Key Points

• Amputation risk is linked to CONUT score in diabetes mellitus patients with diabetic foot ulcers.
• The CONUT score was significantly associated with amputation in this patient group, highlighting a key finding.
• Data were analyzed from patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus focusing on nutritional status and amputation outcomes.
• Improving nutritional status may help reduce amputation risks, indicating the need for early nutritional assessments.
