Background: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a major clinical challenge, particularly among patients with refractory ulcers, that often lead to severe complications such as infection, amputation, and high mortality. Innovations supported by strong clinical evidence have the potential to improve healing outcomes, enhance quality of life, and reduce the economic burden on individuals and health care systems.
Objective: To describe the design of the concurrent optical and magnetic stimulation (COMS) therapy Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) study for refractory DFUs (MAVERICKS) trial.

This study aims to systematically assess the therapeutic effectiveness of TiRobot-assisted percutaneous kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty in managing osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Previous studies have suggested that TiRobot-assisted techniques outperform conventional manual procedures in treating this condition, but relevant conclusions remain controversial. A thorough literature retrieval was carried out across 4 major databases: PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science.
