The most difficult aspect of treating diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) is the rising prevalence of multi-drug resistant germs, which necessitates the use of a novel antimicrobial agent.Objective...

Background: Glycated albumin (GA) and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) measurements have been used to track the long-term glycemic management of diabetic patients. Other than glycemia, there are known influences on both glycated proteins. In obese, non-diabetic children, GA levels have been found to be low, while in adult diabetic patients, GA levels have been found to be adversely correlated with body mass index (BMI). The causes of the link between obesity and GA are still unkno...
