title: New treatments for diabetic neuropathic foot ulceration: views from a wound healing unit.
abstract: The management of diabetic foot ulceration remains problematic despite advances in treatments. The evidence for many treatments is lacking and clinical experience remains important. Current diabetic foot ulcer management and an evaluation of new therapies are discussed. Research in wound healing and diabetic foot disease can complement each other in accurately evaluating and treating diabetic foot ulceration. This would aid in formulating personalized therapies, tailoring treatments to optimize the ulcer healing environment.
