We aimed to study post-operative risk profile as a function of diabetes control in patients with lower extremity fractures and predicted that as diabetic control proceeded towards extreme neglect, we would see a commensurate rise in major complications.}, url = {http://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8289}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/mp48sd327}, }
