Charcot neuro-osteoarthropathy (CNO) in people with diabetes is linked to frequent emergency hospitalizations, substantial risk of limb amputation, and reduced survival, highlighting urgent need for intensified multidisciplinary care.
A small human cohort study suggests that upper extremity amputation with AMI reconstruction is feasible and may preserve residual limb volume, improve muscle mechanics, and reduce pain and phantom limb symptoms.
A retrospective study of 452 diabetic foot ulcer patients found that SGLT2 inhibitor use was not associated with increased amputation risk at 1 year and was linked to significantly lower mortality (1.1% vs 9.2%) and faster wound healing (44
New research reveals that the brain’s representation of lost limbs remains stable after amputation, challenging long-held beliefs and paving the way for improved treatments for phantom limb pain and advanced neuroprosthetics.
