Table 1_Staged antibiotic-loaded cement-based reconstruction versus flap-based reconstruct

56 patients with type 2 diabetes and osteoporosis were retrospectively analyzed from January 2020 to December 2024. The study compares a staged antibiotic-loaded bone cement pathway with negative pressure wound therapy (AB-NPWT) against flap transplantation for complex diabetic foot defects. The dataset was authored by Hanlin Zhang and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Compare surgical trauma metrics like operative time and blood loss between two treatment pathways.
• Analyze wound healing and limb salvage rates at 12-month follow-up.
• Investigate complication profiles associated with different surgical approaches.
• Evaluate functional outcomes using AOFAS scores reported in the study.

Strengths

• Dataset includes 56 patient records with a defined study period from 2020 to 2024.
• Analysis includes adjusted methods like multivariable regression and propensity score matching to account for confounding.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The study is a retrospective exploratory cohort with non-randomized treatment allocation, as noted in the description.
