Reduction in femoral neck and total hip bone mineral density following hospitalisation for diabetes-related foot ulceration

Abstract Management of diabetes-related foot ulceration (DFU) includes pressure offloading resulting in a period of reduced activity. The metabolic effects of this are unknown. This study aims to investigate changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition 12 weeks after hospitalisation fo...
