Novel antimicrobial strategies for diabetic foot infections: addressing challenges and resistance.
Aims: This review examines the challenges posed by Diabetic Foot Infections (DFIs), focusing on the impact of neuropathy, peripheral arterial disease, immunopathy, and the polymicrobial nature of these infections. The aim is to explore the factors contributing to antimicrobial resistance and assess the potential of novel antimicrobial treatments and drug delivery systems in improving patient outcomes.
Method: A comprehensive analysis of existing literature on DFIs was conducted, highlighting the multifactorial pathogenesis and polymicrobial composition of these infections. The review delves into the rise of antimicrobial resistance due to the overuse of antimicrobials, biofilm formation, and microbial genetic adaptability. Additionally, it considers glycemic control, patient adherence, and recurrence rates as contributing factors to treatment failure. Emerging therapies, including new antimicrobial classes and innovative drug delivery systems, were evaluated for their potential efficacy.
Results: DFIs present unique treatment challenges, with high rates of antimicrobial resistance and poor response to standard therapies. Biofilm formation and the genetic adaptability of pathogens worsen resistance, complicating treatment. Current antimicrobial therapies are further hindered by poor glycemic control and patient adherence, leading to recurrent infections. Novel antimicrobial classes and innovative delivery systems show promise in addressing these challenges by offering more targeted, effective treatments. These new approaches aim to reduce resistance and improve treatment outcomes.
Conclusion: DFIs remain a clinical challenge due to their multifactorial nature and antimicrobial resistance. The development of novel antimicrobials and drug delivery systems is crucial to improving patient outcomes and combating resistance. Future research should focus on enhancing treatment efficacy, reducing resistance, and addressing patient adherence to reduce the burden of DFIs.
期刊介绍:
Acta Diabetologica is a journal that publishes reports of experimental and clinical research on diabetes mellitus and related metabolic diseases. Original contributions on biochemical, physiological, pathophysiological and clinical aspects of research on diabetes and metabolic diseases are welcome. Reports are published in the form of original articles, short communications and letters to the editor. Invited reviews and editorials are also published. A Methodology forum, which publishes contributions on methodological aspects of diabetes in vivo and in vitro, is also available. The Editor-in-chief will be pleased to consider articles describing new techniques (e.g., new transplantation methods, metabolic models), of innovative importance in the field of diabetes/metabolism. Finally, workshop reports are also welcome in Acta Diabetologica.
