Abstract:

Objective To investigate the changes of serum fibroblast growth factor 2(FGF-2),lipoprotein-related phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2) and insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1) levels in patients with diabetic foot and the correlation with disease severity. Methods A total of 120 diabetic foot patients were enrolled as diabetic foot group. According to the Wagner classification,the diabetic foot patients were classified into grade 0-1 group(40 cases) and grade 2-3 group(48 cases) and grade 4-5 group(32 cases). Totally,60 type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients were enrolled as T2DM group,and 60 healthy subjects were enrolled as control group. The changes of serum FGF-2,Lp-PLA2 and IGF-1 levels were evaluated,and Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between the above indicators and the degree of diabetic foot disease. Results The levels of serum FGF-2 and Lp-PLA2 in control group,T2DM group and diabetic foot group were increased in turn(P<0.05),and the level of serum IGF-1 was decreased in turn(P<0.05). In diabetic foot patients,the levels of serum FGF-2 and Lp-PLA2 in grade 0-1 group,grade 2-3 group and grade 4-5 group were increased in turn(P<0.05),while serum IGF-1 level was decreased in turn(P<0.05). Serum FGF-2 and Lp-PLA2 levels were positively correlated with Wagner grade(r values were 0.652 and 0.665,P<0.05),and serum IGF-1 level was negatively correlated with Wagner grade(r=-0.643,P<0.05). Conclusions Serum FGF-2,Lp-PLA2 and IGF-1 levels are closely related to the disease severity of diabetic foot.
