SCORE2-Diabetes: 10-year cardiovascular risk estimation in type 2 diabetes in Europe.
variables (i.e. age at diabetes diagnosis, glycated haemoglobin [HbA1c] and creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR]). Models were recalibrated to CVD incidence in four European risk ...
Evolution of patient characteristics and outcomes concerning diabetic foot ulcer care in Belgium between 2008 and 2020
2 diabetes (2008: 87.8%; 2020: 91.2%; p=0.0013). Comorbidity rates were high. Presentation to the MDFC on the patient’s own initiative strongly elevated over time (collected since 2011: 20.6%; 2020: 35.1%; ...
Sex differences in diabetic foot ulcer severity and outcome in Belgium
associated with a higher probability of ulcer healing as a first event. Among many possible contributing factors, a worse vascular state associated with a higher rate of (previous) smoking in men stands out. ...
The COVID-19 pandemic minimally interfered with delivery of care and did not result in worse outcomes of diabetic foot ulcers in Belgium
major amputation or death as first event were assessed by Cox proportional hazards regression. Results: Although overall offloading rates for plantar DFU did not differ, patients that presented during ...
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the presentation rate and severity of diabetic foot ulcers in Belgium
presentation rate and severity of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) at presentation in Belgian DFC s. Materials and methods: A multicentre, prospective cohort study was done among 22 recognized DFC s in Belgium in ...
The COVID-19 pandemic strongly reduced the presentation rate of diabetic foot ulcers in Belgium, but the impact on severity was limited to slightly larger lesions
reluctant to visit the hospital. This study investigates the impact of the lockdown on presentation rate and diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) severity at presentation. Method: Within the ongoing national care ...

Decreasing rates of major lower-extremity amputation in people with diabetes but not in those without: a nationwide study in Belgium.
lower-extremity amputations (LEA s) is one of the main goals in diabetes care. Our aim was to estimate annual LEA rates in individuals with and without diabetes in Belgium, and corresponding time trends. METHODS: ...
Declining offloading rates in Belgian Recognized Diabetic Foot Clinics (RDFC): results from an audit-feedback quality improvement initiative.
2013/14 are described in table 3. For plantar ulcers, the overall offloading rate diminished significantly between 2011 and 2013/14, from 84.6% to 76.3% (P=0.01). A non-significant decrease was observed in ...
Initiative for Quality Improvement and Epidemiology in Multidisciplinary Diabetic Foot Clinics (IQED-Foot)- Results of the 4th data collection (audit years 2013-2014)
literature. Rates of knee-high immobilisation were high and immobilisation durations were short. However, it seems that the short immobilisation duration was paralleled by a high recurrence rate. This finding ...
