people with diabetes, indicating significant associations.

Key Points

  • The research aims to determine the relationship between podiatric risk scores and kidney function in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
  • Cross-sectional observational study with 5,972 participants from 2022–2025.
  • Data categorized based on IWGDF podiatric risk scores and KDIGO kidney function categories.
  • Recorded demographic, anthropometric, hemodynamic, biochemical details, and comorbidities.
  • Significant decrease in participants at podiatric risk stages 0 and 1 across declining CKD categories (p < 0.001).
  • Median eGFR showed significant decline across increasing podiatric risk stages (80 vs. 73 vs. 70 vs. 59; p < 0.001).
  • Age, diabetes duration, smoking, eGFR categories, and albuminuria were independently associated with higher podiatric risk (p < 0.001 for all).
