Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether topic insulin is effective to accelerates wound healing in diabetes patients

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: topic cream insulin
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

Wound healing is impaired in diabetes mellitus, but the mechanisms involved are not well established. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a topic insulin cream on wound healing in diabetic patients. age eligible for study:18 years old-older gender eligible for study:both accepts healthy volunteers:no have a proband with T1DM or T2DM. A proband is an individual with more than one year of diagnosis.

have proband with a wound that is difficult to be healed for at least three months.

patients with serum creatinine <1.5mg/dl Does not satisfy the above inclusion criteria infection diagnosed wound patients with cellulitis, venous stasis, inadequate perfusion, osteomyelitis and patient's inability to attend clinics for follow up

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Placebo Comparator: vehicle cream

Intervention: Placebo cream vehicle. Patients with wounds for more than 3 months without infection. These patients were treated with placebo cream (cream with the same constitution but without insulin). The placebo cream vehicle was used for 8 weeks.

Drug: topic cream insulin
Intervention: Placebo cream versus insulin cream. Patients with wounds for more than 3 months without infection. These patients were treated with placebo cream or insulin cream. The placebo or insulin were used for 8 weeks.
Other Names:
  • wound healing
  • insulin cream
  • diabetes
  • Placebo Comparator: cream insulin

    Intervention: insulin cream. Patients with wounds for more than 3 months without infection. These patients were treated with insulin cream (cream with the same constitution but with insulin). The insulin cream was used for 8 weeks.

    Drug: topic cream insulin
    Intervention: Placebo cream versus insulin cream. Patients with wounds for more than 3 months without infection. These patients were treated with placebo cream or insulin cream. The placebo or insulin were used for 8 weeks.
