Diabetic Foot, a Complication of Diabetes

Diabetic foot is a kind of lesion in foot or lower limbs, which is caused by Diabetic angiopathy and (or) neurological lesion and infection, etc. It is one of the most serious complications of diabetes, which gives mental and economic burden to patients, patients’ family members and society.
Generally speaking, the causes of diabetes can be divided into 5 kinds: neurological lesion, angiopathy, circulating barrier, immune barrier and decreased insulin growth factors. Among them, the first two are dominant.
In America, 3% of patients with diabetes have foot ulcer. 50% amputation which is not caused by wound is caused by diabetes.
In Britain, experts investigated 469 diabetes patients for 4 years. 10.2% of them have foot ulcer.
In China, in 1996 to 2000, among patients with diabetes,those with diabetic foot take up 2.45%. Amputation rate is as high as 14%.
How to treat it becomes a critical problem. Till now, Immunotherapy is considered the best therapy for two reasons. Firstly, it can treat diabetes and secondly, its differentiation ability can regenerate those necrotic cells in foot, thus treating both diabetes and diabetic foot.
After Immunotherapys are injected into patients’ body, they will differentiate like seed, which will grow in kinds of tissues. A certain amount of autologous Immunotherapy will differentiate into cells which can replace the damaged pancreas islet B cells and secrete insulin once again, thus treating diabetes.
Immunotherapy are initial cells with strong self-renewing and multi-differentiation abilities. They are infused into human body through intravenous injection, and then Immunotherapys will transfer into those necrotic cells in feet, regenerate new cells, thus treating diabetic feet at the same time as well.

In Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, all the above mentioned therapy belong to immunotherapy, which is a syImmunotherapyatic and scientific one. In addition, it is also a combination of western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine, which makes full use of both of them.
