Abstract

Holman et al. describe regional variation in lower limb amputation rates across England. In addition to confirming a >20-fold increased amputation risk associated with diabetes mellitus, they also report a 10-fold difference in amputation rates in individuals with diabetes mellitus between 151 Primary Care Trusts of the National Health Service.

Editor's Choice - Incidence of Lower Limb Amputations in Sweden from 2008 to 2017

Gustav Jarl, Gretar Anton Johannesson, Michael Carlberg, Stefan P. O. Jansson, Ayako Hiyoshi

Summary: This study examined the incidence of lower limb amputations (LLAs) in Sweden and found that the overall incidence has decreased during the study period. The decline was mainly due to a decrease in high proximal and low proximal amputations. No change in the incidence of partial foot amputations was observed. Regional variations in incidence were also found. Further research is needed to explore these variations.

Outcomes after minor lower limb amputation for peripheral arterial disease and diabetes: population-based cohort study

Panagiota Birmpili, Qiuju Li, Amundeep S. Johal, Eleanor Atkins, Sam Waton, Ian Chetter, Jonathan R. Boyle, Arun D. Pherwani, David A. Cromwell

Summary: Patients with diabetes and peripheral arterial disease who undergo minor amputation are at a high risk of subsequent major amputation and death. Risk factors for major amputation include male sex, severe frailty, diagnosis of gangrene, emergency admission, foot amputation, and previous or concurrent revascularization. Older age, severe frailty, comorbidity, gangrene, and emergency admission are associated with a significantly higher risk of mortality.

Recalled Number of Falls in the Past Year-Combined With Perceived Mobility-Predicts the Incidence of Future Falls in Unilateral Lower Limb Prosthesis Users

Moaz Tobaigy, Brian J. Hafner, Andrew Sawers

Summary: The number of recalled falls and Prosthetic Limb Users Survey of Mobility T-scores can predict the incidence of falls over the next 6 months in unilateral lower limb prosthesis users. The final model may serve as a screening tool for clinicians to assess risk of falls in this population. Further research is needed to validate the proposed model.

Lower limb joint-specific contributions to standing postural sway in persons with unilateral lower limb loss

Courtney M. Butowicz, Adam J. Yoder, Shawn Farrokhi, Brittney Mazzone, Brad D. Hendershot

Summary: In individuals with lower limb loss, hip, knee, and ankle joint motions influence postural sway during standing balance. Specifically, increasing intact-side hip flexion, knee extension, and ankle plantarflexion motion increases postural sway. With vision removed, a re-weighting of lower limb joint sensory mechanisms may control postural sway, indicating a potential increase in fall risk.

Impact of Ischemia Duration on Lower Limb Salvage in Combat Casualties

Zane B. Perkins, Alexander J. Kersey, Joseph M. White, Alexis L. Lauria, Brandon W. Propper, Nigel R. M. Tai, Todd E. Rasmussen

Summary: The study found that successful limb salvage is closely related to the duration of ischemia, with a 10% reduction in the probability of successful limb salvage for every hour delay to revascularization. Military trauma systems should prioritize rapid hemorrhage control and early limb revascularization.

Morphological variation in paediatric lower limb bones

Laura Carman, Thor F. Besier, Julie Choisne

Summary: There are two methods for generating paediatric musculoskeletal geometry: scaling generic adult geometry, which is widely accessible but inaccurate, and obtaining geometry from medical imaging, which is accurate but time-consuming and costly. A population-based shape model was developed to generate accurate and accessible musculoskeletal geometry in a paediatric population. The model accurately predicted bone geometry without the need for medical imaging.

After scaling to body size hip strength of the residual limb exceeds that of the intact limb among unilateral lower limb prosthesis users

Andrew Sawers, Stefania Fatone

Summary: The purpose of this study was to test whether there were differences in hip strength between the residual and intact limbs of lower limb prosthesis users. The results suggest that the intact limb is weaker compared to the residual limb, which may be due to methodological choices or biomechanical demands on the residual limb hip muscles. Further research is needed to confirm, expand upon, and elucidate the findings, as well as clarify the contributions of intact and residual limb hip muscles to walking and balance in lower limb prosthesis users.

Artificial referred sensation in upper and lower limb prosthesis users: a systematic review

Michael Gonzalez, Alex Bismuth, Christina Lee, Cynthia A. Chestek, Deanna H. Gates

Summary: This systematic review explored the parameters, qualities, and assessment methods of referred sensation induced by electrical stimulation in individuals with limb loss. The most commonly adjusted parameter was amplitude, and pressure, paresthesia, and vibration were the most reported qualities. Most studies evaluated the functional benefits of sensation, while fewer studies quantified subjective measures. Direct comparisons between studies were limited by variability in methodologies and outcome measures.

Time trends (2001-2019) and sex differences in incidence and in-hospital mortality after lower extremity amputations among patients with type 1 diabetes in Spain

Ana Lopez-de-Andres, Rodrigo Jimenez-Garcia, Valentin Hernandez-Barrera, Javier de-Miguel-Diez, Jose M. de-Miguel-Yanes, Ricardo Omana-Palanco, David Carabantes-Alarcon

Summary: The study found a decrease in the incidence rates of minor and major lower extremity amputations (LEAs) among both men and women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, in the last two years of the study, there was a slight increase in the incidence of major LEAs in men with T1DM, although this increase was not significant. The incidence of both minor and major LEAs was higher in men compared to women. Female sex was associated with a higher in-hospital mortality (IHM) following major LEAs.

Summary: Lower limb amputation (LLA) remains a health issue that requires long-term care and rehabilitation even in industrial societies. A study on 687 LLA subjects found that factors such as gender, level of amputation, work activity before and after LLA, and prosthesis use were associated with community ambulation (CA) recovery. The use of prosthesis and trans-tibial amputation level were identified as predictors of positive outcomes for participation in social life.

Understanding lower limb muscle volume adaptations to amputation

David P. Henson, Caitlin Edgar, Ziyun Ding, Biranavan Sivapuratharasu, Peter Le Feuvre, Mary E. Finnegan, Rebecca Quest, Alison H. McGregor, Anthony M. J. Bull

Summary: This study aimed to quantify muscle parameters of individuals with limb loss using high resolution MRI and compare them to matched control subjects. The results show that unilateral amputees experience muscle volume loss in the residual limb with compensation dominated by the intact limb, while bilateral amputees exhibit significant volume increases or decreases in specific muscles.

Summary: This study aimed to examine the association between total protein intake and different sources of dietary protein and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in Australians aged 60 years and older over a 12-year period. The findings showed that while total protein intake was not related to HRQoL, higher protein intakes from animal, red meat, and processed animal sources were associated with a deterioration in HRQoL scores over 12 years. Further research is needed to confirm these associations in both healthy and less healthy older adults.

Clinical Utility of Cardiovascular Risk Scores for Identification of People With Type 2 Diabetes More Likely to Benefit From Either GLP-1 Receptor Agonist or SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy

Julian W. Sacre, Dianna J. Magliano, Jonathan E. Shaw

Summary: Differentiating risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) from heart failure hospitalization (HHF) is important in glucose-lowering therapy. Higher cardiovascular risk is associated with a greater increase in HHF compared to MACE. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) may offer greater cardiovascular protection in individuals at highest MACE risk.

The burden and risks of emerging complications of diabetes mellitus

Dunya Tomic, Jonathan E. Shaw, Dianna J. Magliano

Summary: The traditional complications of diabetes mellitus have been well-known, but emerging evidence suggests the existence of a different set of complications. Cancer and dementia have become the leading causes of death in people with diabetes, replacing vascular disease. Additionally, diabetes has been linked to a range of comorbidities, including cognitive decline, functional disability, affective disorders, obstructive sleep apnoea, and liver disease. There is currently no comprehensive review summarizing the burden and risks of these emerging complications.
