The sample included 108 newly diagnosed cases with DFU and 215 control participants with T2DM unaffected by and free of foot ulcers (1:2 ratio). Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the DFU predictors and to examine the association of DFU and vitamin B12 deficiency.Results: The highest DFU rates were found among the male participants and the participants older than 45 years. Neuropathy, vasculopathy, vitamin B12 deficiency, poor glycemic control, poor feet self-care, Charcot foot, physical inactivity, and spending long time standing at work were significantly associated with DFU, and all except physical inactivity and spending long time standing at work were independent predictors of DFU. After adjustment for the covariates, vitamin B12 deficiency was significantly associated with DFU (odds ratio 3.1), indicating that the patients with T2DM and vitamin B12 deficiency had a three times higher risk of developing DFU than those with normal vitamin B12 levels.Conclusion: Vitamin B12 deficiency had a significant association with DFU among the Saudi participants with T2DM. Establishing the causality and clarifying the biological role of vitamin B12 deficiency in DFU is important aims for future studies.Keywords: vitamin B12 deficiency, foot ulcer, type 2 diabetes mellitus, Jazan, Saudi ArabiaBadedi MDarraj HHummadi ASolan YZakri IKhawaji ADaghreeri MBudaydi ADove Medical Pressarticlevitamin b12 deficiencyfoot ulcertype 2 diabetes mellitusjazansaudi arabiaSpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 12, Pp 2589-2596 (2019) |
