Arteriovenous Fistula Salvage, Durability, and Probable Loss in Renal Patients: A Comprehensive Review of Surgical Techniques Open
Background: Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) remain the gold standard for hemodialysis access in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. However, AVF failure, whether due to thrombosis, stenosis, or maturation failure, poses significant chal…

Diabetic foot infection versus non-infected diabetic foot: contemporary diagnostic criteria, management algorithms, and clinical pitfalls: a focus on differentiating infectious and ischemic etiologies in diabetic foot ulcers Open
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) represent a significant complication of diabetes mellitus, with infection (DFI) and critical limb ischemia (CLI) being key determinants of morbidity and amputation risk. Despite established guidelines from the i…
