Patients with DFU and amputation were included in the study. The logistic regression model was adjusted for demographic characteristics and related comorbidities between major and minor amputation groups.Results: Among 3654 patients with DFU, 363 (9.9%) were amputated. Patients with major versus minor amputation, in multivariable logistic regression models, major amputation independent factors included previous amputation history (odds ratio [OR] 2.31 [95% CI 1.17– 4.53], p = 0.02), smoking (2.58 [1.31– 5.07], p = 0.01), coronary artery disease (CAD) (2.67 [1.35– 5.29], p = 0.03), ankle brachial index (ABI) < 0.4 (15.77 [7.51– 33.13], p < 0.01), Wagner 5 (5.50 [1.89– 16.01], p < 0.01), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) (1.23 [1.03– 1.48], p = 0.01), glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (1.23 [1.03– 1.48], p = 0.03), hemoglobin (Hb) (0.98 [0.96– 1.00], p = 0.01), plasma albumin (ALB) (0.88 [0.81– 0.95], p < 0.01) and white blood cell (WBC) (1.10 [1.04– 1.16], p < 0.01).Conclusion: Major amputation was associated with previous amputation history, smoking, CAD, Wagner 5, ABI < 0.4, HbA1c, Hb, ALB, WBC, and APTT might be a new independent factor. In view of these factors, early prevention and guidance promptly orientated by multidisciplinary is of great significance to reduce the disability rate and economic burden.Keywords: diabetic foot ulcers, risk factors, major amputation, minor amputation, retrospective analysisLu QWang JWei XWang GXu YDove Medical Pressarticlediabetic foot ulcersrisk factorsmajor amputationminor amputationretrospective analysisSpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 14, Pp 2019-2027 (2021)
