Major and minor lower-extremity amputation is a common complication among diabetics. Various sources indicate diabetic foot ulcer prevalence at between 2.2% and 15% in diabetics. This study evaluates the efficacy and tolerance of a standardized plant extract combination, Circulat, developed for the prevention and treatment of severe manifestations of type 2 diabetes, such as necrotic damage of the foot. Thus, a retrospective cohort study was carried out in 174 patients treated with Circulat with diabetic foot grades D1-D3, according to The University of Texas Wound Classification System, in 50 medical centers, from 2004 to 2007. Circulat obtained 50.57% complete cure of diabetic foot, significant improvement in 37.9% and prevented amputation in 88.5% of the study's total population. The treatment was well tolerated. Four patients (2.3%) had slight gastrointestinal unrest which did not warrant suspension of treatment.

I am assuming that english was not the first language of the authors and something was lost in translation, but what were those results compared to? A control group?

I was thinking of posting a similar response. It appears the authors are from Venezuela and they have a funny definition of the 'diabetic foot', so maybe it in the translation. It also appears that there was no control group.
