Background: Worldwide, the treatment of complications associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus, including diabetic foot ulcer (DFU), results in an economic burden for patients and healthcare systems. This study aimed to use high-throughput 165 rRNA gene sequencing to investigate the changes in foot skin microbiome of patients with diabetes mellitus from a single center in China.Material/Methods: Fifty-two participants were divided into 4 study groups: healthy controls (n=13); patients with short-term di- abetes (10 years; n=13). Swabs were analyzed from the intact skin of the foot arch using high-throughput 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing.Results: Microbiome phylogenic diversity varied significantly between the study groups (whole tree, P
