Risk factors of diabetic nephropathy with retinopathy by Liang Dong-rui, Li Xiao-dong, Fu Yan, Chai Feng-ting, Li Bao-xin

“…ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors and relationship of diabetic nephropathy （DN） with diabetic retinopathy （DR）.MethodsBetween January 2017 and January 2021，type 2 DN patients were divided into DN &amp; retinal group （observation，<italic>n</italic>=160） and DN &amp; non-retinal group （control，<italic>n</italic>=90）.General profiles and clinical parameters of two groups were compared.Binary Logistic regression statistical method was employed for variables with statistical differences.ResultsWhen observation and control groups were compared，systolic pressure （SBP），cystatin C （Cys C），LDL-C，HbA1C，24 h urethral protein （24 Upro） and serum uric acid （SUA） were higher and the difference was statistically significant （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.01）.For variables with statistical differences，binary Logistic regression analysis indicated that Cys C，HbA1C and 24 Upro were independently correlated in observation group （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05）.ConclusionThe independent risk factors of DN patients with retinopathy include Cys C&gt;1.0 mg/L （<italic>OR</italic> 1.556，95%<italic>CI</italic>1.125-1.783），HbA1C（%） &gt;8.0 <italic>OR</italic> 1.545，95%<italic>CI</italic>（1.114-2.234） and 24 h Upro &gt;3.0g （<italic>OR</italic> 1.569，95%<italic>CI</italic>（1.227-2.256）.Early measures of diagnosis and treatment should be implemented for improving the survival and prognosis of DN patients.…”
