| Abstract | ||
| Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) represents a serious and debilitating outcome of poorly managed diabetes, typically appearing as ulcers on the bottom of the foot. It's estimated that around 15% of people with diabetes will experience DFU at some point. The development of DFU is driven by three key factors: nerve damage, poor blood circulation, and infections that occur as a result. Conventional treatment combined with innovative strategies such as stem cell therapy can help lessen complications, lower the risk ofamputation, and improve survival rates. | ||
