Scientists reprogram skin cells to heal diabetic wounds
NCT ID NCT02070835
Summary
This study tested whether adding a patient's own specially treated skin cells to a standard skin graft could help heal stubborn diabetic foot ulcers faster and better. It involved 108 adults with diabetes who had non-healing foot wounds. Researchers randomly assigned patients to receive either the new cell-enhanced graft or the standard graft alone to compare healing and safety.
