So, the present study was aimed that to determine the bacterial and clinical profile of diabetic foot ulcer using optimal culture techniques. Methods: This prospective study was conducted on Type 2 Diabetic patients with foot ulcer. Around 206 total cases were enrolled on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria. The duration of study was over a period of two years. Results: The result of this study revealed that causative agent of DFU were found due to aerobic in n = 170 cases whereas anae robic bacteria in n = 36 cases.

    3 - Hydroxy - 3 - methylglutaryl - coenzyme, a reductase inhibitors (statins) are widely used drugs to reduce lipid levels by inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis. Simvastatin, a lipophilic statin is one of the most frequently prescribed statin drugs throughout th e world due to profound reductions in LDL - C with excellent tolerability, with very little risk of important adverse effects, to a lower extent. It also reduce triglycerides and increase high - density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Beside this, studies on simvastatin have shown to exhibit numerous pleiotropic effects, has beneficial effect on endothelial function, smooth muscle cell function, haemostasis, vascular wall function, LDL oxidation, kidney diseases, inflammation and anticarcinogenic effects on ma ny types of cancer including prostate, breast hepatic and colon carcinoma. In this review, we present a
