Table 1_The relationship between urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio and bacterial profile

Hao Wang's dataset contains clinical data for 325 diabetic foot infection (DFI) patients from a northern Chinese tertiary hospital, collected between 2020 and 2023. It includes urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) levels, 447 identified bacterial isolates, and inflammatory indicators. The data supports a retrospective cross-sectional observational study analyzing the relationship between proteinuria and DFI characteristics.

Use Cases

• Modeling the association between urinary albumin levels and bacterial infection types based on UACR groupings.
• Analyzing the distribution of Gram-positive versus Gram-negative bacteria in diabetic foot infections based on the 447 identified isolates.
• Investigating correlations between proteinuria severity and inflammatory/metabolic markers mentioned in the results.
• Studying polymicrobial versus single-bacterial infection patterns across different patient subgroups defined by UACR.

Strengths

• Includes data for 325 patients with detailed clinical metrics like average diabetes duration (11.9 years) and DFI duration (2.29 months).
• Contains microbiological data from 447 bacterial isolates, categorized by Gram stain and specific pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus.
• Clinical variables are adjusted for confounders like glycemic control, Wagner classification, and peripheral vascular disease, as noted in the methods.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain analytical tasks.
• Data is from a single center in northern China, which may limit generalizability to other populations.
