Abstract The purpose of this project is to look into why people with diabetes have slower wound healing compared to healthy individuals. The goal of the study is to pinpoint the elements that lead to delayed healing, including decreased collagen synthesis, protracted inflammation, inadequate circulation, and altered angiogenesis. The research aims to prevent chronic wound complications and enhance the quality of life for diabetic patients.
