Identification of patients with foot ulcers at risk for amputation remains clinically challenging. Plasma copeptin, a surrogate marker of vasopressin, is associated with the risk of cardiovascular and renal complications in diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We assessed the association between baseline plasma copeptin and risk of LEA 1Department of Diabetology, Endocrinology and during follow-up in four cohorts of people with type 1 (GENESIS, n 5 503, and Nutrition, DHU FIRE, Bichat Hospital, Assistance GENEDIAB, n 5 207) or type 2 diabetes (DIABHYCAR, n 5 3,101, and SURDIAGENE, Publique – Hopitauxˆ de Paris, Paris, France 2 n 5 1,452) with a median duration of follow-up between 5 and 10 years.
